Gorilla Troubadoour are an emerging energetic funk rock band that consists of Dylan Kearns (Lead Vox/Rhythm guitar), Eamon Ganley (lead guitar), Eric Walsh (drums) and James O Connor (Bass-Racer). The group draw inspiration from legends like The Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Arctic Monkeys to create heart pumping grooves and atmospheric tunes. In summer 2017 they played venues across Ireland including Limerick, Waterford and Mullingar to which they were received very well.
Supporting them is Safari, a three piece Dublin based band. A broad range of influences have gone into creating the band’s sound, from 1960s surf music, through late ‘70s New Wave all the way to more recent indie rock bands. Having played gigs in Ireland and the UK, Safari has been fine tuning its set over the past few months. The band consists of Sam Geraghty on vocals and guitar, Tymek Kocurkiewicz on bass and Emil Kapusta on drums.
Tickets are only €6, so head down to Whean’s this Tuesday to tap into this vibrant heart of new music.
