Red Hurley - National Concert Hall 21 August 2018

Red Hurley has been through many significant career phases forgetting more career highlights (over 20 hit records including 5 number 1s, TV specials, multiple sell out tours) than most artists come close to experiencing. Currently enjoying yet another significant comeback with a sell out late 2018 Irish tour and a number 1 album of spiritual classics,aimed at the 2018 papal visit of Pope Francis to Ireland in which 3 of his hit songs are showcased, Red played to a sell out crowd at the National Concert Hall on the 21 August 2018, receiving 2 standing ovations. The hit show featured a host of special guests including a star turn from actor and singer Patrick Bergin (looking and sounding like a latter day Kris Kristofferson) and Red‘s talented & beautiful daughter Stephanie ( a young woman to watch with a soaring voice). Just reaching an age when other artists might be slowing down, Red Hurley’s career is scaling the heights yet again and this true legend is surely one of the great Irish show business survivors. After this sell out autumn solo tour finishes, watch out for Red in 2019 headlining the Ronan Collins 'Reeling in the Showband Years' 10th anniversary tour across Ireland and another 'Stars in the Sun' 2019 Spanish residency (with fellow Eurovision star, Linda Martin). An interesting fact to remember is that Red's more recent chart success, with a slew of successful album releases from 2005 to 2019, places him among the most successful chart acts in Irish show business history with hits in every decade (singles & albums) from the late 1960s to the present day (2018).
