The Delines perform live at Liberty Hall this evening, January 25.
Evoking the feel of a beat-up Dusty Springfield or a weary Rickie Lee Jones, The Delines' debut album Colfax made a dozen top ten records of the year lists and led to the band selling out venues in the UK, Ireland, and had successful tours in the Europe and Australia.
The Guardian declared them the surprise hit of the End of the Road festival and the band seemed well on their way to international stardom. Then it all came to a stop. Lead singer Amy Boone was hit by a car and put into the hospital and recovery for many months, finally putting the band on hold for over three years.
Now, however, Amy is finally on the mend and The Delines have just released their second album, The Imperial. They'll be showcasing their latest live show at The Liberty Hall, Dublin.
