Fourth Levon Helm Tribute For The Sugar Club

Saturday April 16 will see The Sugar Club host the fourth annual show in remembrance of legendary musician Levon Helm.
The drummer and singer with seminal Americana outfit The Band who passed away in 2012 will be celebrated by a stellar cast including Gavin Glass, Square Pegs - featuring Graham Hopkins (The Frames) and Colm Quearney (ex-Lir), The Group (Last Waltz Tribute Act), The Drays, Carol Keogh, Rag Mama Rag and some very special guests to be announced.
