The monthly Green and Live Sessions continue to bring the best new Irish talent to the Dolan’s stage on Thursday June 26 with a kick-ass line-up featuring Green Lights, More Tiny Giants and Fox Jaw Bounty Hunters.

Dublin-based Green Lights, formed in 2006, have a sound whose foundation is a left-handed guitar that’s always too loud.

Add vocals that range from heartfelt moan to piercing falsetto and throw in some tactless synths and button-bashing, home-programmed loops and a floppy-haired drummer doing his damnedest to hold the whole thing together, and you will start to get the picture.

Dublin four-piece More Tiny Giants will also bring their incendiary country stompy punk to Dolan’s as part of this fourth Green and Live Sessions showcase.

Mixing all that’s great about The Pixies, dEUS and Dawn of the Replicants, More Tiny Giants prove they can stand tall with the best of them.

Their recent ‘Wolves at the Door’ EP is one of the finest releases of the year so far.

Completing the line-up for what promises to be the best Green and Live gig to date is Limerick band Fox Jaw Bounty Hunters.

The local three-piece play straight up, head-bopping rock and roll that bring their pure bred, energy driven music with no nonsense.

These guys blend and create songs influenced from punk to blues, chunky riffs to sublime silence while retaining that solid essence that drives any mind to simply implode yet love it.

Doors open at 8pm and admission is free.

Green and Live is broadcast every Sunday from 8 to 10pm on Limerick Live 95FM.
