Celtic Tenors for Kilcullen

The Celtic Tenors will perform in Kilcullen's parish church on June 18, as part of the Dunlavin Festival of the Arts.

The trio of Matthew Gilsenan, Niall Morris and James Nelson recently released their debut album on the Telarc label, Remember Me. The album features guests such as Samantha Mumba (You Raise Me Up), Brian Kennedy (We Are Not Islands) and an epic version of All Out of Love, featuring Air Supply, recorded at their private studios in Utah, USA.

The Celtic Tenors were invited to sing for ex-President Bill Clinton during his recent visit to Dublin Castle, funding-raising for the Northern Ireland Peace Fund. He now says their version of his favourite song, Danny Boy, is the best he has ever heard.

The Celtic Tenors have appeared on numerous compilation albums, including the Official Rugby World Cup Album 2003, True Colours, The Official Classical Album for the Olympic Games 2004, Harmony, and the huge selling debut album by Liam Lawton, Another World.

Their total album sales worldwide, including compilations, are now at over one million, making them the biggest classical crossover artists ever to come out of Ireland.

Tickets for the Kilcullen event are available at the Parish Centre.
