Dubbed Ireland’s hardest-working band, The Coronas have never rested on past achievements since the band ormed back in school some 20 years ago. And that’s a lot to say considering three consecutive albums that debuted at #1 on the Irish charts, performances for two U.S. Presidents, 15 years of legendary sold-out Christmas holiday shows that have become an annual Dublin tradition and a worldwide fan base that stretches from their native Ireland across Europe to North America, Australia and beyond.
The Coronas have previously released seven studio albums: Heroes Or Ghosts (2007), Tony Was An Ex-Con (2009), Closer To You (2011), The Long Way (2014), Trust The Wire (2017), True Love Waits (2020) and Time Stopped (2022). Their first three albums were released via the independent Irish label 3ú Records and the fourth one on Island Records, while the fifth marked their return to the independent route with the launch of their own imprint, SoFarSoGood Records, distributed by Blix Street Records. Those last three albums each debuted at #1 on the Irish charts.
“The longer we do this the prouder we are of our longevity”, says O’Reilly, “and we still feel like we’ve got something
to say”.
Emerging ever stronger from the global pandemic that not only sidelined their live concerts, but made them the subject of discussion around their name, The Coronas took the setbacks in their stride and now relish their return to massive outdoor shows. Those include supporting Bruce Springsteen in front of more than 65,000 people in London’s Hyde Park last summer and the recent Live at the Marquee in Cork and Fairview Park in Dublin shows.
Following the release of the album, they will return to North America in November to play New York City’s Gramercy Theatre and the Brighton Music Hall in Boston before heading back to Australia and ending the year with their traditional holiday shows at the venerable Olympia Theatre in Dublin on December 12, 13 and 14 and the INEC in Killarney, Kerry, Ireland.
“We’ve always ignored a lot of the trendy stuff and consider ourselves a live band first and foremost”, explains
O’Reilly. “For us, it’s always been simple: we pride ourselves on creating good songs and improving our live set with every single show we do and album we release.”
