Dublin hip poppers – we feel a new genre coming on! – 8 Ball celebrate the release of their 'Strange Boy' single with Dublin shows in Whelan's (March 25) and Liberty Hall (28).

Favorably compared in this very organ to DJ Shadow and UNKLE, the band are the latest signings to the label run by JJ72's management company, Lakota Records. A self-titled debut album follows later in the spring.
