Murder Plan are a Dublin-based vaudeville blues band. Their sound can be described as a little bit chaos peppered with enchanting mania. With songs & styles encompassing rock, tangos, Balkan gypsy sounds, blues & jazz, they mix & match motifs like a drunken arsonist in a Parisian police line-up.
The band is made up of Stephanie O’ Keeffe (vocals), Dara Melinn (guitar), Steve Flynn (bass), Donal Melinn (drums) and Cathal Melinn (piano). None of the Melinns are related to each other and their coming together to form the band is a funny story that they sometimes recount at live shows, though it’s not something they reveal on a regular basis.
They’ve been playing together since May 2006 and still manage to hold down day-jobs in the Adult entertainment industry while rocking like crazed geologists throughout the night.
Their live performances tend to be classy, macabre affairs with a touch of humour and lots of energy for all to see. Roll up, roll up…

Hiho, 3rd time that I heard Barcelona today. Well, and about the pinkskinny Irishs in hotter areas ... well, if the Barceloneses knew, that the Celts are the ones who invented the samhain as sun-feast then they would spend every pinkskinny one a bottle sun milk for less ;) (And Barcelona may be nice, but Ireland is much much more beautiful). Sláinte, Elke
Hi planning murders, thanks for your comment. In Dublin it's cold? Then I guess I have to send some warm sunshines to Ireland. Rock on and be the sunshine in Dublin's heart. Ahoi
I'm happy to hear it went well, although I don't think I know Cassidy's. I'm finishing up next Friday and we'll wind our way home after that. ACDC are playing in the Olympic Stadium next Thursday but I knew I'd be working so I didn't bother looking for a ticket. Roll on June 28th !!
