Waterford band(its) Ghetto Amaretto have decided upon a launch date & venue for their EP, For Every Hiim, Her & They.

Well it finally happened.
Ruairi shrieked and shrieked until he couldn’t shrieks no more.
As a result, his voice was gone
and the pod was in danger of being lost forever!

Vantastival, eh?
What’s that then?
It’s a new music festival? In Louth?
You’re having a laugh.
No! Srsly! Take a look at who’s playing.
Kila, Mick Flannery, FRED, Sounds Of System Breakdown
Ok
you’re not bullshitting me.
