KANYE WEST’S ruminations on gold diggers has become part of the popular conscience, but the phrase is also the name of an Athenry folk quintet.
The Gold Diggers - Pat Naughton, Harry Monson, Cha Taylor, Aidan Archer, and Colga Coye – play Monroe’s Backstage Bar this Sunday at 11pm, where they will be joined by The Amazing Apples’ violinist Eanna Fahy.
The band play bluegrass and Americana, with harmonies a speciality. As well as traditional instruments like guitar, double bass, and drums, they also play the ukulele and the Peruvian charanga.
