Rod Stewart Announces Concerts In Dublin And Belfast This November
Rod Stewart has announced Irish dates as part of his ‘From Gasoline Alley to Another Country Hits 2016 Tour’.
Rod Stewart AKA ‘Rod The Mod’ has had a phenomenally successful career, both as a solo artist and as a member of group, Faces.
Stewart has had a total of 62 UK hit singles, six of which reached number one in the charts. He received a Brit Award for ‘Outstanding Contribution to Music’ in 1993 and a Grammy Award for ‘Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album’ in 2005. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994, acknowledged as a solo artist.
“Rarely has a singer had as full and unique a talent as Rod Stewart — a writer who offered profound lyricism and fabulous self-deprecating humor, teller of tall tales and honest heartbreaker, he had an unmatched eye for the tiny details around which lives turn, shatter, and reform — and a voice to make those details indelible. His solo albums were defined by two special qualities: warmth, which was redemptive, and modesty, which was liberating. If ever any rocker chose the role of every man and lived up to it, it was Rod Stewart.” –The Rolling Stone Illustrated History of Rock & Roll (1980)
