Limehouse Lizzy returns to Nantwich

Nantwich Civic Hall is to welcome back the sensational Limehouse Lizzy on Friday 19th January.

Limehouse Lizzy has been named officially as one of the hardest working acts in the UK, alongside some of the country's biggest and most popular performers. 

The band was accredited for its live shows by the Performing Rights Society, and received the award from PRS Chairman and Ivor Novello award-winning songwriter Guy Fletcher OBE (Elvis Presley, Ray Charles, Tom Jones).

Renowned for an action-packed pyrotechnic-fuelled explosion of a show, Limehouse Lizzy continues to keep alive the spirit of Celtic rock icon Philip Lynott and his band Thin Lizzy, dominating stages worldwide. 

The band has also added to their set a tribute to the late Gary Moore (ex-Thin Lizzy guitarist and world renowned solo artist) who sadly passed away last year.

Attention to detail, playful audience interaction and that all important X-factor that leaves you with the feeling of witnessing the real thing have led to Limehouse Lizzy's performances being described as “beyond tribute”, by both audience and critics alike.

Following the enormous success of their "Live & Dangerous” and "Dedication” tours, the band embarked upon the “Into the Limelight” tour to tie in with an appearance on an episode of BBC2’s ‘Arena’ documentary series of the same name.

The tour travelled as far as a headline slot at a rock festival in Greece, and the Virgin Atlantic Music festival in Barbados. The band appeared alongside diverse world music acts, and played a Thin Lizzy set representing the Celtic rock genre.

Expect more of the Celtic influenced tracks like ”Whisky in the Jar” and “Black Rose”, amongst the usual razzamatazz and classic tracks “The Boys are Back in Town”, “Sarah” and many others we’ve come to expect from one of the most highly rated acts on the circuit.

Tickets are just £12 and available from Nantwich Civic Hall, by calling 01270 628633 or online at www.nantwichtowncouncil.gov.uk.
