MONICA HARKIN AND ELDER ROCHE






Saturday 28th november8pm, Adm E 8
MONICA HARKIN

Not quite jazz, not quite folk, not quite the blues - the music is blend of all three with some other musical surprises thrown in for good measure! Monica and company, who comprise of Michael on piano, Ciaran on double bass, Dave on guitar, Aaron on drums and Oisin on the viola have received a really great reaction to the Dublin audiences that they're played to. The songs have strong melodic lines beautifully suspended by the musical arrangements of the band. There's album's worth of songs which the band plan to record before the end of the year, for a sample of what they sound like check out www.myspace.com/monicaharkin


ELDER ROCHE- IRISH TROUBADOUR

Embracing the grittier side of life and paving the way with slapping grooves and roots overtones, ELDER’s theatrical story telling has likened him to Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave and David Bowie.
The fabulous Single “DIAMOND”- taken from his forthcoming studio album “NOBODY KNOWS” has already landed ELDER ROCHE with a serious amount of support and has lead to sold out shows in Dublin with the onset of a Nationwide tour. This Dublin based musical poet has shared the stage with many of Ireland’s well known’s- Paddy Casey, Damien Rice, Juno Falls, Juliet Turner and Damien Dempsey. www.myspace.com/elderroche
