Great new Irish music and some additions to a quality festival…

JOE are big fans of the self-proclaimed sea soaked gypsy folk menaces, The Eskies.

Having met the lads and seen them perform live, we can genuinely say that the description of the Dubliners is 100% apt (especially the menace part) but we can forgive them if they keep releasing incredibly catchy tunes like their new effort ‘Jesus Don’t Save Me’.

If you need an introduction to the band then this video perfectly captures their manic and infectious energy.

If you’re looking for a fix of live music then the news that Fight Like Apes, Ham Sandwich and SOAK have all been added to the Hard Working Class Heroes will certainly please you.

It’s free into the daytime events while night-time three-day tickets cost €45 or €20 per day.

You can take a look at the full line-up here.
