Mundy announces 'Jelly Legs 21' tour this October
The Irish tour will coincide with the re-issuing of his debut album.
On the 14th of October 1996, at the humble age of 21, Mundy released his debut album Jelly Legs on Epic Records. The critically acclaimed LP launched the career of one of Ireland’s most beloved singer-songwriters. Jelly Legs also included the song ‘To You I Bestow’ which appeared on the soundtrack to ‘Romeo and Juliet’ by Baz Luhrmann and sold over 11 million copies worldwide, introducing Mundy to an international audience.
October 2017 is the 21st anniversary of Legs, which has gone on to become a much-loved classic, achieving platinum status in Ireland. Sony Music Ireland will re-issue Jelly Legs on both CD & Vinyl on September 29 and Mundy has decided to mark the occasion by reforming his old band with Steo Farrell (guitars), Cion O’Callaghan (drums) and Shane Fitzsimons (bass). Back in the '90s the band toured France, the UK and the States extensively, sharing bills with Van Morrison, Manic Street Preachers, Cast and Stereophonics. Now the guys are looking forward to playing together again, revisiting old hits like ‘Pardon Me’, ‘Life’s a Cinch’ and ‘Gin and Tonic Sky’.
Having released five studio albums since 1996 and having toured extensively and played for the likes of Barack Obama - both on Irish soil and at The White House - this tour will see Mundy returning to his roots and celebrating an album which kick-started his career. Tickets are on sale now.
