The Cobalt Cafe in Dublin will host another Nighthawks gig on Saturday 17th April, with performances from The Flaws, The Citizen, and Enda Reilly,
The indie-rock quarter the Flaws were nominated for a Choice Music Award back in 2008 for their debut album, Achieving Vagueness. They are currently wrapping up their second album, due out this summer.
The Citizen is also known as Ken O'Duffy, who recorded three albums with Saville before playing solo gigs in the UK under the moniker 'The Citizen'. He's starting work on his first solo album and has chosen this Nighthawks gig as his first ever Irish performance.
Folk singer-songwriter Enda Reilly released his debut album, Oxygen 21, in 2008. Writing most of his songs in Irish, he is frequently played on RTE Raidió na Gaeltachta.
This eclectic group will also be joined by sketch comedy trio Foil Arms and Hog and stand-up comedian and Comedy Dublin winner, James Marsh, as well as 2007 Electric Picnic Slam Poetry winner, Stephen Murray.
The show will also be celebrating the launch of the Nighthawks EP for Oxfam, which will be released earlier that Saturday at 2pm at the Oxfam shop on Parilament Street.
Doors for the show open at 7:45 pm, with no admissions after 8:10 pm. The show is expected to go until 11pm.
Tickets go on sale from City Discs in Temple Bar on Saturday 3 April. They're €12.50 and expected to sell out fast.
