Coming on the heels of a single this year called ‘Hidden Hands’, and the promise of a new album.
The Redneck Manifesto are to play their first Dublin gig in six years on January 24th 2025, in Whelan’s.
Why Whelan’s? Well it’s a big part of the band’s legacy, musically and personally as they say “their connection to this venue goes back almost 25 years, from being audience members, going on dates with future wives and a member almost dying from electrocution on stage.”
T.R.M, live are now a three-piece of founding members Niall Byrne (no relation to me), Richie Egan and Matthew Bolger.
Live the band, will be joined on stage by Paul Kenny on drums, Dek Hynes & Thor Rasmussen on synth and percussion, a lineup that debuted at this year’s Beyond the Pale Festival.
The new album will be released in Spring of 2025 on Ten Spot Records.
Support on the night will come from the Dublin based composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist R.F Chaney.
Tickets are €20 including booking fee from whelanslive.com.
