An upcoming screening of the music documentary Sonic Youth: 30 Years of Daydream Nation at the Irish Film Institute will welcome special guests; the Sonic Youth drummer Steve Shelley and filmmaker Lance Bangs (director of Slint documentary Breadcrumb Trail).

The event will celebrate the 30^th anniversary of the landmark album. Over the course of their career, Sonic Youth created a body of work that arguably did more than any band since The Velvet Underground to explore the potential of rock music in blending the melodic with the abrasive.

The event takes place on Saturday March 2 at 8pm. Tickets cost €16.00 and can be purchased online here, in person at the Box Office, or by calling 01-6793477.
