    The Gangsters are a ten piece Ska band from Dublin who play a mix of original music and covers.

    Doors are at 8pm and bands will start at 8:30.

    Admission is only €5

    This night will be followed by Northern soul and djs playing all your favourite classic tunes downstairs till 2:30am!!!

    +Special Guests to be confirmed

    The Gangsters play a solid, 2-Tone influenced (but not obsessed) brand of ska, tastefully accented with bright horns, smooth keys, and blue-eyed-soulful vocals from singer Patrick Colton. Extra points for bringing the political element back into the ska on tracks like "Cardboard City," "Mistaken Identity," and "Easy Life"" -- it's something all too few bands are doing thse days. Other highlights include "Rude Boyz," the bubblegummy "Jackie," the atmospheric "Lead Your Own Life," and the reggae-influenced "Jamaican Shuffle." Not bad for a bunch of boys from Dublin!”
