Galway bands to feature in Patrick’s Day parade

THE 2015 St Patrick’s Day Parade will showcase the wealth of talented and imaginative bands, musicians, and community music groups, at work in the city.

A Facebook group, Galway Patricks Parade Musician, is being set up specifically to organise ‘travelling troubadours’ in the parade. Cúla Búa and Rivers & Crows (pictured above ) are already announced on board, while the initiative is also being supported by Citóg, a gig night that promotes Galway and Irish indie bands. The Galway St Patrick’s Day Parade will also showcase Gamelan na Gaillimhe, who play hand-crafted bronze gongs, metallophones, and drums, specially commissioned from Siswo Telu in Central Java.
