One of my bands of the year, And So I Watch You From Afar are headlining the Ulster Hall in Belfast tonight but what you may not know yet is that they are also playing a secret show in the basement of Thomas House in Dublin this Sunday.
It kicks off at 7pm with The Parks also playing but capacity is limited and it’s guestlist-first and then first come first served. I’m offering two names on the guestlist +1 for the gig. Mail me on [email protected] with your name and number and I’ll notify the winners on Sunday via text.
MP3: And So I Watch You From Afar – Clench Fists, Grit Teeth… GO!
