CrazyTown live in The Bowery Rathmines BANK HOLIDAY SUNDAY – 29th of October

That’s right we are bringin these late 90’s Rockers in all their glory to Dublin for the craziest Halloween Party imagianble!

CRAZYTOWN

Crazy Town’s music and image reflected one of the most dynamic and volatile sociocultural environments on the planet — Los Angeles — where the urban squalor of the South Central district exists just minutes away from the glitz of Beverly Hills. Spearheaded by a team of producers/vocalists, Seth “Shifty Shellshock” Binzer and Bret “Epic” Mazur, Crazy Town combined hip-hop’s lyrical attitude and rhythmic sass with the muscle of live rock instrumentation. The combination yielded the group a number one hit in 2001, when “Butterfly” topped the Billboard 100 and helped push the band’s debut effort, The Gift of Game, to platinum status.

Licensed to IllBret Mazur and Seth Binzer were both surrounded by music while growing up in Southern California. Mazur’s father was Billy Joel’s manager, while Binzer’s father was an artist and filmmaker who directed the Rolling Stones’ live movie Ladies & Gentlemen, The Rolling Stones. The two boys preferred a different style of music, however, listening instead to rap acts like N.W.A., Cypress Hill, and Ice-T, as well as alternative rock bands like the Cure. Originally from New York, Mazur started crafting beats and cutting tracks at an early age and found himself working on records by MC Serch (of 3rd Bass), Eazy-E, and MC Lyte; he was also House of Pain’s DJ for a short period. Meanwhile, Binzer had come across a copy of the Beastie Boys’ Licensed to Ill while in Mexico, and discovered a side of hip-hop that inspired him to start making demo recordings on his own.
Binzer and Mazur initially came together as the Brimstone Sluggers, and while the pair recorded plenty of music, their contributions to other hip-hoppers’ projects prevented them from completing a full album of their own. They also each ended up in rehabilitation clinics, where the two began writing letters that helped hatch the plan to form Crazy Town: a hip-hop band featuring a full instrumental lineup to complement the rapping vocalists. The group was to be rooted in classic rap-rock miscegenation like Run-D.M.C.’s “Rock Box,” or Public Enemy and Anthrax’s collaborative effort “Bring Tha Noize.”

Check Your HeadDoug “Faydoedeelay” Miller (bass), Rust Epique (guitar), Anthony “Trouble” Valli (guitar), DJ AM (turntables), and drummer James “JBJ” Bradley — a former session player who played on the Beastie Boys’ Check Your Head album — were recruited to join the group, and Crazy Town was officially born. The band’s debut album, The Gift of Game, was produced by close friend Josh Abraham and featured appearances by KRS-One, dancehall toastmaster Mad Lion, and Dirty Unit. The album spawned a world-wide hit with “Butterfly,” an ode to attractive women, and put the band on the road to success. After 2002’s Howard Benson-produced Darkhorse failed to receive similar accolades, the band broke up in 2003.

The Brimstone SluggersCrazy Town’s members pursued production projects and solo careers as the decade progressed, but between Binzer’s myriad bouts with drug addiction and the death of DJ AM (2009), attempts to reunite the band never truly took hold. That all changed in 2013 when the Mazur and Binzer let fly in an interview that they were currently in the studio working on new material. The resulting Brimstone Sluggers — the moniker that the duo operated under before becoming Crazy Town — dropped in the summer of 2015.

Bunoscionn – music turned upside down.

Bunoscionn have their own unique take on Irish traditional, folk and modern music, using the different musical backgrounds and influences of each band member.

Bunoscionn draw their influences from the likes of the Dubliners, Bob Marley, the Pogues , Kila, too many to mention really, as well as some local heroes.

With their main arsenal of banjo, whistles, flutes, bodhrán, mandolin, guitars, djembe, drums, bass and blended vocals, the Bunoscionn sound emits an overall warm rootsy feel with enough kick, that has a little something for everyone.

Get ready to dance, sing, scream & shout.

GRAND draw on a melting pot of influence ranging from Blues to Ska, Reggae, Swing and on toward Punk, Gypsy Folk and Irish folk (or ‘skappalacian’ music as we like to call it). The group was conceived through a shared love of these types of music; however our original music is our way of taking these older styles and using them to create something new.

Polyphonic melodies are our cup of tea and every member of the band can take the lead while also playing his or her part in creating the wall of sound.

No Stairway are a Galway based, Led Zeppelin tribute act. Comprised of 4 musicians with a great love and respect for the band, they aim to recreate Zeppelin’s live presence and studio albums as faithfully as possible.

From Plant’s soaring vocals, Bonham’s thunderous drums, Jones’ multitasking, to Page’s blistering guitar work; all the parts are treated with the respect they deserve!

Having formed in 2013, they are constantly adding to the set-list, and to the bag of tricks.

Expect all the classic tunes, and even some that Zeppelin themselves rarely, if ever, performed live!

Box Office Open from 7pm

Music from 8:30pm

The Clandestinos formed in 2014 in their hometown of Galway. Their intention was to celebrate and pay tribute to the much loved music of reggae, ska and latin and to bring its live atmosphere and vibe to Irish audiences. From classic Jamaican roots reggae, the British ska and punk artists it helped influence, to the latin tinged sounds implemented by the likes of Manu Chao and Buena Vista Social Club; The Clandestinos fuse all of this together in their 7-piece live show with the agenda being to get the high spirits up and to make people move!

Having started out as a more minimal affair in their stage set up, the completed line-up now comprises of acoustic and electric guitars, bass, drums and is completed by a trio of saxophone, trumpet and trombone. Expect Classic Roots favourites, Ska and Punk-Reggae from 80’s era London, groovy latin and a hint of dub here and there for good measure.

Since Shawn released his first album in the fall of 2012, his music has reached millions of people. His songs have been featured on CBS, HBO and most recently in Sony Playstation’s trailer for their upcoming blockbuster game “The Last of Us 2”.

Shawn James & The Shapeshifters are a 5 piece heavy blues rock band from Fayetteville, Arkansas. Their brand of hard hitting electrified dirty delta blues rock combined with Shawn’s soulfully roaring vocals make for an intense listening experience whether playing the records or seeing them live.
​
With their busy tour schedule, you can catch them playing festivals and shows all over the world or hear their music featured on Discovery Channel, NBC, and other media platforms.
​
They’ve continuously gained momentum every year since they formed and show no signs of slowing down.

Venue Open from 4pm

Box Office open from 7pm

Music from 8:30pm

Queens Of The Stone Age tribute from Cork, Ireland playing through the catalogue of one of the most iconic bands of current times.

SikTh is a six member progressive/technical metal band, originating from Watford, England. They formed in March 2001, with their music being under the scope of many music magazines such as Kerrang! and Metal Hammer and a favourite of BBC Radio 1 DJ Mary Anne Hobbs. The band were signed to independent record label Bieler Bros. Records at the time of their disbandment.
SikTh’s style of music is hard to categorize and as they incorporate many different elements of technical metal, metalcore, death metal, groove metal, rock and hardcore. They are commonly categorized as progressive metal due to their unorthodox approach, as well as technical metal and mathcore due to the complex nature of their instrumental playing abilities.
Their debut EP Let The Transmitting Begin was first released in the UK in 2002, featuring songs that all appeared on their debut album, The Trees Are Dead & Dried Out… Wait For Something Wild, which was released August 18, 2003 on Gut Records. Two singles were released from the album, namely Scent Of The Obscene and Peep Show.
SikTh’s second album Death of a Dead Day was released in the UK June 26, 2006 after the band performed at Download Festival 2006. Later that year the band headlined the Collision Course festival in Bridgend and Yeovil and performed across the UK for their own headline tour.
The band announced their split in May 2008 after a hiatus of a few months, stating that ‘if it were viable for us to carry on – we would’.
In 2014, The band announced their reunion, with their first live show being at Download, Headlining the Redbull stage.
