DROKKR

Having grown up listening to Detroit Techno and progressively moving through electronic music, Irish producer DROKKR took up production around 4 years ago, taking influences from a 17 year love affair with electronic music. The live show that he currently brings to the table is one full of driving beats, quirky percussion and solid heavy duty bass.

Damoikea

Damian Tubbritt releases music as Ikeaboy and, more lately, Damoikea. He has released records on Dublin's Detroit inspired 'D1' label, 'Invisibleagent' and an EP on 'Boxfade' in June 2011. He is currently involved in a collaboration with Ian 'Bot' Fleming that will see both of them perform at Spaziomusica Festival in Cagliari, Sardinia, in October 2014.

Ian Dalton

When some people went to university to study, Ian stayed at home studying records, soul and rhythm. He is deeply influenced by the sounds and cultures of Detroit, Chicago & New York's disco scene. Ian is behind a new Irish record label called "The Likes of Us". The label's first release is out soon with distribution through Juno.

Last two nights of Jim Nolan's Blackwater Angel Fri 21 & Sat 22 Nov, 'A truly magical and powerful piece of theatre' (The Stage)

Blackwater Angel by Jim Nolan is set in County Waterford in the summer of 1666, and dramatizes the temptations of Valentine Greatrakes, exploring the relationships of this 'stroker', or miracle worker, with his art, anxieties and fears as they play out with his family and retinue and with a troupe of strolling players. Given its world premiere at the Abbey Theatre in 2001, the play is presented for 8 performances only by Garter Lane Arts Centre with Waterford Institute of Technology with a stellar community cast directed by Jim Nolan. '***** hugely courageous...a deeply serious work of soul-raking, big-stage literature' The Guardian

Tickets from €18/15.50 on 051-855038 or garterlane.ie
