If you dont already know these guys, they are a 3 piece band from Galway who last July released their first full length album "at evensong" to reviews such as;

"Evoking the same emotions as Snow Patrol and Duke Special" Shilpa Ganatra, Hotpress 2006

"The album is not only one of the most impressive recordings by a Galway band over the last few years but is probably as good as any album released by an Irish artist in quite a while"- Galway Advertiser

"A talented album that exhibits an endearing sincerity, and an impressively mature sound. Musically enchanting, this is a band that deserves praise, and the success that should accompany it. " 4/5 - bandwagon.ie 2006

They are a truly excellent band and I have only booked them cos they're brilliant ha! come along if you can, should be a good night + its free so what could go wrong!

As for the bar itself;

Its a cuban themed place. Big 15m2 mural of a cuban sunset on the wall + the coolest ceiling you will ever see...not to be missed by anyone remotely interested in music. we do 25 cocktails at €7 a pop as well as Pitchers of beer and cocktails and Labatts Ice for €3
