Lloyd Cole confirms Whelan's brace

Lloyd Cole makes what at this stage is his annual visit to Dublin for May 11 and 12 shows in Whelan’s.
Prior to that comes the release of Cleaning Out The Ashtrays, the result of a rummage through all the dusty boxes of cassettes, DAT tapes and CDs in his Easthampton hideaway.
The 59 nuggets from the Cole vaults include alternate versions, rare B-sides and Lou Reed, Marc Bolan and Leonard Cohen covers.
Tickets go on sale on Friday February 6 priced €23.
