Yes you beautiful sexy avocado rocks it is Monday and we start our introduction to what's on show for avocado rocks on Friday 15th November.
Oh I'm so excited.
We are very proud to welcome, back to our stage Dundalk's very own Caoimhin Brady, a young singer/songwriter whose honest, deeply personal songwriting shows a maturity that is well beyond his age. His style is acoustic/indie folk and his passion is composing and performing his own material, with songs about the experiences and emotions that fill his head, the way he see things in the world today, and use those experiences to try and create a safe place where other lonely souls can feel at home and hopefully find something in the music and lyrics to help move past their fears, doubts and loss and feel ok again.....

We are thrilled to have Midweek Crisis return to Avocado Rocks this FRIDAY 18TH OCTOBER at Toales. 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Midweek Crisis are a 4 piece indie / rock / punk band of grown up teenagers from the borderlands of Dundalk Ireland, formed in 2019 through a shared love of diverse music. Their sound is a unique blend of their 80s and 90s influences and post-punk sensibilities, telling stories of failure and triumph with a big heart and a healthy lack of respect for the absurdity of our times. The band have played live shows in venues in Dundalk and Dublin, Ireland including The Spirit Store and Fibber Magees, recorded a series of promotional videos with The Lockup Studio Dundalk and released a first batch of singles. The band have recorded the songs for their debut album, with their latest single release in August 'Dundalk Deadbeat which is available on all platforms.
Midweek Crisis are Gus Cullen, Gerry Faulkner, Andrew Clarke and Elliott Lusk.

Check out their latest single;
