THE MIGHTY DOONANS,  SATURDAY 7TH APRIL 2018

The Mighty Doonans have played ‘sold out’ Town Hall Live for three years running.  Now the UK’s biggest and best family band are back.

The bands’ amazing stage show, with its glamourous mix of folk, rock and jazz influences leave audiences spell bound and exhilarated.

The Doonans have an enviable reputation for their imaginative interpretations of traditional and contemporary songs, none more so than the Sam Cooke tune ‘Bring it on Home’ or Eddie Pickford’s Johnny Miner.

The Mighty Doonans were created from The Doonan Family Band that included Michael Doonan (pipes, flute, whistle, sax and vocals), Kevin Doonan (fiddle), Phil Murray (bass) and Stu Luckley (guitar, vocals), with new members Frances Doonan (sax, flute and Irish Dance), Ian ‘Walter’ Fairburn (guitars, mandolin) and Stu’s son Jamie on drums to create a musical and vocal powerhouse.

Two other ‘next’ generation family members, Rosie Doonan (Sax, keyboards, vocals) and Ben Murray (keyboards, accordion and vocals) complete the line-up.

 Ben spent time away from the band in 2015 when he appeared as ‘The Songman’ in the West End stage production of War Horse.  In 2017 he reprised the role for the 100 year commemoration of the Battle of Paschendale.

The Mighty Doonans audiences adore Frances Doonans front of stage step dancing to the uplifting music.  They also love Phil and Mick’s comedic between song banter.

It all adds up to a thoroughly entertaining evening that is sure to delight everybody in the audience.

Advance Tickets are priced at £14 and can be obtained from the One Stop store in the town, from Brian on 01652 649230 or from www.wegottickets.
