The London Lasses recently announced the release of their 25th anniversary album, LL25. Featuring all new material and including both past and present band members, the recording celebrates the band’s musical journey over the past quarter-century and showcases the powerfully traditional signature sound which they’ve become known for. The album spans four centuries of Irish music, from ‘Planxty Thomas Burke’ penned by the harper- composer Carolan (1670-1738) to newly composed tunes by concertina player Edel Fox, flute player Tommy Fitzharris and harper Michael Rooney. Captivatingly sung by vocalist Bróna McVittie, the album’s songs include the beautiful ‘Bánchnoic Éireann Ó (The Fair Hills of Ireland)’, a song in praise of Ireland dating from the 1700s.

Join The London Lasses to celebrate the launch of LL25 at Matt Molloy’s on Thursday 1st June. Tickets on door.
