Dave Finnegan’s The Commitments

A soul-stirring concert experience paying tribute to a hit movie of the early 90s is coming to Parr Hall later this November.

Dave Finnegan, from The Commitments, is inviting Warrington audiences on a journey into sweet soul music on Sunday, 17 November.

The musician and actor played bouncer and drummer Mickah Wallace in Alan Parker’s film about a working class band who aimed to fill the musical void in their hometown of Dublin.

Since then, Dave has performed alongside legendary artists as James Brown, Edwin Starr, BB King, Dan Ackroyd and Alexander O’Neal.

And for the past decade, Dave has been the charismatic frontman of The Commitments touring band – an eight-piece ensemble who continue to take inspiration from the blockbuster’s soundtrack.
