TourManager/Booking Agent Required
Celtic Legacy is is looking for a reputable and experienced business savvy person to take charge of band affairs for 2010. We are already planning our strategy for next year and would like to have someone on board to handle all the dirty work while we get on with the music end of things. We will no longer be doing gigs on a goodwill or 'take the door' basis so we need someone to handle the tricky negotiations on our behalf. This includes booking and organising gigs, travel and general management. NOTE: We will not be playing Irish gigs in 2010, so the position is needed to enhance our standing for international tours and festivals and have a gig schedule in place for next year as early as possible. If you know someone capable or want to get in touch with us then email the band at davem_AT_celtic-legacy.com

New Material Begins - April 2009
Celtic Legacy will begin the task of following up Guardian Of Eternity over the next few months. Due to the relative stability in the band at this point, all five members of the band will be contributing to the material and will have an equal shout in the creative process. From this point onward, the tracks the band come up wth will be credited to the entire band. We're hoping this will broaden the music somewhat and lead to a much more collaborative creative process.
Line Up Change - February 2009
Celtic Legacy has parted company with Conor Gillen. Although it's an over-used cliché, in this case it was definitely down to musical differences. Conor leaves with our best wishes and sincere thanks to his contributions to the band and his excellent playing on the Guardian Of Eternity album.
In his place the band is pleased to welcome Joe Farrell in on drums. Joe distinguished himself as drummer with Cruachan for 5 years, playing on 3 of their albums before leaving in 2007. Joe's first show with Legacy will be at the forthcoming British Steel IV festival in April.
Heavy Metal Killers Compilation Released - February 16 2009
The NWOBHM-styled Earache compilation "Heavy Metal KIllers" has been released as of Feb 16 to very good reviews. Legacy's appearance on this compilation is as a result of our apearance at last year's Bloodstock Festival.
You can order a copy of the album on either CD or limited edition vinyl at the Earache Webstore. This album should increase the band's international profile.
