Oasis' heirs apparent, Brother have just announced plans to play their first ever Irish show. Labelling their sound as "Gritpop" (which basically means they sound exactly like old Britpop), the Slough-based band have been whipping up a minor storm in the British music press recently.

Expect plenty of snarl, attitude and perhaps a few decent anthems when they arrive in Dublin on Tuesday April 19.

Tickets are priced at €13.50 inclusive of booking fee and are on sale now from Ticketmaster outlets nationwide and [link]www.ticketmaster.ie[/link].
