Ronnie Spector and the Ronettes, the ultimate ‘Girl Group,’ will take to the National Concert Hall stage on Monday 21st of January 2019, 8pm. The concert will mark a full 55 years after the band first crossed the Atlantic and performed on these shores in 1964, and 25 years since Ronnie last performed in Dublin.

A special multimedia presentation will take place at the event, including the likes of exclusive photos and videos of the group that have never been seen previously, on top of the concert that will see them perform their extensive back catalogue of hits that brought them to fame.

Their classic hit 'Be My Baby' has become legendary in its own right, having been named as the No. 1 Greatest Girl Group Song of All Time by Billboard Magazine. The song served as an introduction to Phil Spector’s signature Wall of Sound technique, which is often credited as having resulted in the likes of The Beatles and The Beach Boys to take notice and subsequently adapt their own sound.

Ronnie herself was recently honoured individually, being presented in 2017 with the Legend award by the Women’s International Music Network at the organisation’s annual She Rocks award ceremony, while Ronnie and the Ronettes recently received the Spirit of East Harlem award from the New York–based charity LSA (Little Sisters of the Assumption).

Tickets for Ronnie Spector and the Ronettes at the National Concert Hall go on sale Monday 22nd October at 10am, with prices starting at €45.
