The lineup for '20th Century Paddy - The Songs of Shane MacGowan' reflects the brilliant world that Shane MacGowan inhabited. This isn't a standard tribute, it's a gathering of artists who share his musical DNA. From U2, Tom Waits, The Pogues and The Libertines to the wall of sound energy of The Jesus and Mary Chain and Primal Scream, the project finds a common thread between global icons and Ireland's modern trailblazers including Hozier, Glen Hansard, Lisa O'Neill, Amble, and Kingfishr.

In the spirit of Shane's lifelong advocacy for those most in need, at least 50% of artist royalties from the album will be donated to the Dublin Simon Community. This partnership honors Shane's long standing connection to the organisation and his commitment to supporting people experiencing homelessness.
