In a summer of amazing concerts in Ireland, The Charlatans’ appearance at Bulmers Live at Leopardstown might be one that has flown under your radar until now.

You should fix that.
The British indie rock band has been on the go since the late 80s, and with good reason. With eleven studio albums under their belt since, this soul/rock act first assaulted the charts in 1990 with debut single “Indian Rope”. The reaction was enough to secure the band a label, and the follow-up “The Only One I Know” was a smash, hitting the top 10 on release. What has followed is twenty-four years of musical magic. If you’re thinking of heading to see the band on August 14th, we’ve got five very good reasons why you should.

The Only One I Know
This is the single that really let The Charlatans make their mark. A top 10 hit in the UK, it reached number 11 in the Irish charts and even broke the US Modern Rock charts, reaching number 5. In 2007, Robbie Williams put his own spin on the track when he covered it for Mark Ronson’s album Version.

Me. In Time
“Me. In Time” was the last single from The Charlatans to really make an impact on the Irish charts, hitting number 12. The first of the band’s songs to feature Mark Collins, its failure to appear on any studio album means that fans go crazy for it. What is seldom is wonderful and all that…

One To Another
The lead single from the band’s fifth studio album, “Tellin Stories”, this was arguably the band’s most successful single, hitting a high of number three in the UK charts. Trivia factoid: One to Another features drum loops provided by Tom Rowlands of The Chemical Brothers.

You’re So Pretty - We’re So Pretty
This song originally featured on the band’s Wonderland album in 2001, and appeared in a Carlsberg advert the following year. A remixed version was released by Youth in 2006. 

Oh! Vanity
Two decades after their launch, The Charlatans were still at the forefront of music innovations. In 2008 “Oh! Vanity” was released as a free digital download, followed by their partnership with Xfm to become the first UK band to release an album completely free to download via a radio station.

Seachtain na Gaeilge at Bewley's Hotels

Fully Irish, family-owned hotel group, Bewley’s Hotels, supporting Seachtain na Gaeilge

4 – 17 March 2013

 Irish, family owned hotel group Bewley’s Hotels have been announced as the official hotel partner for Seachtain na Gaeilge which takes place from 4 – 17 March.

 The group’s four Dublin hotels in Ballsbridge, Leopardstown, Newlands Cross and Dublin Airport will all be supporting Seachtain na Gaeilge by encouraging their staff to use the ‘cúpla focail’ in their daily dealings with guests. All guests arriving at the hotels will be greeted with a great big ‘Céad míle fáilte’, and staff will assist all interested guests in learning some key Irish phrases.

 The set menus and the early bird menus in the Brasserie restaurant in each hotel will be translated into Irish for the two weeks, with some helpful Irish phrases printed on them, so all guests will get a chance to try their hand at ordering ‘as Gaeilge’. The Brasserie restaurants in Bewley’s Hotels already support Irish by ordering from Irish businesses and local suppliers where possible. They are committed to providing choices for diners increasingly concerned with where their food comes from and how it impacts on the environment and their very popular 100% Fully Irish Breakfast features only 100% traceable Irish produce.

 Seachtain na Gaeilge will be running from 4 - 17 March with Irish language events taking place all around Ireland and further afield for its duration! It’s a celebration of our Irish language and culture and whether you are a fluent speaker, a first time learner, young or old, you can take part & enjoy the language! Full list of events on www.snag.ie!

 Bewley’s Hotel Group is part of Moran & Bewley’s hotel group, Ireland’s largest group of independently owned and operated hotels with properties in Dublin, London, Cork, Manchester and Leeds. Each of the hotels is conveniently located for speedy access to city centres, airports, plus major cultural and tourist attractions, which makes a Moran & Bewley’s Hotels the perfect choice for those travelling for business or pleasure.
