Martin McAloon 40 YEARS: A VERSION

Martin is thrilled to be embarking on his second major UK tour this Autumn –

The run of shows will include his first dates in Ireland for almost quarter of a century!

Although born with the open road in his blood, Prefab Sprout appear to have had a forty-year aversion to playing live and he hopes these new shows “40 YEARS: A VERSION” will address his gigging addiction.

He’ll be revisiting the repertoire written by his brother Paddy, that stretches back through the classic Prefab Sprout albums: Swoon, Steve McQueen, Protest Songs, Langley Park to Memphis, Jordan: The Comeback, Let's Change the World With Music, Andromeda Heights, The Gunman and Other Stories, I Trawl The Megahertz and Crimson / Red.

Expect all the hits and pared-back acoustic versions of Prefab Sprout's most beloved songs, along with some storytelling and the opportunity to meet Martin after the show.

As ever there will be a warm welcome from the St Nick's team, our famous reasonably-priced bar serving craft beer, good wine and a selection of non-alcoholic drinks.

Host or Publisher Rev Mike Peatman
