    Something amazing happens when Hothouse Flowers step onto the stage, something that has been shaped by over thirty years of singing and playing all over the world, yet no two shows have ever been the same! There is a sense of musical adventure - an impulse to reach new heights and depths in music where the unspoken aim is that the band and the audience become one and the world becomes a different place for a while.
    Hothouse Flowers is a rock n’roll band, Hothouse Flowers is a traditional band, and also a soul band.  Despite the bands lengthy career, which is now heading into its fourth decade there is a sense of unfinished business.  Every night they want to play the best gig they have ever played and take the musical risks that can maybe make that possible.  There are still songs to be written and emotions to share.
    This year marks thirty years since Hothouse Flowers’ debut album, ‘People’, was released. It was the most successful debut album in Ireland ever!
    Hothouse Flowers come to The Ruby Room of the The Royal Theatre Castlebar on April 8th 2023 where they will be performing their acclaimed acoustic show with founding members Liam O’Maonlai, Fiachna O’Braonain and Peter O’Toole.

    The music the five friends from Dundalk make is strikingly untraditional. Though to look at them, it appears that the band are a five-piece with uniform make-up of a vocalist, two guitarists, a bassist and a drummer, not a single one of them utilises their instrument in a confined or regular fashion.

    Fire In Cairo  are a Cure Tribute band,  The breath and range of material they cover is impressive, as is the musicianship and execution of the songs. The band also toured Ireland with Cure co-founder Lol Tolhurst.
    "It all happened pretty organically," said guitarist Manolis Pates. "Our Dublin promoter was looking to bring Lol's book tour here and suggested we play after him each night. Once we were put in contact, he agreed to possibly get up and do a song. We actually managed to get him playing on four songs, I think he really enjoyed it."
    Formed in 1995, These Charming Men - Play the music of The Smiths  are a well known as being the premier Smiths and Morrissey tribute act around.
    These Charming Men have toured extensively from Europe, to the USA and Japan, where they replaced Morrissey at the Fuji Rock Festival after he pulled out. Yes, they are that good.
    If you want a realistic and faithful representation of the spirit and music of the Smiths or Morrissey, These Charming Men are your only option
    These two incredible tribute acts come to The Ruby Room of The Royal Theatre Castlebar on Friday October 27th 2023
