It's been twenty one years since The Stunning initially formed, and fourteen since they were permanent band unit - but that hasn't damaged their legacy as one of the most well-known Irish bands of the '90s. Thanks mainly to songs like 'Brewing Up A Storm', from their hugely successful 1990 debut 'Paradise In the Picturehouse', the quintet (based around brothers Steve and Joe Wall) also cultivated a reputation for being a hit in the live forum - which explains why they were enticed back into the arena in 2003, after 'Paradise...'s re-release brought further success and demands for a tour.
Each year since then, The Stunning have briefly reformed for short tours around the festive season, and this year is no different (well, it's slightly special because of their 21st anniversary.) See below for tour dates, as well as video clips old and new:
