Dame District

We have all been waiting for Sam's Barbershop to open it's doors! There will be some celebration today...........

Welcome back Sam and crew, we missed you.

We all need to get behind this! We will come out of this pandemic with nothing to come back for.

Catherine Martin T.D. Tourism Ireland please keep fighting for these small independant venues that are behind one of our biggest exports, music.

Live Venue Collective

“For musicians, small independent venues are the lifeblood of what we do, they are our beginnings, they are where we learn, and where we begin to understand what it means to share a performance with an audience. Many of them are very special to us, run by those who care about the experience they create for both audience and performer, they have come to mean more than the sum of their parts and they provide much more than entertainment, they are vital conduits of community and creativity, places to connect and discover, we would (all of us, I believe) be lost without them.” - Maria Doyle Kennedy + Kieran Kennedy
