Johnny Logan, Friends

Johnny Logan & Friends lands at Portalen in Greve, Denmark on April 24, 2027, for a night centered on melodic pop and intimate ballads. Born in Australia and raised in Ireland, Johnny Logan came up in a family of musicians before turning to songwriting in the mid-70s. His voice-led approach and orchestral-leaning arrangements have shaped a catalogue that moves between soft rock shades and adult contemporary pop, always anchored by clear, singable melodies.

His name is tied to the Eurovision Song Contest, which he won for Ireland in 1980 with What’s Another Year and again in 1987 with Hold Me Now, and he later penned Why Me?, which brought another Irish victory in 1992. Decades of touring and recording followed, especially across Ireland and Northern Europe, where he regularly reconnects with this repertoire on stage.

With Friends signals a collaborative format: musicians and guests joining him to broaden the palette with harmonies and instrumental colors. Expect a set that revisits his Eurovision titles alongside cuts from his albums, reworked with space for storytelling and the warmth of a band playing close to the songs.
