THE Gresham Hotel was the place to be last Friday morning (March 21) where legendary Northside rock group Aslan announced details of their much anticipated return to the live arena with a show at the Olympia Theatre on Saturday May 31.
In February 2013 Christy Dignam, the lead singer with ASLAN, was diagnosed with cancer and the band stopped performing live shows.
With the exception of the
‘Night For Christy’ which saw performances from many of Ireland’s best performers including U2, Brezzie, Danny O’Reilly, Ryan Sheridan and Horslips, to name a few, Aslan have not performed as a band for over a year.
Christy, having recently received the news that his treatment is working, has decided that now is the time for him and Aslan to get back to doing what they do best and do a live show.
With this in mind the band will be releasing their new single,
‘I Need a Little Time’, and will perform on the Late Late Show on May 23.
Christy and Aslan would like to thank everyone from the staff at Beaumont Hospital and Blanchardstown Hospital and the fans for all the help and support they have given and cannot wait to hit the stage.
Tickets for the Aslan show on May 31 are priced at
?¬33.50, inclusive of booking fee, and go on sale this Friday, March 28 at 9am from Ticketmaster outlets nationwide and www.ticketmaster.ie
