Description
The Beautiful Game ? classic Brit Rock and Indie influences, and a hint of punk, but it?s their passionate approach to the very act of being on stage that make this band so very exciting. Great frontman in Jason Crowley too. For fans of Oasis, Buzzcocks, Blur and The Libertines but very much doing their own thing.
Inbetween Honey ? great to welcome this Dublin/Eire band back to the DC, purveyors of an impressive array of sweetly delivered songs full of scally pop charm and some emotion tugging twists and turns. Great vocal too.
The Locals ? from nearer to home, a local band for local people. Whelligan ? very talented Merseyside songwriter and psychedelic sonic sculptor.
John Bass ? another great songsmith from the locale, playing a beautiful solo set of songs showcasing social justice and other fine thoughts.
DJ Fuzz keeps the dancefloor abuzz until 2am.
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.
