Steve Earle & The Dukes play the Olympia Theatre in Dublin this October as part of their Irish tour.

American rock, country, and folk singer-songwriter Steve Earle returns to Ireland this October, as part of the European leg of the tour in support of ‘Terraplane’, his latest album with backing band, The Dukes.

With a career spanning more than 30 years (he released his first EP Pink & Black in 1982, which featured The Dukes), Earle is no stranger to these shores, having only played the National Concert Hall in August last year.

Perhaps best known for his ‘Copperhead Road’ album (1988) or more recently for the song ‘Galway Girl’ which appeared on the 2000 album ‘Transcendental Blues’ recorded with Sharon Shannon, his latest release ‘Terraplane’ sees a return to a more blues-orientated sound. Earle’s 16th studio album, which was released in February of this year, runs the gamut of the genre, from acoustic to roadhouse blues, stopping off in Chicago on the way.

MCD presents Steve Earle & The Dukes at The Olympia Theatre on Sunday, 25th October. Special guests on the night are The Mastersons. This is a fully seated show.

Tickets are priced from €38 inclusive of booking fee and are available for purchase online, from Ticketmaster outlets including The Olympia Theatre Box Office, and by calling Ticketmaster at The Olympia Phone Bookings on 0818 719 330.
