NYC Ska Legends Embark on 30th Anniversary Tour!
plus guests
Sunday 20th April | Doors 8pm | Tickets €12.50
Thirty years ago a bunch of upstarts ignited a spark on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. A spark that fired the imagination of the American music scene, causing a global conflagration. That music was Ska and the band was THE TOASTERS. The 2-Tone sound re-created in their own image by this unruly group of ruffians synthesized the classic 70’s British sound with east side Punk and rock and is now regarded as being the precursor to the Third Wave of Ska. The embers of the legacy bequeathed by The Specials, The Selecter, The Beat and Madness were rekindled and the Toasters hit the road. Hard.
Five-thousand some gigs later the sparks are still flying and the band is ready to pick up the cudgels once again for their 2011 30th Anniversary tour. Some of the faces may be different but, of course, the song remains the same. The distinctive Toasters sound has recently been hallmarked as one of CBGB’s 20 core bands (Clear Channel Radio) and nothing could make the band prouder than being ranked up there with personal heroes The Ramones.
To mark the occasion of the grand 30th, there will be a special brew Toasters 30th IPA flowing from the vats of SKA BREWING COMPANY in Boulder, Colorado. Following this up with a shot of Jaegermeister they will be ready to roll the Bandwagon across the USA from coast to coast
There has been much acclaim from Billboard, the New York Times, Alternative Press, MTV and many others but the band is more interested in playing for the fans. To that end the group has undertaken missions across the globe, playing from Siberia to Istanbul and back, laying down the tracks for others to follow. According to lead singer Bucket, nothing can eclipse the vibes of a sweaty packed-out club with the audience in your face and the bit between the teeth.
It’s important not to forget where you came from. Lots of bands do that but not the Toasters!

AMERICAN INTERIOR: IN CONVERSATION & PERFORMANCE
“If there were ever a map guiding … Gruff Rhys’ musical path, he tossed it overboard long ago.” – Pitchfork
Chairperson: Tony Clayton-Lea
Gruff Rhys is one of the most singular figures in pop. Since forming rock-group Super Furry Animals in 1993 he’s forged his own path, touring with a 40-foot inflatable bear, releasing concept albums with electro-pop outfit Neon Neon and collaborating with everyone from Danger Mouse to the National Theatre of Wales.
His latest project, American Interior, is typically ambitious and idiosyncratic. In 1792, Rhys’ ancestor John Evans walked into the Allegheny Mountains in search of a lost tribe of Welsh-speaking Native Americans. It was the start of an epic series of adventures involving alligator-wrestling, bison-hunting and the annexation of North Dakota. Two centuries later, Rhys set out to follow in Evans’ footsteps. Joined by Kilph Scurlock, guitarist with The Flaming Lips, he travelled through the Mid-West, sailing up the Missouri River and playing gigs on native reservations as he went. The result is an album, a book, a documentary, and even an app. But what became of Evans? Did he find the tribe he was looking for?
Join Gruff Rhys as he talks about his own – and Evans’ – adventures and performs an acoustic set of songs from the album. Featuring clips from his documentary, American Interior, this unique multimedia event is not to be missed.
