About the Album

Live From Rory Gallagher Place captures the energy and spirit of The Ciarán Hodgins Band performing live at the Rory Gallagher International Tribute Festival in Ballyshannon, Ireland.

Recorded in front of a festival audience, the album celebrates the band’s passion for blues rock through a mix of classic Rory Gallagher favourites and the original song “Long Time Ago”, showcasing both the band’s musical influences and its own songwriting.

Having performed at numerous blues festivals, including the Rory Gallagher International Tribute Festival alongside internationally acclaimed artists such as Walter Trout, Jimmie Vaughan, Eric Gales, and Billy F Gibbons of ZZ Top, the band continues to honour the tradition of live blues while forging its own path.
