BRITISH PUNK, funk, indie, and electro band Does It Offend You, Yeah? will launch The Alternative Disco, the new clubnight at Cuba*, Eyre Square, this Saturday at 11pm.
The new night will be held on Saturdays and will feature a mash up of indie and electro from resident DJs from Button Factory’s Transmission and the Trashed DJs from Andrews Lane Theatre.
Does It Offend You, Yeah? from Reading are James Rushent (vocals, bass ), Dan Coop (synths ), Rob Bloomfield (drums ), and Morgan Quaintance (live guitar and synth ). They describe their sound as “an arcade machine that has been thrown into a lake”.
The group are known for their raucous live shows, which often end in stage diving and broken instruments. They have been compared to Daft Punk and Muse, and this year they completed a sold-out US tour with their album You Have No Idea What You’re Getting Yourself Into.
Upcoming events include Utah Saints DJ set on December 6 and The Whip on December 20.
Admission is €10 with free entry for Cuba* members before midnight. For more information contact 091 - 565991 or email [email protected].
