| Heather User Info... |  Formed in 1990 by Dublin born Singer/Guitarist and Songwriter Finny McConnell, The Mahones feature Dom "The Bomb” Whelan (Drums/Vocals), Katie McConnell (Accordion/Vocals), Sean Winter (Banjo/ Mandolin/Harmonica), Sean “Riot” Ryan (Bass/Vocals) and have maintained their steadfast drive for the past 20 years which has propelled them to immerge as the seminal Irish punk band of the past two decades. The Black Irish features very special guest appearances by fellow Punk and Rock legends, Rick Barton (Dropkick Murphys/Continental) and Ian Blurton (Change Of Heart/C'Mon). The Mahones are certainly not a one trick pony though. The up-tempo energy of The Black Irish is tempered with well-crafted balladry in songs like “Girl With Galway Eyes” and “Whiskey Under The Bridge” without ever losing momentum. The Mahones have created a defining record that shows the depth of their songwriting and range are their biggest strengths. Never resting from a determined touring schedule, The Mahones have circled the globe and seen their hard work pay off by playing some of the world’s largest festivals, and sharing stages with legends including Billy Bragg, The Dropkick Murphys, The Buzzcocks, Shane MacGowan and The Popes, The Damned, The Tragically Hip, Steve Earle, Sinead O'Connor, Flogging Molly, and Van Morrison. Joining them are Celtic Punks The McGillicuddy's plus guests to be announced. V-Lounge, 3366 Douglas Street. Doors at 9pm.
