Get ready for a great rock’n'roll/blues extravaganza at the end of this month! Beatnik Soul are organising the Savage Kick Fest which will be held (mainly) in Sandinos‘ back bar. Dan and Conal managed to get together an excellent line up with both local and international artists.
It actually starts on Wednesday 23rd September with a free party in Sandinos featuring Casa De Chihuahua from New York.
The official opening on the Thursday night will be in St Columb’s Hall. Kicking off celebrations are Here Comes the Landed Gentry (Derry), The Jim Jones Revue (London), Joe Gideon & the Shark (London), and a DJ set by Andy McGibbon (The Bonnevilles/Motor Sounds Records).
Friday night we’re in Sandinos’ back bar with Bob Log III (Tucson, AZ), Hillstomp (Portland, OR), Teknopeasant (Donegal), and the Beatnik Soul DJs.
On Saturday we’ll see Balkan Alien Sound (Derry), Paul-Ronney Angel (The Urban Voodoo Machine) (London), and The Mighty Stef (Dublin).
And finishing off on Sunday night we get to see the brilliant T-Model Ford (Forest, MS), The Bonnevilles (Lurgan), Jonny Black’s new bluegrass outfit Skip Moses (Belfast), and more rocking tunes spun by the Beatnik Soul DJs.
