Join Victoria's own Hounds of Cuchulain for an evening of celtic chaos, with songs made famous by the legendary 80s London-Irish celtic rock band the Pogues! Sets include many Shane MacGowan classics such as "Sick Bed of Cuchulain", "Rainy Night in Soho", "If I Should Fall From Grace With God", and many traditional tunes that the Pogues made their own.
The Hounds of Cuchulain lineup includes a host of traditional celtic instruments to recreate the powerful and sometimes even orchestral sound of the Pogues: accordion, fiddles, whistle, Irish tenor banjo, mandolin, harp - and of course, drums and bass!
The evening will feature performances by Irish dancers, cash bar and an open dance floor! PG13 show.

ABOUT THE BAND:
The Hounds of Cuchulain are a high-energy celtic folk band from Victoria BC who perform a wide selection of Irish, Scottish, English, and original folk songs in the Celtic tradition: rowdy pub songs, tender ballads, spirited dance tunes, and ancient airs played with an authenticity and verve which bring the tradition to life for any occasion.
Combining powerful vocals, driving guitar, inventive harmonies on the fiddle, hard-hitting Irish banjo, sprightly leads on the whistle and mandolin, the powerful heartbeat of the bodhran, and the ancient ambience of the Irish lever harp, the Hounds' textured and energetic arrangements invite listeners to be swept up in the stories, to sing along and stamp their feet - true to the tradition of folk!
The group is led by seasoned performer and composer Wolf Edwards on lead vocal and guitar, and joined by Madeleine Townley on vocals, Irish harp, and tin whistle, Briana Kennedy on fiddle, Dexter Simpson on Irish tenor banjo, Ben Garrison on mandolin, Jeff Feltmate on bodhran and second fiddle, and Theo Waite on double bass. Joining the Hounds for the Pogues Tribute are Craig Frew on accordion and Caleb Belknap-Crippen on drums!
The Hounds of Cuchulain have reached their two year anniversary! Since their inception they have performed over 200 shows at major folk festivals, theaters, pubs, community events, private functions and more. The band has released two full length albums, and just finished recording an album of originals!
