Long time, no updates

Folks! Thanks for visiting – if you’re perusing the site and find broken links, disappeared videos and the like that’s because the site is now over 12 years old! We’ve been short on time & energy in regard to cleaning the place up so watch your step. We’ll get to it when we get to it. Otherwise, enjoy.

Oh and as you probably know, The Frames have 3 gigs in June in Cork & Belfast. There are still tickets available and you can get them here!

The Frames 32 is happening

Indeed the 30th anniversary celebration is finally happening 28 May in Dublin at Royal Kilmainham Hospital. Here’s to 32 years as a band! Unfortunately the US Gigs from last Fall have been cancelled so at this time the Dublin party is the only one. Lucky you to everyone who is attending!

Frames 30 Dublin postponed

Sadly The Frames gig for June has been moved a full year to 19 June, 2021. You can see the Facebook post here and read Claire’s note below.

Thanks for bearing with us on this one, but unfortunately as I’m sure we could all foresee, we’ve no choice but to postpone the frames 30th and make it the frames 31st instead!! (hopefully!!!)

Oh my, I’m sure you’re all with me when I say that we all sincerely look very much forward to the time when we can gather and sing and dance and play music and generally enjoy each others company – you really don’t know what you got til its gone..

Be good and stay well…big virtual love from all of us cx

The Frames 30

While GH gig pages have been going strong, we haven’t posted a news bit in almost exactly 2 years! As you probably already know, The Frames will be celebrating their big 30 this summer with a gig in Dublin on June 20th. The gig is sold out! Here’s the details that came out with the announcement:

The Frames : 30
Royal Hospital Kilmainham, Dublin
Saturday June 20th 2020
Special guests to be announced

“There’s something about stepping back into the furious belly of this beast where the low bells chime around the parish, where time is swallowed and years slip by, this place where most of my hearing went in the sound of working it out from soaring angst to occasional pride into unmoored middle age. The songs grow too and change their meaning, till it all collapses together into the glorious bonfire that is The Frames…” – Glen Hansard

“A significant birthday should be celebrated. 2020 will mark The Frames’ 30th journey around the Sun. Most of that time has been spent travelling around the World, in and in celebration of, music. Where better to celebrate? One night in Dublin! Come join us!” – Colm Mac Con Iomaire

Spring Cleaning
