Track Dogs

Admission: €15/€12

Date: Postponed to 12th December

Time: 8.30pm

Track Dogs have been barnstorming the UK with some major festival appearances and collaborations. 2019 was a pivotal year including playing to a heaving, rocking Trafalgar Square on St Patrick's Day and surprise on-stage participation of Show of Hands’ Steve Knightley and Seth Lakeman at Shrewsbury Folk Festival. Well-established in Spain where they are based, they are surprising music lovers everywhere with “Sun-shiny songs thriving on dark themes behind irresistible rhythms.”

 

The two Irishmen, Englishman and an American (Garrett Wall, Dave Mooney, Howard Brown & Robbie K.Jones) whose artistic name derives from the dark subterranean world of New York’s subway system, present Fire On The Rails, a kicking album that grows on the work that has opened so many doors for the band. If they are still new to you, check out previous releases Kansas City Out Groove and Uke Songs By Track Dogs and see why they are so hard to pigeonhole.
