Last year Australia welcomed ecstatic news that Irish singer Andrew Strong would be touring The Commitments and would be hitting our shores in August through till September. Due to popular demand and a handful of sold out performances, Andrew Strong is bringing the show back in 2014 for a string of dates through July and October.

Based on the 1992 Alan Parker cult classic film that was released, The Commitments is something of a rags-to-riches story that sees the group fall just short of stardom. The movie received massive international recognition, nominated for Grammy’s and Academy Awards, and won several BAFTA’s and Brit Awards

After recent six sold out Arena shows in the UK and Ireland Andrew Strong: The Commitments Tour have recaptured the same success for their down under run and the 8-piece band will be performing all the hits that were not only made famous from the film but received incredible chart success in Australia.
