Premier tribute act Limehouse Lizzy present a stirring tribute to Philip Lynott and Thin Lizzy, and are currently riding the wave of a Thin Lizzy renaissance. 2006 saw them complete their 'Dedication' tour, a celebration of some of the finest songs in rock history. The tour was a massive success, and culminated in the band being featured in a BBC2 documentary.
The Limehouse Lizzy concert footage and interviews were screened nationally as part of the Arena television series in October 2007. Watch the band's websites www.limehouselizzy.com and www.myspace.com/limehouselizzy, as footage from the programme will be added in the coming months...
Due to overwhelming demand, the band are returning in 2008 (their 15th anniversary as a band), complete with their magnificent mirrored backdrop, police lights, and full pyrotechnic display.
Expect Whisky in the Jar, Parisienne Walkways, The Boys are Back in Town, and many more of Phil Lynott's genre-defying hits, alongside some of his cult album tracks and solo material.
