Isle of Wight rockers Coach Party will perform tonight, Thursday, May 30 at Róisín Dubh, after their autumn gig in Galway last year was cancelled.
All original tickets are valid for this evening’s performance at 8pm, with support from Bees and Sawdust.
Coach Party all grew up on the Isle of Wight, and eventually crossed paths as avid music fans - working in venues, playing together and meeting at the same gigs. Coach Party eventually formed after lead singer and bassist Jess Eastwood and guitarist Steph Norris decided to start playing music together; quickly realising that there was something special about the pair’s songwriting and bond, guitarist Joe Perry and drummer Page joined the ranks.
Musically, Coach Party are inspired by a broad palate of artists, but always find themselves drawn back to Nirvana, Sonic Youth and The Strokes, and contemporary artists like Wolf Alice, The Big Moon and Tame Impala. Ultimately though, Coach Party’s primary drive to write and perform music comes from “the often entertaining struggle of real life".
The band still live and work on the Isle of Wight, and describe life on the island as going “through pretty distinct phases of being a great, and a really frustrating place to live".
Rescheduled from Nov 30, 2023 to May 30, 2024. All original tickets valid.
