Nantwich Civic Hall bosses are pleased to be welcoming back Limehouse Lizzy on Friday (19th January).
Renowned for an action-packed pyrotechnic-fuelled explosion of a show, Limehouse Lizzy continue to keep the spirit of Celtic rock icon Philip Lynott and his band Thin Lizzy dominating stages worldwide.
The band has also added a tribute in their set to the late Gary Moore (ex-Thin Lizzy guitarist and world-renowned solo artist).
Attention to detail, playful audience interaction and that all-important ‘X factor’ that leaves you with the feeling of witnessing the real thing have led to their performances being described as “beyond tribute” by both audience and critics alike.
From their official PRS award to performing for Virgin Atlantic in Barbados, and from tv appearances to being recruited to record and tour by members of the original Thin Lizzy lineup, Limehouse Lizzy’s 25th year has been their most explosive and critically-acclaimed to date.
Despite international tours plus events for corporate clients and even book appearances, they’ve shoehorned a co-headline tour with tribute giants Livewire in 2019, along with their own stand-alone tour, in what will be an exhausting year-long schedule.
Expect the Celtic-influenced tracks like ‘Whisky in the Jar’ and ‘Black Rose amongst the usual razzamatazz and classic tracks including ‘The Boys are Back in Town’, ‘Sarah’ and many others.
Here’s what the national press had to say:
“… Limehouse Lizzy Top PRS for Music’s Hardest Working UK Bands List”
Billboard Magazine
“Limehouse Lizzy’s Wayne Ellis, an uncanny ringer for Phil Lynott”
The Guardian
“If you’re sceptical about tribute acts, you won’t be after seeing Limehouse Lizzy’
Radio Times
“Gig of the week”
The Mirror
