Liberty Hall Theatre, Thursday 22nd September

PictureHouse play Dublin for the first time since their sold out show in Lost Lane @ Libery Hall Theatre on Thursday 22nd September 2022.

PictureHouse is the brainchild of Dave Browne. Originally signed to London Records in 1994, a rather tumultuous time resulted in the band returning to their native Dublin. They self-financed the release of their debut album “Shine Box”. The album produced a number of popular singles such as “Somebody Somewhere”, “The World and His Dog” and the smash hit “Heavenly Day”. With success in their native Ireland the band toured with fellow Irish band The Saw Doctors on their UK tour in 1996.

Their second album ‘Karmarama' was released in 1998 through the East-West label in Ireland. This release strengthened their presence in their native Ireland. “Sunburst” was the most played song on Irish radio in 1998, a multinational retail group put in the song in their TV campaign and the band played countless sold out shows including the legendary Olympia Theatre and the Point Depot. An award followed with Dave receiving “The Phil Lynott songwriting award” which was presented by Phil's mother in London.

In 2017, they celebrated the 21st anniversary of Shine Box with a compilation album entitled “How Can I Explain How This Came To Be?” and a show in Dublin's National Concert Hall. as part of the celebrations, the band received plaudits from all round Ireland including Bono, Michael D Higgins, Ian Dempsey, Dustin The Turkey, Ray d'Arcy, Dermot and Dave, Keith Barry, Ken Doherty, Pat Shortt and The Coronas
