A FRIDAY NIGHT OF HOT IRISH JIGS AND REELS, FOOT STOMPERS AND LYRICAL FOLK!
Fresh from Heathrow BENJAMING’S CLAN head straight to Kingston for their first ever gig on these shores. Formed in 2013 in the Czech Republic Benjaming’s Clan began life as a straight up Celtic-Punk band but in latter years have become more folk orientated. Their songs still pack a punk rock punch and are characteristically ironic, emotional and filled with enormous positive energy. Expect bagpipes, banjo, trumpet, mandolin, accordion, tin whistle, violin, keyboards and of course drums, guitar and acoustic bass.
