The Longshots- Cracking old school RnB, with a 1960s garagey vibe in places but more of a mid 70?s Pub rock thing taking a kine from the Feelgoods back to Ducks Deluxe etc. Rebel Aces ? Slap bass, skittering drums and twangsome guitars?these Rebels be Rockabilly baby? playing covers from Elvis to Stray Cats, right thru to rockabilly versions of songs by other artists from T-Rex to Depeche Mode They can certainly do it well, Ace indeed. Foxpalmer ? Foxy Fleetwood Mac type mature pop fare- or maybe Haim? Anyway, soft focus rock pop with soulful diva vox is the way of the fox. Cunning sassy styling. Little Storping In The Swuff? Psychedelic folky pop, lovely shades of Syd Barret but also techy, urbane pop sounds, a bit like Momus.

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.
