Tinariwen play The Academy

The sub-Saharan Clash are on their way to Dublin.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 03 Feb 2009

The band who’ve been described as the sub-Saharan Clash, Tinariwen, pay an October 17 visit to the Dublin Academy. Given their festival headliner status, it’s a rare opportunity to see the Chris Martin, Rolling Stones and Jools Holland-approved outfit do their exotic thing up close.

Tickets for the MCD-promoted gig go on sale this Friday priced €28.50.

Former conscripts in Muammar al-Gaddafi’s army, they’ll have a new album out to coincide.
