Christy Moore returns to the Gleneagle Arena on April 11th 2026. An Expanded Edition of his Number 1 album 'A Terrible Beauty’ with five new tracks is expected November 14th from Claddagh Records. The original 13-track album includes the single 'Boy in the Wild’ written by Christy and the late Wally Page. The video for ‘Boy in the Wild’ recently won the top prize for Best Music Video, as well as Best Direction at the 2025 Shark Music Video awards in London. The album also includes ‘Black & Amber’, written by Brian Brannigan of A Lazarus Soul, who also wrote the album track ‘Lemon Sevens’. Elsewhere on A Terrible Beauty, stories of resilience, memory, and social struggle weave together across its tracks, blending personal reflections with broader societal critiques. From the powerful meditation on conflict and defiance in ‘Sunflowers’, an ode to Ukraine, it moves through tributes to historic figures and tragic events, such as Ann Lovett and Lyra McKee. Songs like ‘The Big Marquee’ and ‘Cumann na Mná’ celebrate The Rebel County and the Irish Women’s Football Team respectively in Christy’s signature tongue-in-cheek style, while tracks like ‘Palestine’ and ‘Snowflakes’ call out injustice and hate. Christy Moore’s music resonates powerfully with audiences worldwide, capturing universal experiences with a rare, evocative touch. A Terrible Beauty is a striking showcase of his unique ability to bring shared stories to life.
