Description

Skarakooda is an instrumental London Ska band with a mega brass section & good people spreading big, bold, brassy dance craze enabling good vibes. Good Hustles-Really hooky punk flecked indie pop with rousing choruses, like an edgier take on early Kaiser Chiefs, great stuff.

North Cape Lights-Snappy, catchy indie rock with a nod to the late '90's indie scene, Editors, early Muse etc.

Mad trip French indie rock with a soupcon of post grunge, so it's a Queens Of The Stoneage vibe in places but also recalls the edginess of early Acrtic Monkeys, all good.

Out The Window Influenced by the New York '70s scene, especially like Talking Heads. Also a bit of Television and Franz Ferdinand.

Description

The Dublin Castle is a legendary pub and music venue located 2 minutes away from Camden Town tube station. It has been run by the same family for over 28 years and features 4 live bands every night as well as a great selection of beers, ciders and wines.

There are DJs after the bands on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays and a fabulous jukebox in the front bar if you’re after a more relaxed atmosphere.

But what is it that makes the Dublin Castle the long-standing centre of the indie rock universe? Is it because it’s Madness’ birthplace? Because its stage has been graced by everyone from Blur, through Coldplay, Supergrass, The Killers, The Arctic Monkeys, Billy Bragg, etc? Is it because it was no surprise to see Amy Winehouse behind the bar serving costumers? Or Suggs? (who, mind you, tended to ignore costumers and serve himself) Or is it because far from being just another Camden venue it has established itself as an indie rock institution? The answer is that it’s not only because of its musical heritage that people come to the Dublin Castle, it’s because whilst you enjoy a pint, play some tunes on the jukebox, check out the live bands, get your dancing shoes on for our DJs, chat to our friendly staff or even stage-invade a little, you’re inadvertently being part of this movement the Dublin Castle leads, this cultural legacy. Expect no castle battlements. Just pure rock and roll royalty.
