What Whelan’s is to the east, Roisin Dubh is to the west. A chief hang-out for musicians in Connacht, it has become one of Ireland’s best-loved venues over the course of two decades. Showing the esteem in which it continues to be held, earlier this year, the Roisin Dubh picked up IMRO’s Live Music Venue of the Year Award for Connacht. With the indomitable Gugai doing the booking – a man with great taste and his finger on the pulse – you only get the cream of the crop gracing the Roisin Dubh stage. From rising Irish bands to A-list international artists like Ryan Adams and Ed Sheeran, they embrace acts at every level, so long as they have the chops to put on a terrific show.
