Don’t miss this incredible reunion, and dance again to ‘The Band with the Magic Beat!’ when they play The Abbey Hotel on Saturday, December 29.

Following the passing of their dear friend and colleague Big Tom McBride, their vast following of loyal fans were hoping to get an opportunity to dance to The Mainliners once more.

Now ‘The band with the Magic Beat!’ have got back together with John Glenn, who first joined The Mainliners over forty years ago.

John fronted the band from ’75 to ’78 and they had immediate success with hits such as “Sunny Side Of The Mountain” “Turn Back The Years” and “Keep On The Sunnyside”.

The Abbey Hotel Christmas Country Line Up Kicks off on Friday, December 28 with Jimmy Buckley, followed on Saturday Night with John Glenn & The Mainliners and finally on Sunday, December 30, Michael English takes to the stage.

Elaine McInaw, Sales & Marketing Manager, expressed the great excitement in the Abbey Hotel to be welcoming John Glenn & The Mainliners to perform in the Abbey Ballroom which is renowned for having the best dance floor in the North West and possibly all of Ireland.

“It is a wonderful opportunity to once again dance to the band with the magic beat and recall those nostalgic memories we all have about Big Tom and what his music meant to us all.

“We are delighted to have such a fantastic Christmas Country Line Up this year with Jimmy Buckley on Friday Night, John Glenn & The Mainliners on Saturday Night and Michael English on Sunday, December 30.”

“The Band with the Magic Beat!’ takes to the stage at The Abbey Hotel this Christmas on Saturday, December 29,” McInaw concluded.
