Jack L

Tramway Theatre is delighted to welcome Jack L, the critically respected and well-known singer with a penchant for conjuring up the smoky pop of icons such as Jaques Brel, Tom Waits, and Scott Walker, as well as selling a lot of Albums and concert tickets throughout Ireland.

Jack L, Ireland's favourite deep-voiced melodramatic rock singer songwriter plays at Tramway Theatre on Sun 6th May.
