Echo Bar is a new music-focused bar opened by The Drifter in Bray

Mark Flynn aka The Drifter has opened up a new music-focused bar in Bray.

The DJ/producer’s new Echo Bar opened this past weekend, and is a DJ-focused bar, that serves to address the lack of such spaces in the Wicklow and South Country Dublin area.

Echo Bar is on the Bray seafront, at 7 Strand Road.

“Our vision for Echo Bar is to create a unique space dedicated to high-quality sound and music. We need more places to dance. Wicklow and South County Dublin lack these kinds of music venues. Echo Bar aims to help.

DJ bookings by The Drifter so far including Magnier (House Of Disco), Neil Flynn, Mano Le Tough, Sara Miller, Lil Dave, and Marini.

The bar is open Thursday to Sunday.
