Alright folks, it is back to Dublin, Ireland we go. Once again, we're collaborating with talented filmmaker Luke Brabazon, whomst helped me with a number of recordings while I was in Ireland, and has since created a couple recordings all by himself for the channel! A million thank yous to him, here is another one he made with us; ([ Ссылка ]) the band Alfi, and another with Molly O'Mahony ([ Ссылка ]).

As for Dug the band, i'm familiar primarily with the solo work of the resonator guitar player, Lorkin O'Reilly. He has some smash hits on Spotify under his own name, and when I was filming the Mary Wallopers in Ireland we met up for some food and music. I recorded a couple videos with him, which sadly were all lost when putting my SD card in another camera in a pinch corrupted all the data. That was indeed a shame, but i'm happy we had this opportunity to collaborate again, because Lorkin is a great fellow and a fantastic songwriter.

A quote from filmmaker Luke Brabazon about the location;

"Through secret doors and holes in walls, we were guided from a squatter-run pop-up community centre through to a massive auditorium - a 5-storey abandoned space in the middle of Dublin city.

The space has been a ballroom, a concert venue (The Ramones played there in the 1970's), an ice rink, and finally became a furniture shop before a fire about 5 years ago.

Since this video was filmed in December, the squatters have been kicked out and the building is planned for development as an apartment block."
