CCC's Street Art Contest #156 ~ WESTLIFE StreetArt find in SLIGO - IRELAND 🇮🇪 ~ 7

Hi all 👋🏻

Today I want to share with you a StreetArt find I discovered while I was exploring the city of #SLIGO in IRELAND 🇮🇪 😊 FROM THE BAND WESTLIFE

I captured this #mural / #artwork on a #wall in a parking lot/ side street last week on 1 August 2023.

Let’s have a look at my StreetArt find for today :

Artist: KELAN CURRAN
Title: Westlife
Location: ”just off Temple Street” - SLIGO #IRELAND
Work Created: around 2015 (I think)

I couldn’t find much about the artist, it was hard to find him already with no tag… what I did find is he is a barman at “The Snug” Source!

Let’s have a closer look at this work of this band:

On the left we find the following information written:

And on the right:

I found on the following webpage: Source!
This information about the band.

Westlife is an Irish pop vocal band. Three of the four members ( Shane Filan, Kian Egan and Mark Feehily) are schoolmates from Summerhill in Sligo.
All three of them participated in a school production of Grease with fellow Sligo men Derrick Lacey, Graham Keighron and Michael Garrett.
These six formed a group called six as one which was seen as the start of Westlife. Later, they changed the name of the band to IOYOU.
Later on, Louis Walsh formed a new band with three of the members (Shane Filan, Kian Egan and Mark Feehily) and Brian McFadden and Nick Byrne who were added to the line-up .
The rest is history.

Sligo is proud of them 😎

No… this is not my kind of music 🎶 if you are questioning it. Don’t think I heard many of their songs… 🤓 to be honest.

Let’s not divert further 😉
Close up on their faces:

I love the black and white in these portraits. Well painted by the artist. 😊

And that’s all for todays #StreetArt post my friends. Until the next one! 👋🏻😎
Hope you enjoyed my #photos of this StreetArt find. #haveyoubeenhere
Thank you for looking and reading 😊 🙏🏻 Stay tuned for more… 😉
