Red Heron ?  well, it?s something of a Xmas into New Year tradition now for us to have a meeting of the magical musical minds that make up Red Heron reconvene and play their hearts and guts out in The Dublin?

In case u don?t know, RH are a young Hackney based band playing post punk tinged psychedelic rock, mixing up progressive touches with psych rock trippy bits, short sharp attacks and explosive rocknroll, and switching roles and instruments effortlessly as they go?

The Scolts? Brilliantly brash and breezy young Brightonian indie surf punkers come to the Dublin Castle for the first time. Ace! Surf?s Up cats and kittens. 

Staaro ? Queercore punk/post punk happening from South of the river. Great tood and a goodly grind. Not of course to be confused with Staro in Suicide Squad, although they could probably also give Idris Elba a decent fight.

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.
