Join legendary country and Irish performer Alex Black for a very special night as he celebrates 60 remarkable years in music.Over six decades, Alex has become a familiar and much-loved voice on the Irish country music scene. With his rich, low baritone and unmistakable style reminiscent of greats such as Jim Reeves, Big Tom and Don Williams, he has entertained audiences across Ireland and beyond.
Beginning his career in the golden era of the Irish showband scene, Alex built a reputation not only as a gifted performer but also as a talented songwriter, penning songs recorded by a number of well-known country music artists.
This special anniversary concert will take audiences on a journey through Alex’s incredible career — from the early showband days to the many stages and stories that followed.
