Music Machine and COH are delighted to announce, after a phenomenal 2009 including some live dates across the globe and selling close to 2 million records world wide, The Priests play Cork Opera House this June.
It was at St. MacNissi’s College near Carnlough in Co Antrim, where Father Eugene O’Hagan, Father Martin O’Hagan and Father David Delargy met for the first time and realised their musical prowess as a singing trio. Nicknamed Holy Holy Holy by their peers due to their shared determination to enter the priesthood, it was a priest at their school who first noticed how talented they actually were.
The Priests have defied record industry convention by just being themselves; middle-aged Roman Catholic priests who sing. Selling close to two million records worldwide to date, a dream story of world class talent wrapped up in an amazing true story spanning a turbulent lifetime of service, faith and music, with no stunts, no stylists, no make-up, no image and no audio trickery.
The Priests have taken the world by storm. Why the success? They simply sing and they sing with belief. The Priests’ brand new album, ‘Harmony’, is available now! The stunning new album features The Priests singing some all-time classics in their own unique way. Father David says of the new album: 'It seems to be bigger, bolder, more confident. There are some very powerful classical pieces on it.'
Join The Priests with special guest Camilla Kerslake (who was discovered by Gary Barlow ) and their orchestra for a concert not to be missed!
Tickets: €40 booking fee may apply
