JFK aka 'Live in Leeds' Presents...
After 3 decades as a premier touring act, Limehouse Lizzy continue to dominate stages worldwide, keeping the legacy of Celtic rock icon Philip Lynott and his legendary band, Thin Lizzy, alive and still relevant. Known for their electrifying performances and unwavering attention to detail, Limehouse Lizzy has become an equally dominant force on the live Classic Rock circuit.
Recognised with an official PRS/Billboard award as Britain’s Hardest Working Act in their category, and featured in the BBC's critically acclaimed ‘Arena’ documentary series, Limehouse Lizzy’s influence extends beyond the stage. Lead singer and bassist Wayne Ellis has further left his mark as a former member of the recording and touring band The Clan, alongside none other than original Thin Lizzy and Motörhead member, Brian Robertson.
2024/25 has marked a period of unprecedented results for Limehouse Lizzy, with a record number of sold-out performances (41 in 2023 alone) on their highly celebrated Anniversary Tour. The band’s stellar production and accomplished lineup have garnered widespread acclaim, marking this period as the most successful in their history so far. This is in addition to international tours (USA, UAE, Caribbean, Scandinavia, NL), corporate client engagements (Virgin Atlantic, Mitsubishi, Silverstone) and features in renowned magazine (Guitarist, Bass Player, Loaded) and book publications (The Rocker, Send In The Clones).
As they march irrepressibly into 2026, Limehouse Lizzy continues to deliver their unique and irresistible tribute to Philip Lynott and Thin Lizzy, ensuring the band’s timeless hits remain a staple in rock music for years to come…

Limehouse LizzyLimehouse Lizzy are officially one of the hardest working bands in the UK. They were accredited for their live shows by the Performing Rights Society in December 2011 and received their certificate from PRS Chairman (and respected songwriter) Guy Fletcher OBE. Renowned for an action-packed pyrothechnic-fuelled explosion of a show, Limehouse Lizzy continue to keep the spirit of Celtic rock icon Philip Lynott and his band Thin Lizzy alive, well and dominating stages worldwide. The band have also added a tribute into their show to ex-Thin Lizzy guitarist (and world renowned solo artist) Gary Moore who sadly passed away last year. Attention to detail, playful audience interaction and that all important X-factor that leaves you with the feeling of witnessing the real thing have led to their performance being described as “beyond tribute”, by both audience and critics alike. Following the enormous success of their ˜Live & Dangerous” & ˜Dedication” tours, the band embarked upon their “Into the Limelight” 2008 tour to tie in with their appearance on an episode of BBC2’s ‘Arena’ documentary series of the same name. The tour travelled as far as a headline slot at a Rock festival in Greece, and the Virgin Atlantic Music festival in Barbados. The band appeared alongside diverse world music acts, and played a Thin Lizzy set representing the celtic rock genre. In 2012 the band's European tour continues to explore and celebrate the artistic and musical legacy of the hard-living, hard-rocking, yet at times surprisingly tender and romantic artist that was Philip Lynott. This year they will be appearing in the UK, Ireland, Germany, France, Holland and Belgium. Expect more of the Celtic influenced tracks like ”Whisky in the Jar” and “Black Rose”, amongst the usual razzamatazz and classic tracks “The Boys are Back in Town”, “Sarah” and many others we’ve come to expect from one of the most highly rated acts on the circuit.
