SHE’S a star in the home of country Nashville – now Colleen Lloy is coming to County Donegal.
She’s coming back to the Emerald Isle as part of a European tour – and will be on stage at the Mount Errigal Hotel on August 20.
Lloy was in Ireland in June and has booked a show at the Mount Errigal Hotel as part of The Gathering Celebration and to trace her family roots.
Colleen’s recent tour included stops in Italy, Austria, Ireland, and England but she was so fond of Ireland that she booked a show for August 20th at the Mount Errigal Hotel.
Colleen Lloy has shared the stage with music greats like George Jones, BB King, Tanya Tucker, Billy Ray Cyrus, John Anderson, Paul Overstreet, John Berry, Lee Greenwood and most recently Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac.
Said Lloy: “I am so excited to be playing the Mount Errigal Hotel Ballroom and to be coming back to Ireland again!
“I love the people of Ireland and the scenery in Donegal is just incredible.”
She has local recording artist, Paul Tully opening the show for her.
Paul is a local from Strabane who returned after briefly living in Australia while pursuing his music. Paul fronts the successful rock band Pontius Pilots and has an EP coming out in September. When Lloy heard his voice she had to have him open the show. “He has a golden voice and is definitely a star on the rise.”
