Darren has a heartfelt message for the people of his home village of Mooncoin, following the High Kings show at Mooncoin GAA 8th December 2017. The perfect way to open the 10th Anniversary tour, Darren's first time performing in his home village in over 20 years. What a night it was!

Vicar Street - Dublin

"Vicar St. One of the great nights in the High Kings history. Literally thought the place would explode with the volume from you guys. Absolutely incredible crowd. Another unforgettable show from the opening weekend of the "Decade" tour. Very humbled by the standing ovation for "Town". Always great to have family and friends in."


The High Kings: “Just one of the many highlights from our Vicar Street show last weekend. Great start to our #decadetour.”
