Coronas & The Chapters-Union CY - SOLD OUT

26
Mar

You may have heard of them? The Coronas are back after 2007's LP Heroes or Ghosts went platinum in Ireland and made "San Diego Song" an anthem in clubs and radio stations around the country.

Indeed anyone who has become accustomed to The Coronas own brand of pop-rock tunes will have plenty of reason to cheer when it comes to their new album, Tony Was An Ex-Con, which was released in 2009.

For those unaccustomed The Coronas are a four piece rock/indie/pop band from Terenure in Dublin, they have become increasingly popular in the last few years playing Electric Picnic and Oxegen.  Interestingly enough lead singer Danny O’Reilly is the son of the one and only Mary Black.

The Coronas will also be supported by Dublin band, The Chapters who started 2010 with the release of their fourth single ‘Black Room' from their debut album Perfect Stranger and departed on their biggest tour to date.

The Chapters have been receiving critical acclaim since Perfect Stranger hit the shelves, rocketing into the Hotpress Top 30 albums of 2009, one of only 5 Irish albums in the Top 30. The album also went straight into the same publication’s Top Irish Albums of all time. 

It's been a busy year on the television front for The Chapters also with live performances on RTE's The Café and TTV while numerous tracks from Perfect Stranger have been used on ITV shows such as “Emmerdale” and RTE's “Raw”.

The Coronas and The Chapters will play the Students’ Union Courtyard on Wednesday (March 24). Tickets cost €10 and are available from SU Reception.
