Win tickets to see Jack L at the NCH with dinner and a signed poster
I met Jack L and Sharon Shannon recently to talk about their upcoming collaboration in the National Concert Hall. Now you can win tickets to the show and dinner beforehand.
I am really looking forward to this concert – the interview we did was fun and both Jack and Sharon sounded really enthusiastic about their collaboration on Chez Jack L. Details from the National Concert Hall website:
Chez Jack L – The Songs of Jacques Brel
Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 November, 8pmRoom: Main Auditorium
Prices: €35, €30, €20Jack Lukeman
With Special Guest Sharon ShannonOne of Ireland’s most unique singer-songwriters Jack L – will host this exciting Parisian-style show “Chez Jack L”, a celebration of the late Jacques Brel.
Jack L aka Jack Lukeman is one of our most unique and best loved performers. Described as ‘a mixture of all the great voices of the 20th century ’, few can match Jack’s award winning powerhouse vocals.
His renditions of the songs of Jacques Brel are renowned. In 2004, spurred on by participation in an unreleased documentary on the Belgian crooner, Jack L created a show around the singer, and called it “Chez Jack L — Love, Sex, Death & Brel.” The show was a huge hit during its run, justifying a DVD release in 2004.
This live DVD marked the beginning of a Jacques Brel tour around Ireland that would see Jack selling out venues for weeks on end. We are delighted to welcome Jack L to reprise Chez Jack L on The National Concert Hall stage.
Adding to the Gallic flavour of the legendary Chez Jack L show and following in the footsteps of Brel’s famous lifelong accordion player Jean Conti will be our own superstar accordion virtuoso Sharon Shannon who will be making a very special guest appearance in the show and adding the quintessential accordion sound to classics such Jacky & Port of Amsterdam
“Jack Lukeman – a.k.a. – JACK L – is without doubt the most exciting performer to have emerged in this country over the past ten years…” (Sarah McQuaid, Evening Herald)
Presented by The National Concert Hall
I have two tickets to see the concert on SUNDAY evening at 8pm to give away.
In addition, you’ll win a meal before the concert (6.15pm sitting) from the NCH’s Dinner and Concert Menu which includes the 2 course Table D’ hote menu plus tea/coffee – that night it’s Soulful Soulfood with Salmon Croquettes and Pinto beans with Corn bread and Peach Cobbler. The National Concert Hall have also offered a signed poster as well!
So, what do you have to do to be in with a chance of winning? Just leave a comment below!
The winner will be picked at random and emailed on SATURDAY AFTERNOON and must be available to take the tickets for Sunday evening.
Thanks a million to Joanne at the National Concert Hall. They’re on twitter @nch_music and on Facebook here. And they’re great. My favourite music venue in Dublin.
