LEGENDARY English punk band The Stranglers will return to Limerick, playing Live at the Big Top venue at The Milk Market on Thursday September 22, 2022.
In a career spanning five decades since their first top ten hit with double A-Side Peaches/Go Buddy Go in 1977, the Stranglers are one of the longest-surviving bands of the punk / post-punk scene.
Major mainstream recognition arrived with their 1982 single Golden Brown. Their other hits include ‘No More Heroes’, ‘Always the Sun’ and ‘Skin Deep’ and the 2004 Top 40 hit ‘Big Thing Coming’.
Interest in The Stranglers resurfaced when, in 2001, singer Tori Amos covered their song Strange Little Girl on her album Strange Little Girls. Golden Brown was used in the hit film Snatch by film director Guy Ritchie and extensively in the Australian film He Died With A Falafel In His Hand.
Tickets for The Stranglers Live at the Big Top in Limerick go on sale this Friday, November 5 at 10am and can be purchased via www.dolans.ie
