The gig scene quietens up a bit around Christmas and rightly so, it’s a time for family and friends but there is a great opportunity here to catch the Irish act you’ve been meaning to catch for weeks and months as some top Irish acts prove that rest is for the week.
Gig of the week this week goes to Villagers playing Vicar Street, constantly growing in stature if you can get a ticket to this it’s 100% worth catching. Amazing live.
Other good gigs this week include Rubberbandits at The Pavillion, A Tribute to Derek Nally in Whelans, Dark Room Notes in The Workmans Club, The Coronas at The Royal Theatre, Aslan at Vicar Street, Fight Like Apes at The Stables, Jack L at the INEC and many many more.
