OUT ON A LIMB IS 10

BOURKES & DOLANS – LIMERICK CITY

SATURDAY, 10/8/2013

Limerick independent record label Out On A Limb Record celebrates ten years of putting out quality releases this summer, and to mark that event have planned a birthday day in their home city.

On Saturday, 10th August, two venues will host bands from the label’s roster. An afternoon matinee show – run by pals of the label Seoda Shows – will take place at Bourke’s Bar on Catherine Street, featuring Owensie, Hidden Highways, and Peter Delaney.

Later on that evening the party moves to Dolan’s Warehouse, where the label have been putting on shows since they were in nappies. Current label acts Crayonsmith, Elk, Jogging, and windings, will all feature on the night. The label is delighted to announce that giveamanakick – the first band to release on the label – will be returning for one night only to perform at Dolan’s.

Tickets priced €10 cover entry to both venues. Please note that capacity at Bourkes is limited. Tickets will be available from Dolan’s Bar, Bourke’s Bar, and dolans.ie from 17th June.


About Out On A Limb Records
Out On A Limb Records is an independent record label started in Limerick City, Ireland. The label was set up in the summer of 2003 (July 3rd to be precise) with the release of "Is it OK to be loud, Jesus?", the debut album from local band giveamanakick. The label was founded by Richard Bourke and Albert Twomey, both prominent members of the since defunct Aspersion Music Collective (AMC). They were joined at the end of 2003 by Ciarán Ryan.

2003 also saw the arrival of Cork outfit Rest to the label with their contribution to a split Christmas single with gamak. Since those two, a heap of other acts have joined the label. They include: Waiting Room, Ten Past Seven, windings, Hooray For Humans, Crayonsmith, Owensie, Hidden Highways, Elk, Jogging, and Peter Delaney. Acts such as Berkeley, Vertigo Smyth, C!ties, and Guilty Optics have also featured on split 7s released by the label.

To date, the label has released 16 albums, 4 EPs, 5 7s, and a number of other bits n' bops. The last few years have been quite prolific for the label - along with a windings 7" and Hidden Highways EP, 2012 saw the release of LPs from Jogging (Take Courage), Owensie (Citizens) and the Choice-nominated I Am Not The Crow from windings. This year they've released the long awaited second album from Rest (I Hold The Wolf) and the new album from Peter Delaney (Witch Bottle). Two new albums are due for release in the Autumn - the debut album from Hidden Highways and the keenly anticipated follow up to 2008's White Wonder from Crayonsmith.

Out On A Limb Records is still based in Limerick, and since 2009, all aspects of the label have been run by label partners, Richard Bourke and Ciarán Ryan.
