Now in its 9th year, Bulmers Live at Leopardstown has established itself as Ireland’s premier racing and live music event, bringing superb international acts to the racecourse over the years. Sister Sledge, The Human League, Fun Lovin’ Criminals, Johnny Marr, and Happy Mondays have lined up alongside some of the best live Irish acts of our times, including The Boomtown Rats, Hot House Flowers, The Coronas and Ash.
Completing this year's stellar list of names this summer will be a band very dear to hearts of Irish music lovers over the decades, The Waterboys!
Mike Scott was already a legend before he moved to Ireland to record and release the iconic album, Fisherman’s Blues. Already his album This is the Sea, with its international hit ‘The Whole of the Moon’ had marked Scott as an inspirational songwriter for his generation, but with Fisherman’s Blues, The Waterboys almost single-handedly revived an interest in Irish traditional music not seen for a couple of generations.
Staking out bold, new territory with fresh approaches and inspirational collaborators has been the defining factor of Scott’s creative flow. Their new album Out Of All This Blue – the band’s twelfth and first double album - is perhaps the most brilliantly daring and accomplished reinvention of The Waterboys to date.
