Let your voice be heard...

Earlier this week, Keywest lead singer, Andy Kavanagh, spoke to JOE.ie about Dublin City Council's proposal to ban amps from Grafton Street. Read the full interview here if you missed it… Speaking to JOE, Andy said: "If they outright ban amps from Grafton Street, that's the end of the livelihoods of 90% of the street performers. "That includes bands like Keywest who use electric guitar amps, but also jugglers, magicians, dancers and anyone else who needs an amp to communicate with an audience on a noisy, busy street." Well the lads from Keywest decided to create this great video asking people to email their support for buskers to SaveIrishBusking@KeywestOfficial.com and to tell their local politicians how they feel about the potential clamp down on busking in Dublin.
