JINX LENNON, AKA The Free State Nova, the agit-folk, performance poet, singer-songwriter plays upstairs in the Róisín Dubh on Friday November 15 at 9pm.
Jinx will be releasing a new single, ‘Shop Thy Neighbour’, about dole informants. He will also perform a piece called ‘North Louth Moustache Sunday Roast’ for RTÉ Radio 1’s Arena on Friday November 22. He has also collaborated with musician Bill Drummond (The KLF ) and Liverpool band Clinic.
Bidolito magazine said about the Louth singer-songwriter: “Lennon takes his audience on an emotional rollercoaster giving beat orations...that can make them break out into sporadic laughter and fall into deep reflective angst in the space of one verse over and over again.”
Support is from Galway based folk singer-songwriter Fia Rua. Tickets are from www.roisindubh.net
