Lark in the Park returns

The Saw Doctors will be the headliners on Friday, April 30, while General Fiasco take to the stage on Saturday, May 1.

Lark in the Park promises two spectacular days of live music, entertainment and a fun day out for all the family.

A funny thing happened to The Saw Doctors in October 2008.

After a gap of 17 years, the west of Ireland rockers topped the Irish Music Singles Chart with their punked up version of the Sugababes song ‘About You Now’, beating off international artists such as Pink and Kings of Leon.

Back in the early 90s, The Saw Doctors were Number One in Ireland with ‘Hay Wrap’, ‘N17’ and ‘I Useta Lover’ which still holds the record for the biggest selling Irish single.

Northern Irish trio General Fiasco spent 2009 on the road playing both headline shows, support tours with the likes of The Enemy and The Answer, performing at the CMJ in New York, festivals such as Download and Glastonbury and generally anywhere with a stage they could plug into.

They also signed to Infectious Music and released their debut album 'Buildings' in March.

The Saw Doctors will be supported on Friday, April 30 by Fiddler Adam and Black Thorn, with the event running from 5pm to 10.30pm.

On Saturday, May 1 from 12noon to 10.30pm fans will be entertained by General Fiasco, Rattle and Hum, The Beat Poets, The Varonis, The Dead Presidents, Doghouse, Microlip, Raised on Rock.

Tickets are priced at 20 for each night and are available now at Ticketmaster.

Under 12s get free entry when accompanied by an adult with a full price ticket.
