While he spends a lot of time in Ireland, Canadian producer and musician Daniel Lanois seldom plays here.

This will be redressed next month when Lanois, currently working with U2 on their forthcoming album, plays two shows to tie in with screenings of Here Is What Is, the documentary on his work as a musician and producer.

Lanois, along with drummer Brian Blade, plays Dublin’s IFI on May 31 and Galway’s Town Hall Theatre on June 1. Both shows will be followed by a screening of the documentary (trailer below)
