The line-up for HWCH every year allows me to quickly take stock on the Irish music scene. After looking at the list, it’s a healthy time, it seems.
I am looking forward to the likes of: Armoured Bear, Bats, The Brothers Movement, Carly Sings, Class Of 1984, The Dagger Lees, Dublin Duck Dispensary (because of the name), Fighting With Wire, Fred, The Holy Roman Army, Hooray for Humans, Kill Krinkle Club, Le Galaxie, Lines Drawing Circles, One Day International, Robotnik, So Cow, Sounds of System Breakdown, The Vinny Club at first glance. Unfortunately, the Saturday clashes with the Kraftwerk gig…
