NCH Landmarks: The Jimmy Cake - Brains

NCH Landmarks: The Jimmy Cake - Brains

About the event

The Jimmy Cake began life in Dublin in the late 1990s as das Madman, blazing briefly and chaotically, to burn out and reform at the turn of the century as a nine-piece band, blending accordion, clarinet, saxophone, glockenspiel, trumpet and DIY percussion around the core of guitars, bass and drums.

Brains was released on their own Pilatus label in 2001. In five tracks, they announced something hitherto unheard: at times raw, fearless and experimental, in other places fragile and intimate, moving restlessly between folk, post-rock grandeur and something far more elusive.

Tickets €22, €30, €37.50
