This is a film about a Horslips, about what they did and how they did it and about how it all affected an awful lot of people.

For the years that was the 70’s Horslips ploughed their unique musical furrow from their home base in Ireland into mainland Europe and on into America. In a eight year period from 1972 to their last show in 1980, when Charles O’Connor’s fiddle spun hypnotically through the spotlights in the Ulster Hall, they had produced a staggering 12 albums and performed over 2000 times. DVD is a film about that journey.
