It’s one of those quieter weeks on the gig front, maybe everybody needs a bit of a break before festival season kicks off with Vantastival and Dublin’s Camden Crawl in two weeks. Two weeks, that flew in and it’s nice of the sun to finally make an appearance too.
Anyway back to the topic on hand, that’s Gig of the Week if you haven’t been paying attention. Having proved very popular over in the UK and an appearance on Jools Holland, if you don’t mind. Make sure you’re in The Workman’s Club for the very cool Winston Yellen or Night Beds, as he’s better known, on Friday night. Tickets are 13 and still available.
Tuesday sees Australian singer-songwriter Paul Kelly in The Unitarian Church with special guest Eleanor McEvoy. Tickets are €23 and still available.
Sweeden has become renowned for infectious pop music, let us not forget they do indulge in their fair share of death metal. You can catch Hypocrisy at The Button Factory on Wednesday. Tickets still available and are €22.50.
Veronica Falls, an English indie pop band hailing from London play Whelans on Thursday, ahead of playing Voodoo in Belfast on Friday. They’re on tour having recently released their second album ‘Waiting For Something To Happen’. They have some catchy tunes so do drop by if you’re at a loose end. Tickets are still available and are €15.
Local lad Mark Geary plays The Grand Social on Friday night. Tickets are €13 and still available.
Looking beyond The Pale and to Limerick, that loveable chap Gavin James is playing Upstairs in Dolans on Saturday night. Tickets for the cozy venue are still available and only a tenner, an outright bargain considering he is fresh from selling out two nights at Whelans, touring England with Kodaline and winning Choice Song of the Year. Definitely one to catch if you’re floating about Limerick.
Get down to The Button Factory for Public Enemy on Sunday. Tickets are €32.50 and surprisingly still available.
