Brian Downey is the drummer and founding member of the legendary Dublin Rock band Thin Lizzy. Together with old and new companions from the Irish Rock scene, he formed Brian Downey’s Alive And Dangerous in 2016 to pay homage to the Rock sound of the seventies.
Together with singer and bass player Phil Lynott, Brian Downey was the only constant member of Thin Lizzy until their break-up in 1983, after which Downey continued to play in Lynott‘s solo projects and with Gary Moore, live and also on Moore‘s world-famous “Still Got The Blues” album, among others.
Together with guitar virtuosos Brian Grace and Phil Edgar as well as bassist and singer Matt Wilson from Belfast, who is a worthy substitute for Phil Lynott, Brian Downey performs Thin Lizzy‘s hits for Rock fans all over Europe.
