With in their ranks singer/guitarist Sean Cannon, the man who was part of the Dubliners from 1982 to 2020.

When The Dublin Legends take the stage, within minutes you imagine yourself in an Irish pub. The beating heart of Irish towns and villages, where tales of tough seafarers, fiery romances and unhappy loves go around over a pint of Guinness or a good glass of whiskey. No band can capture that authentic and infectious vibe with as much spirit as the foursome of Seán Cannon, Gerry O'Connor, Shay Kavanagh and Paul Watchorn.

True folk fans may know the musicians better under the legendary name "The Dubliners. That name disappeared when Dubliners frontman John Sheahan quit in 2012, but the legend remained! As did the insanely delicious pub atmosphere, which drags listeners stomping and clapping along through rousing songs and melancholy ballads.

The Dublin Legends bring Irish folk as Irish folk is meant to be. Pure and raw from the heart. They don't need shiny sets and special effects to impress; good Folk carries itself. And the gifted foursome proves that time and again as they rock the room with their enthusiasm and rhythm. Molly Mallone', 'Whiskey in the Jar', Seven Drunken Nights, The Irish Rover and 'Dirty Old Town', all classics you just have to sing along. Ten years after the 50th
