A Bob Dylan Brunch with Tony Villiers (Out to Lunch).

about

Bob Dylan was born in Duluth, Minnesota 83 years ago and is widely regarded as the world’s greatest living songwriter. Tony Villiers was born in Co. Armagh several decades later and Dylan has always been a touchstone and towering presence in his life.

Today’s performance will feature many of those great Dylan songs that have inspired Tony, the stories behind the songs and what they meant to a young man growing up in Armagh in the 80’s and 90’s and right up to the present day.
