Cavan singer joins Oscar winner's garden party tour

Lorraine O'Reilly from Ballyconnell has toured with Gladiator star previously.

Cavan singer-songwriter Lorraine O'Reilly will once again join Oscar winner Russell Crowe when his Indoor Garden Party tour returns to Ireland later this year..

The Garden Party tour of Ireland the UK will kick off with a show at Dublin's Gaiety Theatre on July 1.

It will be the first time the Garden Party has played Ireland since 2017.

Crowe is set to appear on tour alongside The Gentlemen Barbers and Ballyconnell native Lorraine.

Lorraine has had a long term working relationship with Crowe, having first shared the stage with the star of Gladiator and LA Confidential during a UK and Ireland tour in 2016.

After playing Ireland the Russell Crowe Indoor Garden Party will play four shows across the UK throughout July. He'll also perform at Paris La Cigale on July 6.

Last year Lorraine flew out to take part in a whistle-stop tour of five Australian states over five weeks with Crowe and his musical entourage.

The Australian series came to a memorable climax with two sold-out shows in Sydney Opera House and Manning Bar.

On that tour Lorraine also sang alongside Crowe's stellar guests Michael Bublé, Marcia Hines a household name Down Under as a judge in Australian Idol, and singer Rita Ora, fresh from stealing the show at Eurovision.

Meanwhile RZA from the Wu Tang Clan joined them on stage for Crowe's new single 'Let Your Light Shine'.
