Drawing inspiration from Ireland’s growing experimental folk scene, their original songs could sit proudly alongside a thoughtfully curated collection of folk standards.

Shark School – The Thomas House – June 6 – Doors 8:00 PM
Shark School are a female-fronted abstract garage band based in Galway City, described as a sonic assault with more bite than a Great White’s dentures!
