Countdown: Rhythm & Roots
 |
| Lee Bains III & The Glory Fire |
In three days time Kilkenny Rhythm & Roots roars into life…
With the countdown commencing yesterday (see here), here’s part deux of a personal list of “catch ’em quick”s.
Who?: Lee Bains III & The Glory Fire
Where?: Set Theatre / Kytelers Inn
When?: Saturday (10pm), Sunday (8.30pm)
Why?: Sup Pop-signed southerners who rock like the well-oiled party machine they were designed to be. New record Dereconstructed is “a master class in authentic Gulf Coast choogle”. Tough to argue with that. Bring a change of shirt as you’re walking out of this one sweaty.

Who?: John Murry
Where?: Ryan’s Bar
When?: Friday (9pm)
Why?: Ireland loves John Murry, and thankfully, John Murry seems to love Ireland, backed up by the fact that the architect behind The Graceless Age arrived in Ireland over a month ago for a short tour and hasn’t left yet. Let’s hope he never leaves. Here’s an extract from a long chat I had with the man himself a few weeks back.
