THE PALE & Guests
— Friday 16th

Back in the 1990s,The Pale were hailed as Ireland's next big thing, adored for their quirky blend of European rhythms, mandolins, a drum machine, bald heads, a bag of esoteric tunes and Matthew Devereux's distinctive vocals. Frustrated by record company woes, among other things, it didn't last and they called it a day. Now, with an album deal under their belts, the core twosome of Devereux and Shane Wearen are back in earnest, supported by a revolving line-up that includes guitar maestro Colm Quearney. The Pale enjoyed a magical night in July at the Stables to celebrate the release of their first album in years 'The Contents of a Shipwreck'. Expect this night to be no different.

The Australian Pearl Jam
Saturday — 17th May
Probably the finest tribute act to Pearl Jam you are likely to see! The Australian Pearl Jam have been spreading the good word of Eddie Vedder & Co. since 2005. The band has played to packed venues both at home and abroad. Their two hour set spans the entire Pearl Jam catalogue from early classics such as Alive, Even Flow, Jeremy & Black, Betterman, Do the Evolution & Light Years; right up to modern anthems such as Life Wasted & Worldwide Suicide. The Australian Pearl Jam pride themselves on recreating the studio sound of Pearl Jam, while mixing it with live energy that Pearl Jam fans know & love. Short of cloning, this is as close as it gets!!!
