The Quireboys Acoustic

Biography

It seems hard to believe that it’s been nearly ten years since The Quireboys made their comeback. With a sound that harks back to the ‘70s  heyday of The Faces, Stones and Mott The Hoople these boys have remained true to their roots ever since they first hit the boards back in 1984. Their mission statement remains the same too, namely to keep the spirit of good time, bar room, rock ‘n’ roll music alive and kicking in to the twenty first century.

The bands line-up may have changed over the years, but the two remaining original members and primary songwriters Spike and Guy ‘Griff’ Griffin still remain steadfast in their belief that the world still needs a healthy dose of good time rock ‘n’ roll music every now and again. Perhaps now more so than ever. I challenge you to go to a Quireboys show and not have a good time.

With keyboard player Keith Weir, guitarist Paul Guerin and drummer Phil Martini, The Quireboys remain one of the best live acts on the road today. So when you hear the words; “We are The Quireboys and  this is rock ‘n’ roll,” you know you’re in for just one thing… a rockin’ good time!

Tonight the boys are showcasing songs from their new acoustic release Halfpenny Dancer, which features reworked versions Quireboys classics such as "There She Goes Again" and "King Of New York" as well as some surprising but appropriate cover versions!
