LEEDS IRISH CENTRE
York Road - Leeds LS9 9NT -  phone: 0113 248 0887

This unassuming venue is probably the best place in Leeds to see a band.
From Oasis to Elastica, Robert Cray to Curtis Mayfield, Donovan to John Martyn,
 John McLaughlin to the Brecker Brothers, Joe Strummer to The Beautiful South, they've all played here.

About one mile out of the city centre on the York Road (A64) it's on the left if you're approaching from the North
or on your right as you come from town (drivers must double-back under the dual carriageway).

& FRIENDS

 

 Peter Green – lead vocals/ lead guitar/harp;
Mike Dodd – vocals/rhythm guitar;
Geraint Watkins – piano/organ/vocals;
Matt Radford – double bass;
Andrew Flude – drums/vocals

 


In an almost miraculous turnabout, Peter Green has pulled himself out of his long term mental illness.
He is practically back to normal, playing guitar, blues harp and singing like the early days.
This is what people have been saying about his recent tour:


“The place was packed. This is the real Peter Green…..like I always wanted to see him, and now finally, I have.”
(Dingwall’s, London. 12th July 2009)

“This is not a comeback. This is a beautiful person, a great artist, a genius.
A soulful musician live on stage… this wasn't just a concert, this was a great experience.”
(Batschkaap, Frankfurt 15th June 2009)

“To see a genuine legend at such close quarters was a real privilege.
The fact that this newly-rejuvenated Green is getting back to his best, just made it all the more special.”
(Moles Club, Bath 2nd September 2009)


Tickets: £20 advance - £22 door
