Damien Dempsey's 20th anniversary vinyl release of Shots out this Friday
All vinyl pre-orders will include a lyric card signed by Damien.
Damien Dempsey is set to mark the 20th anniversary of his acclaimed album Shots with a special vinyl edition, available this Friday, April 11.
Originally released on March 11, 2005, Shots debuted at No. 1 on the IRMA Irish Album Chart and featured standout singles including 'Hold Me', 'Sing All Our Cares Away', 'Patience', and 'St Patrick’s Day'.
The album received a 9/10 review from Hot Press at the time, with Kim Porcelli describing it as “full of the kinds of truths most of the media stopped bothering to highlight long ago, all delivered with a warrior’s fierceness and a good son’s humility". The review was revisited for the anniversary last month.
This marks the first time the LP will be available on vinyl. The 20th anniversary edition is pressed on limited opaque silver vinyl, and all pre-orders will include a lyric card signed by Damien.
Over a career spanning more than 25 years, Dempsey has performed alongside artists such as Sinéad O’Connor, John Grant, Imelda May, The Dubliners, Lisa O’Neill, and Maverick Sabre, and has supported legends including Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, and Willie Nelson.
