Ponytail, start things off with a post-rock show fuelled completely by sugar, sweat and rocket fuel. Expect hyper guitar riffage, screaming and freestyle jamming. I’ve been listening to their records “Kamehameha” and “Ice Cream Spiritual” and I can’t wait. Support comes in the form of highly touted local bands The Vinny Club and R.S.A.G. Have a listen here.

Immanu El play on the Saturday. Touted as one of the next-big things to come out of Sweden, these guys have been compared to Sigur Ros for their instrumental prowess extending from delicate atmospheric tickling to swells of emotional explosions. Have a listen here.

O’Death round things off with a free spirited folky hoedown. Expect banjo feedback, gypsy fiddle and violin, hand claps and footstomps. Expect the energy of a punk gig, the swagger of Tom Waits, all wrapped up in a folk that makes this band their own. Have a listen here.

So see the bands of tomorrow, today! All you have to do is email me which band you wanna see at dublinthom@gmail.com
