'Trev Dietz's Workman's Club' appears above entrance of venue in special tribute

The Workman’s Club have paid tribute to the late Trevor Dietz by including his name on the signage outside the venue.

The sign above the door of the popular music venue that Trevor co-founded now reads, "Trev Dietz’s Workman’s Club."

The tribute follows a statement the venue made following his death on June 7 that described him as an "integral part in the rise and global success of Fontaines D.C." and as a "champion of alternative music."

The venue revealed the sign change in a post on their social media pages on Friday, as a series of glowing eulogies flooded into the comments.

“This is beautiful. Still remember him showing me around before it opened,” one user wrote. “Beautiful. Trev was Workman’s and Workman’s was Trev,” said another.

Trevor was the booker and promoter at the Workman’s Club since it opened in 2010.

It was here that he gave Fontaines D.C. some of their first gigs, before transitioning from promoter to manager, guiding them to international success.

“Trevor was beside us from the beginning of our journey as a band; we have never known Fontaines D.C. without him, the sixth member of the band,” Fontaines D.C said in a social media post after his death.

“He cared passionately for us and for what was fair and right in the wider world. He was fearless in his beliefs. We will always miss him.”
