Pre-Christmas concerts for Last Post

Dublin band The Last Post are to make some rare live appearances with three gigs in November and December.

Helmed by Alan Kelly, the band released their album 'Dry Land' earlier this year.

They will release a limited edition 7" single on 13 December featuring 'Something Tells Me (You'd Be Good For Me)' and 'Waiting'.

The Last Post will play with The Chalets and Neosupervital on Saturday 30 November at The Menagerie, Belfast.

The three bands also play the Triskel Arts Centre in Cork on Saturday 14 December and Galway's GPO on Sunday 15 December.

He took his time making it, but there's not a minute wasted here.

If you want a record that's never predictable and the sound of a band taking real risks, gorge yourself here.

A band in thrall to the guitar breaks, up-front bass and keyboard swirls of sections of the Factory Records back catalogue.
