Macklemore paints mural in Irish bar

Written by . Published: July 17 2014

Rapper Macklemore turned into a freelance artist by creating a one-of-a-kind mural for a bar in Ireland.


The Thrift Shop hitmaker played a gig at Dublin's Marlay Park in front of 37,000 eager fans last week (10Jul14), and to commemorate the concert, he showed off his artistic skills at a local bar called The Bernard Shaw.


Macklemore stopped by the watering hole to take in the World Cup soccer game with his friends, but before leaving the pub, he was asked by the owners if he would like to add his own mural to their graffiti wall.


The rapper obliged and later posted a photo of his finished artwork of a moustache-wearing man on his Instagram.com page. Underneath the drawing, he tagged the piece, "Macklemore, 37,000, Marlay Park, Dublin 2014".
