Today we remember and celebrate the remarkable life of Lord Henry Mount Charles — visionary, rock ‘n’ roll trailblazer, and the man who dreamed big for Slane Castle.
This iconic photo, taken at the very first Slane Concert in 1981, captures a moment in music history: Lord Henry with the legendary Phil Lynott of Thin Lizzy. That day, a tradition was born, one that would bring the world’s greatest artists to the Boyne Valley and turn Slane into a symbol of live music in Ireland.
Lord Henry’s passion, courage, and rebellious spirit shaped not just a place, but a legacy. We honour him today with gratitude, pride, and music in our hearts.
May he rest in peace.
