Event Details
Formed in 2004, the band first came to prominence with You’re a Star singing sensation and internationally renowned George Murphy, who was a finalist on the TV show. He went on to sign with Sony, and had a Number-1, multi-platinum selling album in Ireland.
The band played live shows and recorded albums thereafter, touring extensively and performing in premier venues throughout Europe, America, and Japan.
Rooney, a critically acclaimed songwriter, released his debut album This is My Home at the prestigious Sugar Club in Dublin in 2009. The title track placed Number 3 in the Irish download charts.
Guitarist Browne smashed the world record for marathon guitar playing. In June 2014, he played guitar continuously for 114 hours at the Temple Bar Irish Pub in Temple Bar, Dublin.
Later that year, the band moved to Las Vegas, taking up residency at the Rira Irish Venue, Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino, where they beat the world record for the longest concert ever held. They played for 15 days and 10 hours.
The Black Donnellys Dublin are renowned for their lively performances. From the raucous vocals, musicianship, and remarkable songwriting skills of Dave Rooney, to the rip-roaring fret work and high-octane performance of Dave Browne, this band truly is a breath of fresh air.
