About the show
With 13 albums, and songs including ‘Our Mutual Friend’, ‘A Lady of a Certain Age’ and ‘To the Rescue’, under his belt, Hannon’s trademark orchestral pop, intelligent lyrics and legendary live shows have turned him into something of a national treasure.
2025 saw the release of the 13th Divine Comedy album, Rainy Sunday Afternoon. Recorded at Abbey Road, it exquisitely covers Hannon’s usual range of emotions: sad, funny, angry and everything in between.
Featuring
The Divine Comedy
Neil Hannon's band has been through several changes of style and line-up since their 1990 debut EP. Although the original band split up shortly after their second release, Neil continued as a singer/songwriter and released two more low-key albums in 1994, still under the name The Divine Comedy. The band's breakthrough came in 1995 when Neil wrote the theme tune to the hit TV comedy Father Ted and Chris Evans played their new track, Something For The Weekend, on his breakfast radio show. The song became a hit, as did their next two singles: Becoming More Like Alfie and The Frog Princess. Since then The Divine Comedy have gone from strength to strength, known for their superb indie and baroque tinged pop songs and innovative live performances.
