| Mic Christopher - Troubadour (Leargas Tribute) Part 1 |
 |
'Troubadour' the Leargas tribute to Mic
Christopher broadcast by RTE, Ireland in
January 2003. One of the most moving
programmes you will ever see on TV.
"Mic Christopher (21 Sep 1969 - 29 Nov 2001)
was an Irish singer-songwriter, best known
for his posthumously-released debut album
Skylarkin'.
In 1990 Christopher formed the band, the Mary
Janes with former Kila bass player and fellow
busker, Karl Odlum, with Simon Goode on
guitar and Steven Hogan on drums.
In November 2001 after playing a gig in
Groningen, Holland he apparently struck his
head on some steps following a fall. He
lapsed into a coma as a result of severe
swelling to the brain. He never regained
consciousness and died on 29 November 2001,
aged 32.
Since Mic Christopher's death, The Frames'
frontman Glen Hansard has dedicated every one
of their albums to him. They also dedicate
their cover version of his hit Heyday to him
when played live. The Damien Rice album, O,
is also dedicated to Mic Christopher."
