Competition Closed: Join us for Spring Break

We’re huge fans of the 80s supergroup Spring Break at Culch.ie. Playing the biggest American 80s hits even better than the originals, every single time we’ve been to see them has been an amazing night.

Yes, that is me getting into the action (thanks to @cloudsteph for the awesome hair). That’s one of the most fun things about a Spring Break gig. Everyone embraces the cheese and leaves their irony and cynicism at home. Dressed up with big hair, colourful clothes, state trooper sunglasses and as more hair product than John Travolta’s career has ever seen, the loyal crowd loves this band.

And then there’s the music. Spring Break is a seven-piece band that never fails to set the night alight. Their diverse line up of live drums, bass, guitar, two keyboards and five different lead singers provide these multi-instrumentalists the scope to move through all the hits of the era with absolute ease. From the relaxed rock of Bruce Springsteen and John Cougar Mellencamp; to the beckoning ballads of Foreigner and Peter Cetera; to the smooth soul of Lionel Richie and Hall & Oates; to the polished pop of Don Henley and Huey Lewis; to the dance floor classics of the Pointer Sisters and Toto – no musical style is beyond them. I’ve caught them a number of times and I can honestly say that some of their covers are even better than the real thing.

Half of Culch.ie will be catching the band this Saturday, Paddy’s Night, in the Button Factory, Templebar. Why don’t you join us?
