Toasted Heretic re-unite at Galway Arts Festival

They were denounced as blasphemous when they first emerged, but still managed to release four albums and have a Top 10 hit. Frontman Julian Gough even had a novel, Juno & Juliet, published worldwide.
Toasted Heretic will play at the Radisson SAS Hotel Entertainment Centre on Saturday July 23, and will be celebrating the release of double A-side, ‘LSD (Isn't What It Used To Be)’ / ‘Drown The Browns’.
Other highlights at the festival include acerbic British songwriter Luke Haines, who plays the Cuba venue on July 21, and the legendary Marianne Faithfull, who will be appearing at the Radisson SAS Hotel Entertainment Centre on July 24.
Eccentric Ulsterman Duke Special (pictured above) will provide something a bit different, when he appears at Cuba on July 16.
Other acts appearing at the festival include: Amos Garrett, At First Light, Breda & Cora Smyth, Bronagh Gallagher & Maria Doyle Kennedy, Cane 141, Damien Dempsey, Django Bates' Human Chain, Jim White, Josh Rouse, June Tabor, Lucky Dube, Mavis Staples, Michelle Shocked & The Mighty Sound, Pauline Scanlon & Donogh Hennessy, Richie Havens, Roesy, Sharon Shannon, Frankie Gavin, Michael McGoldrick, Jim Murray, The Proclaimers, Valerie Smith & Liberty Pike, Yann Tiersen and Yungchen Lhamo.
