It’s hard to avoid Bob Dylan these days. There’s the acclaimed new film A Complete Unknown, another film due based on Conor McPherson’s stage musical Girl From The North Country with a narrative twined around Dylan songs, and the on-line availability of his own sell-out Rough and Rowdy tours at the age of 83.
Now along comes news of a special tribute show called Bringing Dylan Home “A Bob Dylan Tribute Like No Other” presented by Bree-based performer Paul Kirwan who is already known for his spot-on tributes to singers of the calibre of Johnny Cash and Neil Young.
It will have its premiere in St Michael’s Theatre in New Ross, Co Wexford on Friday, March 28th and tickets are already on sale on the theatre’s website.
Kirwan cut his musical teeth with several bands when he was based in Dublin, and his adventures include supporting the American rock heroes Counting Crows at the famed Bowery Ballroom in New York City.
Key Dylan classics from Kirwan’s New Ross show will include ‘Mr Tambourine Man’ and ‘Tangled Up In Blue’ as well as ‘It’s Alright Ma’ and ‘Like A Rolling Stone’ for both of which award-winning film producer Michael Benson has directed promotional teaser videos.
Bringing Dylan Home at St Michael’s Theatre in New Ross, Co Wexford is staged by Tribute Presents.
