TOWNHALL THEATRE CAVAN, SATURDAY 23rd SEPTEMBER 2023 8PM
Gina, Dale Haze and The Champions established themselves as Ireland’s top attraction in the late seventies and maintained that coveted position right through the eighties with record breaking attendances at dances and concerts, wherever they performed. Matching their live success with industry recognition, the band received countless awards and accolades offered up by the Irish music industry.
2023 sees the band celebrate fifty years on the road; bringing joy through music and dance to the hearts of many. To mark this monumental milestone, Gina and The Champions are announcing a special anniversary tour, playing a host of shows at venues across Ireland.
1979 proved to be a monumental year for Gina, firstly with the release of one of her biggest hits ‘The Greatest Lover’ and then to be decorated with two major awards; Gina being voted ‘Irelands Number 1 Pop Singer’ and the band being voted ‘Irelands Top band’.Amazingly this feat was to be repeated a number of times over the following years.
Along with a consistently active touring schedule, ‘Gina, Dale Haze and the Champions’ made innumerable television appearances both in Ireland and Britain over the course of their lengthy career. Appearances on Gay Byrne’s famed ‘Late Late Show’ were a regular occurrence, performing many of their hits, such as, The Greatest Lover, Give me back my Love, Dreams are Good Friends, Drunken Sailor, A Real Good Feeling and many more.
