ARTS: Free Mark Ronson gig and chance to hear Tim Robbins in Belfast

Mark Ronson and The Business Intl. are to play a free gig in the Waterfront Hall on Thursday 19th September as part of the MTV Presents… series of concerts. Having produced Amy Winehouse’s fantastic ‘Back To Black’, and his own cover album ‘Versions’, Ronson is one of the industry’s most in demand producers. Catchy single, ‘Bang Bang Bang’ went to number one in the UK chart this year. The Waterfront Hall will be the first date in his UK tour with The Business Intl.

In other news, Tim Robbins, star of The Shawshank Redemption, will be performing in the Limelight with his Rogues Gallery Band on the 27th September, the date his debut album is released. Described as “raggle taggle and rousing gypsy Americana”, it’ll be interesting to see what they sound like, as many actor’s musical side projects tend to fall awry.
