The Stephen Smyth Band

New country music solo artist, Stephen Smyth, is one of the most talented musicians and vocalist in the Irish Country music scene, having spent the whole of his career playing with some of Ireland’s best-loved singers, from Philomena Begley to The Indians to Dominic Kirwan and most recently Declan Nerney.

Such are Stephen’s talents that he has become one of the most sought after band men on the entertainment circuit. Self –taught, Stephen is recognised in the industry as a highly gifted and versatile musician who plays a vast array of instruments and who has backed innumerable artists over the years on stage and in recordings.

See The Stephen Smith Band live as they continue to build on their ever growing reputation.

The Empire Theatre Halstead was revived as a place of entertainment in 1978 after a period of inactivity that stretched back to 1971 when the Foulconbridge brother's tenure came to an end. Halstead Town Council bought the building and then leased it to the Empire Theatre Trust with the intention of restoring the Empire Theatre as a place for local entertainment that had been the envy of many similar sized towns during earlier decades of the 20th century.

Today the Empire Theatre is fully independently run by the Empire Theatre Trust which is made up of a collection of enthusiastic local residents giving their time on a voluntary basis. Many forms of entertainment are put on at the theatre including tribute acts, 60s concerts, country music, comedy, drama productions and pantomime - all making great use of a state of the art lighting desk and new sound equipment provided by trustees.
