Alex Black - 60 Years in Music

Join legendary country and Irish performer Alex Black for a very special night as he celebrates 60 remarkable years in music.
Over six decades, Alex has become a familiar and much-loved voice on the Irish country music scene. With his rich, low baritone and unmistakable style reminiscent of greats such as Jim Reeves, Big Tom and Don Williams, he has entertained audiences across Ireland and beyond.
Beginning his career in the golden era of the Irish showband scene, Alex built a reputation not only as a gifted performer but also as a talented songwriter, penning songs recorded by a number of well-known country music artists.
This special anniversary concert will take audiences on a journey through Alex’s incredible career — from the early showband days to the many stages and stories that followed. Expect an evening filled with classic country songs, heartfelt originals, memories from the road, and plenty of musical surprises.

Alex will be joined on stage by the fantastic Ryan Turner Band, along with friends and fellow performers from the music industry who have shared the journey over the years. Special guest performers will be announced closer to the event.
Hosting the evening will be Alex’s daughter, singer and performer Sinead Black, who will guide the audience through the highlights of her father’s life in music, sharing stories, memories and milestones from a career that has spanned generations of fans.
Music truly runs in the Black family, and this celebration promises to be a warm, uplifting and unforgettable night of entertainment, packed with songs, stories and special moments.
Whether you are a long-time follower of Alex’s music or simply a lover of classic country and Irish song, this promises to be a night not to be missed.
