  • Teenage Fanclub w/ Malojian @ CQAF Marquee, Belfast

    May 3, 2019 - By Ross Thompson

    By anybody’s yardstick, guitar rock pioneers Teenage Fanclub have enjoyed an incredible career: to date, they have notched up thirty years of crafting albums of the loveliest melodic major key songwriting this side of California, not to mention supporting the revered likes of Nirvana, Radiohead and Frank Black along the way. No small feat, and even if you may not hear their name mentioned as often and as freely as it should be, chat to any random music fan and they will no doubt wax rhapsodic about the sonic wonders of Grand Prix or Songs From Northern Britain.  The fact that Death Cab…

  • The Specials @ The Olympia, Dublin

    April 16, 2019 - By Conor Callanan

    With The Specials’ last tour here being November 2014, it should have come as no surprise that they sold out all three nights in an instant.
