Now they are returning to Drogheda for all their loyal fans in the north east! “After playing in the amazing TLT Drogheda twice already we couldn't wait to come back to perform for all our fans again,†they said. “We toured the UK and Ireland last year and we were in South Africa filming a TV advert.
