One of a multitude of shows cancelled over the Christmas due to the adverse weather conditions (or, y'know, the snow), drummer Nicky Bailey and his band Extreme Rhythm's percussion spectacular is now set for this Saturday, January 8, at the Wexford Opera House.

Primal will be a full-on, testosterone-fuelled percussive performance incorporating some maniacal choreography.

Bailey is best known for his work with Riverdance and Celtic Woman, but his unique style of writing for percussion now sees him pushing the boundaries between Celtic, Japanese, and African percussion. He plans to develop the show and go on tour later in the year.
