Simply Pop! is the latest in a series of sell-out Candlelight Concerts at the Belfry, Ballyseede Castle, which have become popular with audiences looking for a memorable night of live music in an intimate and atmospheric setting.

They will be on tour again in October with their Showstoppers concert in the UK.
From the big anthems and power ballads of the 80s, through the chart-topping sounds of the 90s and noughties, to more recent pop favourites, Simply Pop! promises something for everyone.
