The Prelude

When 6 best friends move from Derry to Liverpool, here's The Prelude. Singing slur-along classics for boozers, football terraces and radio, tales of joy, despair, confusion, contagious melodies and bellowed choruses. Influenced by Neil Young, The Band and The Pogues. Good time rock and roll. Marrying the pathos of Dylan, the melodies of The Band and the drunken celebration of The Pogues, The Prelude have shaken audiences up and down the country with their unique brew of classical song-writing and good time rock and roll.
