Foster and Allen Concert Tour of Scotland and Northern Englandby Christine Johnstone |
Video: Foster & Allen featuring Shayne Ward - Galway Girl Foster & Allen will tour Scotland and Northern England from March 13th to 30th, 2019. The Irish folk music duo are stars across the globe, having 30 new-release charting albums over a 40-year career, the only act in the world to do so. The story of Foster & Allen began back in the seventies when they were playing in country music bands around Ireland. In 1975 they got together a small group and went over to the UK to work the Irish music venues on a short tour. At the end of 1978 they released the single “A Bunch of Thyme” in Ireland, which entered the Irish charts and became their first top-selling No. 1 single. It stayed in the Irish Charts for 40 consecutive weeks, re-entering for a further 13 weeks. To date Foster & Allen have achieved album and video sales in excess of 20 million worldwide. Foster & Allen’s style and easy listening sound remains ever popular, especially the live concerts.
