Deep Fried Funk return for February G Decks

After the sell-out success of the first ever G Decks back in December, Deep Fried Funk will return to the iconic showcase on Saturday 20th February.

The legendary Derry funksters, ably supported by three local DJs, will return to the Cellar Bar in Draperstown to build upon the legend.

Introduced to give young DJs in the area a solid platform to showcase their talents, the second round of G Decks will see another round of innovative and confident musicians at the top of their game.

Doors are at 9pm and admission is £5 before 10pm/£6 afterwards.

IMRO Showcase returns to G Sessions

For the second year running, the IMRO Showcase will return to the Cellar Bar in Draperstown in association with the Glasgowbury G Sessions.

The local showcase will take place on Saturday 17th April.

First hosted in 1992, Ireland’s most established new band showcase has provided a live platform to scores of up and coming Irish acts.

Last year it was the likes of Skruff, Here Comes The Landed Gentry and Furlo who took the mantle to showcase the best the local area had to offer.

IMRO are now inviting bands and solo artists across all genres of music to apply for a place on the IMRO Showcase Tour 2010.

The acts for this year’s G Sessions showcase are still to be confirmed, so check back soon for details.
