Phil Lynott's mother Philomena Lynott stated that Dizzy Lizzy are "the closest to playing my son's music" and this sentiment has echoed throughout the years. Dizzy Lizzy do indeed have an amazing sound and resemblance to the classic 70s & 80s Irish rock band, Thin Lizzy.

One of the country's leading and most dynamic tribute acts, established in 1994, their set-list faithfully recreates that trademark Lizzy sound.

They have also performed and toured with the original Thin Lizzy guitarist Eric Bell who, on first seeing the band, reacted "I could only watch three numbers owing to the emotions. The resemblance to Phil and the mannerisms and playing, it was spooky – it made the hairs stand up on the back of my neck."
