The Chapters to support Chuck Berry

Berry, who turned 81 last October, will play The Grill in Letterkenny on March 24 and the Chapters will be warming up the crowd on the night.

Although he hasn't released a studio album since 1979's Rockit, Berry continues to tour his extensive back catalogue and his huge influence over rock'n'roll songwriting, sound and performance ensures he always has a receptive audience.

Elsewhere, The Chapters have also secured support slots with Cathy Davey (February 18, 19 & 20 in Cork, Galway and Waterford), Gavin Glass & The Holy Shakers (February 24 and 25 in Cork) and fellow Dubliners the Coronas (March 8 in the Ambassador, Dublin). Phew!
