With founder members Fearghal McKee and Colm Hassett deciding to make their reunion permanent, Whipping Boy embark on an extensive tour that takes them to Vantastival, Dunany (May 1); Dolan’s, Limerick (13); Roisin Dubh, Galway (20); Spirit Store, Dundalk (21); Kavangh’s, Portlaoise (26); Cyprus Avenue, Cork (29); The Thatch, Tullamore (June 3); The Stables, Mullingar (4); The Forum, Waterford (5); and SET Theatre, Kilkenny (18).
The band, who seemed destined for greatness in the ‘90s but inexplicably fell at the last hurdle, will also be announcing another batch of festival dates shortly.
