Rising from the ashes of various other well known bands of Bray, from roots to punk rock and everything in between, THE DEADLY NIGHTSHADES have risen to the pinnacle of the Dublin music scene in 2009, raising nightshade awareness through good old fashioned live gigs and the release of their self-titled debut EP, The Deadly Nightshades.
They’re a melting pot of indie, punk rock, world music and reggae. They mix soaring vocals with complex melodies, driving rhythms & catchy choruses.
They are primarily a live band and release a lot of pent up energy on stage. With standout tracks like "WAR" and "NIGHTSHADE" don't be surprised if you find The Deadly Nightshades at the top of the charts and beyond.
I would like to take this opportunity of thanking you for performing at the charity concert held in the summer. €4,000 was raised for the second phase of the Holy Cross Primary School in Lusaka, in Zambia. I have uploaded some photos of the night so you might see yourself!!
Have a wonderful Christmas and best wishes for 2010.
