Random Canyon Growlers: further gigs, 1-4 Nov. 2012

On 16 August the BIB carried news of a tour later this autumn by the Random Canyon Growlers (USA) - Matt Donovan (bass), Jon Degroot (mandolin, lead guitar, vocals), Matt Herron (fiddle), Brock Benjamin (banjo, vocals), and Jamie Drysdale (guitar, lead vocals) - billed as 'the Rockies’ fastest and finest bluegrass pickers'. This is their first tour in these islands, and after starting in Britain on 10 October they will play their first date here on 29 October.

In mid August they were still looking for gigs in Ireland for the first four days in November. Thanks to G Promo PR, it can now be reported that that part of their schedule has filled out, and the following dates can be added:

Thurs. 1st: the Sky and the Ground, Wexford town
Fri. 2nd: the Belfast Barge, Belfast
Sun. 4th: the Fifty-Six Bar, Arklow, Co. Wicklow; afternoon show, 3.00 p.m.

All the dates currently confirmed are now on the BIB calendar.
