Life & Songs of The Eagles, August 8, Coastguard Cultural Centre, Tramore

Derek Flynn and Lauren Cardiff will celebrate one of the most iconic bands in rock history this August, The Eagles, bringing the timeless music and fascinating story of the legendary American group to life on stage.

From their early days in the Southern California music scene to their rise as global superstars, The Eagles shaped the sound of an era with their unique blend of rock, country, and flawless harmonies. 

The upcoming latest addition to the 'Life and Songs' series pays tribute to their extraordinary legacy through powerful live renditions of their biggest hits and the remarkable stories behind them. 

Between songs, you'll hear engaging stories about how the band was formed, their internal struggles, the writing of their most iconic tracks, and the individual members whose talent, personalities, and sometimes rivalries helped shape their sound. 

Learn how Don Henley and Glenn Frey forged a creative partnership that led to some of rock’s most enduring music, how Joe Walsh’s wild energy electrified the group in the mid-70s, and how the band weathered fame, conflict, and a 14-year hiatus before their triumphant reunion.

Sit back, relax, and take it easy as Derek and Lauren honour one of the most successful and influential bands in rock and roll history.
