Benefits Culture

By No More Workhorse on May 29, 2012 • ( 2 Comments )

Just as nothing ruins a gig like a lousy venue (ladies and gentlemen I present the Troxy in Limehouse), a really great venue adds massively to the experience. Sadly, these are exactly […]

Lana Del Rey & Bobby Womack

By No More Workhorse on May 29, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

We love Lana here at the Workhorse, from the top of her freaky head to the bottom of her freaky toes! One of our most viewed posts is about her so we […]

Movies – 25-5-12 – Moonrise Kingdom

By No More Workhorse on May 25, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

You probably already know if you’re going to like Moonrise Kingdom. Wes Anderson is one of those directors where you know what you’re going to get. Still, he’s just about the only […]

Soul Picnic – Dublin City Soul Festival

By No More Workhorse on May 24, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

It’s a bit of a festival face-off this weekend, with Link going up against the Soul Picnic (could they not have found another weekend?). Oddly enough, this event has lasted six years, […]

Love: live music day

By No More Workhorse on May 23, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Love: live music day is the 21st of June, and more than 200 acts will play live across the country. It’s a mixed bag of events, which doesn’t have any particular big […]

Handsome Spoons

By No More Workhorse on May 23, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

What do you get if you cross one spoon of the Handsome Furs and one spoon of Spoon (sorry, couldn’t resist) Well, the answer is obviously the Divine Fits, the new band […]

Link Culturefest – Smithfield – May 25th -27th

By No More Workhorse on May 22, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

What the hell is Link Culturefest, I hear you scream from the top of your lungs? Well, according to the web site, it’s… “A weekend festival in Dublin that aims to showcase […]

Gig Guide – 21-05-12

By No More Workhorse on May 21, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

The new addition is top of the list. Not sure when this one was announced, but it slipped through my net anyway! Howe Gelb is back in Whelans, for another low key […]

All Ages Show – J. Johannsson, Hauscha, D. O’Halloran – Sugar Club

By No More Workhorse on May 20, 2012 • ( 3 Comments )

Seeing as the night show sold out, the promoters have taken the unusual approach of putting on an afternoon for the Monsters of Ambient show today in the Sugar Club. Now you’ve […]

Kindness – House (plus an instructional video)

By No More Workhorse on May 18, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

First, the track itself which is an excellent slow jam, followed by Adam Bainbridge’s instructional video in which he teaches the young Ramon how to make the track itself… replete with dancing at […]

By No More Workhorse on May 18, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

This week sees the release of the Raid, the heir apparent to the title of best action movie, that has the critics wetting themselves to prove how butch they are, and that […]

100 IDS

http://vimeo.com/35671853

We don’t talk a whole lot about design on NMWH but this is a very cool and creative take on the medium of business cards by designer Silvio Teixeira. (Also, the music is by tUnE-yArDs so that’s always good with us).

IMMA – Photography from the Bank of America Collection

By No More Workhorse on May 17, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

I went to this exhibition months ago, and always meant to mention it as it blew me away, but for whatever reason I never got around to it. Now I see that […]

50 Foot Wave – Free Music (But you should really pay!)

By No More Workhorse on May 16, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Miss Hersh is giving it away again! I’ve spent most of my lunch time listening to her new work, and it seems top drawer! There’s a very simple button on the top […]

Efterklang play two shows in Ireland, in collaboration wtih the Major Lift Orchestra (no, me neither) in Dublin and Cork. The one in Dublin is in Meeting House Square on the 14th […]

Word on the Street – Literature Night, Dublin- 16-05-12

By No More Workhorse on May 14, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

What are you doing on Wednesday night? Spacing? Watching the box? No, you’re not, you’ll be out on the streets of Dublin hearing the great and the good reading! Well, maybe some […]

Movies – 11-05-12

By No More Workhorse on May 11, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

So what’s new at the movies this week? I think it’s another week to explore the sights and sounds of the city, without actually going to the cinema. There’s still probably some […]

Free Movies in the Rain – Temple Bar – Meeting House Square

By No More Workhorse on May 11, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

I went to this once before, to see ‘Eternal sunshine…’ and you guessed it! It was a wet night in Dublin, and a bit miserable, but if you come prepared for the […]

Andre 3000 dressed as Jimmy Hendrix

By No More Workhorse on May 10, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

Some stories are just too odd. Yes, that’s right, if you’re from Dublin or Wicklow, watch out for Andre doing a Jimmy impersonation! Andre is starring in biopic of Jimmy, which is […]

New My Bloody Valentine Music

By No More Workhorse on May 9, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

If you’re too lazy to read the full interview with Kevin Shields here, I’ll give you a brief summary. He’s on song 8 of the new album There’s 9 songs on it […]

The Walkmen – Vicar Street – 29th Oct

By No More Workhorse on May 9, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

If the Walkmen’s 2009 album was called Lisbon, what should the new album be called? Stability? Sadly, it’s called Heaven, but I guess they have their reasons. They’re back in town on […]

The Bad Plus – NCH, Dublin – Rite of Spring

By No More Workhorse on May 8, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

The main reason I know The Bad Plus is due to their cover versions of indie classics such as Velouria by the Pixies and Karma Police by Radiohead. They’ve put their own […]

Adam Yauch – RIP

By No More Workhorse on May 5, 2012 • ( 3 Comments )

I think everyone was caught a little on the hop by this. While it was known that he had cancer for many years, he described it himself as ‘very treatable’ and I […]

Friday Free Play(s): Billy Bragg & Wilco – Eisler on the Go / California Stars

By No More Workhorse on May 4, 2012 • ( Leave a comment )

With the recent New Multitudes record coming out (Jay Farrar and co.) and mining the writings of Woody Guthrie, it reminded me of another lovely set of songs based on Woody’s words, Mermaid Avenue, […]
