About Bagatelle

Bagatelle were formed in 1978 and had a very well known single 'Summer In Dublin' which has become something of an Irish classic. Other Bagatelle hits include 'Second Violin', 'Love is the Reason' and 'Leeson Street Lady'.

After a long hiatus Bagatelle got together to re-form the band in 1992 with original members Liam Reilly, Ken Doyle and John O'Brien.

The band returned to touring in 2010 and released an album of cover versions entitled Under The Covers.

The group's lead singer and principal songwriter Liam Reilly died on 1 January 2021.
