Can Kickers
The Can Kickers play loud, fast old timey music with the occasional funky beat thrown in. Think what would happen if Minor Threat and the Ramones picked up banjoes and fiddles and joined a New Orleans-style second line. The Can Kickers like to play DIY shows for people who like to dance. They've played basements, living rooms, bars, clubs, bomb shelters, on the back of a moving bus, on the back of a moving pickup truck, and even at a stadium once. They've played all over the US multiple times and taken a trip or two to Ireland and the Netherlands. It's all about having a good time, so come out and see them live when you can.
"The Can Kickers really know how to turn an old-time tune into a joyful, foot-stomping, shout it out, party!" -Tommy Ramone

Lynched
Two street rats pick up a guitar and a tin whistle. The scrawny shits start to play and sing for food. People soon warm to their cheeky ballads of anti-authoritarian blackguardism and soon they have lots of friends, so they continue. After touring France they realise that their new found status can win them not only impressionable friends, but beer, and crusty bread with smelly cheese on it and after another years hiatus they played gigs again over the summer in mainland Europe. This will be their first gig since returning to Ireland from three months spent touring Canada, the USA and Mexico.

Relative newcomers Boneyard Witch and Nakatomi will be starting the night with their brand of wastoid rock'n'roll and chaotic post-hardcore respectively, while DJ Willie Jones will be on the decks until everyone gets tired and has to go home.
