The Boomtown Rats are a trailblazing rock / new wave band that emerged in the late 1970s, renowned for their raw energy, thought-provoking lyrics, and ability to reinvent themselves across decades. Formed in 1975 in Dún Laoghaire, Ireland, the band was founded by Bob Geldof, Garry Roberts, Johnnie Fingers, Pete Briquette, Gerry Cott, and Simon Crowe.
From his band The Bible in the 80s, countless projects (including his work with Fairground Attraction's Eddi Reader), and, of course, his solo work, Boo Hewerdine is well known and celebrated for his songs and performances across the UK and further.
