We are delighted to hear that Onfire are bringing the wonderful  Adrian Crowley and Chequerboard to Sligo for a very special gig this June.

Recently listed as No.8 in The Ticket’s ‘Best Irish Acts of Right Now’,  Adrian Crowley with full band will take to the stage of McGarrigles on June 12th.

“Season of the Sparks carries on thematically where the last four albums left off: with the beauty and force of nature (In Inter Cert English, we called it Pantheism). It’s all sparrows, bees, strange birds and dreaming horses. The elements have always been a good theme for Crowley: there’s a synergy between the pastoral lyrics of ‘The Beekeeper’s Wife’, ‘Liberty Stream’ or ‘Season of the Sparks’ and the natural flowing rhythm of the songs. He has always taken care to surround himself with a band capable of conjuring the elemental alchemy you associate with Palace or The Bad Seeds.”
