We reckon two-tone will be in this winter – beloved ska-types The Selecter are releasing latest album Subculture on June 15 and they intend to come to Irish shores to promote it before 2015 is out.
You can catch The Selecter, including front woman Pauline Black, original co-frontman Gaps Hendrickson and the talented band that includes Neil Pyzer and Will Crewdson, in The Academy, Dublin, on December 11.
Tickets for this over-18s gig are €22.50.
Then on December 28, the barmy Bad Manners (how can you not respect an act with a singer called Buster Bloodvessel?) play the very same venue. Special guest on the night is Max Splodge and tickets are €25.
All tickets go on sale Friday morning.
