‼️Gig Announcement‼️

DUB INTRUDA & DAMAI SOUND SYSTEM take to the stage in Friday 5th July

DUB Intruda

Dub Intruda was created in Ireland in October 2019 on the Dublin-Newbridge axis as a natural continuation of previous music activities of two enthusiasts in both music and reggae culture in general.
The band, includes Mariusz Dujka, a producer responsible for the music, sound and technical aspects, and Piotr Noizy B Sznyter, a lyricist, vocalist and vocal coach. Both are fascinated by the culture of Reggae & Dub.
The vibration and positive message contained in the sounds of sweet music from Jamaica in its many varieties

Damai SoundSystem

The Evolution of Damai Sound started from the love of collecting, playing and producing roots reggae and dub.
Damai Soundsystem was started by Bob Damai with his friend and long time collaborator Salim Dastan aka Mr Upfull. Bob landed on Irish shores in 2005 where he discovered Reggae Soundsystem Culture. It was within reggae dance culture he met Salim, an Irish-Malaysian producer and composer. A collaboration was formed and the mighty Damai Sound was born.
In the mix, bringing the mic to life is Aminah whos own soulful free-style jam complements this roots experience.

The dream of Damai Soundsystem is to play the sound, with you all dancing under the moonlight in love and peace.

‼️Gig Announcement‼️

Dmac Burns

We are delighted to announce in association with and his band will be live from on Friday 13th September

DMac Burns combines elements of reggae, dub, r&b, indie rock and more into heartfelt lyrically rich songs.
The musical moniker of New York City-bred singer-songwriter Danny McDonald began as a solo project in an apartment in Washington Heights in 2020, but has recently become a global affair.

When McDonald moved to West Cork in 2022 he met keyboardist / dub-specialist, Matias Saldivia Comas who hails from Buenos Aires, Argentina. The two bonded over the fact that they were city boys living in rural Ireland with a shared love for roots reggae and dub.

Over the next year and a half they spent most of their time writing, recording, and refining a live set that features many styles played over a backbone of dub reggae.

His EP, The Longest Night came out on the 21st June 2023 and was announced with a performance at the legendary West Cork venue, Connolly’s of Leap. It received praise from reggae publications, Rootfire and Top Shelf Music.
