TAKING THE STAGE TONIGHT
Neff Fean: 8:30 PM
In this “salve for ears that ache for flavours new” (Irish Music Magazine), Eoghan Neff’s “jaw-dropping extreme fiddling” (Folk World) and “astounding mastery of live looping” (Folk Radio UK) is spectacularly interwoven with Ray Fean’s “fiery drumming” (Hot Press) creating “astonishing, black magic music of un-imagined sounds” (The Longford Leader).
Check them out here:eoghanneff.com/rayfean
 MegaTRAD: 10 PM
With a sound best described as an exalted manifestation of Irish Trad, megaTRAD mold their cultural musical heritage with diverse individual musical experiences, bolstered by the contemporary nuances of stomp, bass, and pedal FX boards. The outcome is an innovative and exhilarating auditory journey, affectionately termed “Tradscendental” by their enthusiastic fanbase. With an improvisatory approach to their performances, every megaTRAD show will be completely unique and never to be heard in that particular arrangement again, guaranteeing each audience authenticity and a once in a lifetime auditory experience.
This year megaTRAD are releasing their debut album “It begins with a…” and invite you to join them on a musical journey where tradition meets innovation, and where every note is an adventure! Get ready to be immersed in the contemporary, rich, and lively sounds of 21st Century Irish traditional music – megaTRAD style!

THE 3RD ROOM – 31/01/26

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT

 Ennis Eccentric Music Society 
is very proud to present in association
with
EIRE ÓG

Forged deep in Ireland’s underground, ERIC MOORE operates far from the surface — raw, uncompromising, and built for the late hours.
Known for relentless vinyl-only sessions and a no-frills approach, he remains a vital force in a scene that survives by staying defiant.

With releases on Red Section, Hypnotic Frames, and his own Arcane imprint — soon to resurface — Moore’s sound is physical and unpredictable.
Expect tribal pressure, Detroit machine funk, Chicago grit, electro pulses, ghetto-tech heat, and moments that cut without warning.

SOULJACKER completes the signal —Expect the unusual. He mixes funk-rock house twisted for dark rooms and low ceilings mixed with live percussion .

No gloss. No hype. No filters. 

Just drive!

These 2 DJs sets complement each other very well!

Last seen @ E.E.M.S Summer Party Vol 2
