Dolores O Riordan, front woman for the Irish band The Cranberries, died, tragically young and insanely talented.
Tony Kinsella, Salford poet and comedian, became belatedly aware of the depth of her magic beyond the hit singles and has chosen her as the final chapter in his Trilogy of Music Heroes, following tributes to The Undertones and Kirsty MacColl at The Playhouse Theatre in 2019 and (online) in 2020. This is Tony?s account of bingeing on Cranberries.
Jess Silk, awesome folk singer from the West Midlands, provides original songs and covers of Cranberries classics, woven into the narrative.
17 years of Musical Genius and the best Guinness in town.

Katie Fitzgeralds has built a reputation for live music and parties but it's about more than that its also about history and tradition.
Originally a private house the building is over 200 years old and has been a pub since the 1830 Beer Act.
In the 19th century it would have been home to foundry workers and boatmen and would have looked out across to the Stourbridge canal arm where Foster and Rastrick built the Stourbridge Lion the first steam locomotive to run on rails in the USA.
Originally known as the Golden Lion it later became known as the Stourbridge Lion and then in 2000 it
became our home and was renamed in honour of Trina's grandmother Katie Fitzgerald who was born in Cloyne County Cork.
Trina is related to Irelands most famous hurling player Christy Ring, a son of Cloyne and is also cousin of Donal ag Cusack , Irelands first openly gay sportsman.
