Product Description
Release Date : March 5th 2021
Dance To Tipperary are a music genre unto themselves. Their unique combination of thumping rhythms, dub bass lines and rock influences overlaid with traditional references to their Irish roots always alongside stunning vocals established them as one of the most unique and entertaining live Irish music acts of the past 20 years. During their long and productive career Dance To Tipperary have recorded 4 studio albums, notched up 15 Top 30 singles and have had a string of high profile appearances along the way. In addition to their blistering live reputation Dance To Tipperary were one of the first acts to experiment with the dance music cover. These covers were popular songs for clubs, with the intention of being danceable but also suitable for mainstream contemporary radio. Some of these covers of popular songs made it onto Dance To Tipperary's first two studio albums leading to some of their biggest hits both in the UK and Ireland.
In March of 2020 Dance To Tipperary began celebrating the 20th anniversary since the release of their first album with the digital release of their ‘20 FOR 20’ album and a special 20th anniversary edition of their self-titled debut album. The albums were released as scheduled. Unfortunately special 20 year celebration concerts and live appearances being planned had to be postponed due to Covid-19. Despite these necessary changes to plans, Dance To Tipperary done their best to celebrate 20 years and helped and supported some in need along the way in these extraordinarily strange and difficult times. The single ‘What Kind Of World’, penned by legendary songwriter Diane Warren, was released on 17th July, 2020 and a further single Never Let It Go was released during October 2020. The full Dance To Tipperary catalogue was also made available on all streaming platforms in all countries around the world for the first time. Throughout the summer and into the autumn Dance To Tipperary had great support for the single releases and their 20 FOR 20 album and have decided to release a very special double vinyl edition of the 20 FOR 20 album in bright green vinyl in time for St. Patrick's Day 2021.
A very special 12" double vinyl album mastered at Abbey Road Studios presented in bright green vinyl featuring a selection of Dance To Tipperary's most significant tracks, hit and favourites over the past 20 years including Ride On, In The Ghetto The Fields Of Athenry (Celtic F.C.Mix), The Foxhunters, Olé, Olé, Olé 2002 (We're Up For The Cup), Great Moments With You, Tonight Is What It Means To Be Young, Return To Me and their ever growing in popularity remix of Fionnghuala by Anúna (the choir from Riverdance) featuring John McGlynn. This special vinyl edition of 20 FOR 20 album will also have three bonus tracks, What Kind Of World (Would This World Be), Never Let It Go and new latest single Always Remember The Good Times. The double LP set comes pressed on bright green heavy weight 12" vinyl discs and features a gatefold package with printed inner sleeves which will prominently feature Dance To Tipperary's eye-catching latest logo. A must for all collectors and fans of Dance To Tipperary, Celtic and Irish music alike.
