We're downstairs in the Bankers Inn on Trinity Street, every tuesday from 9pm. Its a singer/songwriter/open-mic night which is totally acoustic. Its a great night and you could bump into many of the current crop of successful artistes in Ireland. In the past we've seen Declan O'Rourke, Ann Scott, Shea Cotter, Alice Jago and many more up and coming artistes.
So if you feel like getting out there and playing a song or you know someone who should or you just like music, come along and check us out!
Many years ago I used to run the Tuesday night in the International Bar which helped start many a career. When this ended, there were 2 very special nights to mark its end and celebrate its existence, you can read the Press Release below for the event.
