Arrested Development for Crawdaddy

At this stage details of the band line-up remain unconfirmed but hopefully there'll be more representation in the MC department, with Speech holding up their spectacular sold-out show at The Village in January.

And in other coming attractions at the Harcourt Street venue, the Coldspoon Conspiracy play a headlining gig with special guests Jeff Martin and Torgas Valley Reds on July 16. Tickets are priced most reasonably at €8 and can only be purchased on the door.

Prior to that, the ten-piece force that is Ozomatli play Crawdaddy on July 6 and 7. With the first date now completely sold out you can still purchase tickets for the July 7 date (from €14.50 standing). If you're unfamiliar with their Afro-Latin-infused, politically-conscious hip hop, then be sure to log your funky ass onto www.ozomatli.com where you can sample their music for free.
