City of a Thousand Bands-One City One Book

As part of Dublin: One City One Book, The Church is hosting 'The City of a Thousand Bands – ‘80s Dublin On Mature Recollection.'

In attendance on the night will be: Niall Stokes (Hot Press),  Dave Fanning (RTÉ 2FM), Eamon Carr (Horslips), Leslie Dowdall (In Tua Nua) and Jerry Fish.

They say that rock music thrives in the face of social adversity so it’s no wonder 1980’s Dublin was seen as the perfect breeding ground. Four leading Dublin lights – some of whom feature in Roddy Doyle’s hilarious debut – will offer fresh perspectives on the time, the place, the music and the book.

Admission is free, but limited capacity.
