The Bros. Landreth at Whelan's

What to Expect

The Bros. Landreth are Joey and Dave Landreth, a Manitoba-born duo who have been quietly building a reputation on the international roots circuit for the better part of a decade. Their sound sits somewhere between Americana and classic country-influenced folk: clean guitar work, close harmonies, and songs that tend to reward proper listening.

Whelan’s on Wexford Street is one of the best mid-sized live music rooms in Dublin, with a capacity that keeps things close and a bar that does the job. It is the right venue for a show like this - the intimacy suits the music, and the crowd that turns up for this kind of night tends to be engaged rather than restless.

If you caught them on a previous tour, you already know the drill. If this is your first time, they are the kind of act that tends to convert people on the night.

Good to Know

• Doors open from 7pm, show starts 8pm
• Standing venue with some raised areas at the back
• Licensed bar throughout the show
• €27.50 per ticket, available via Whelan’s website
• Wexford Street is busy on Thursday nights; arrive a little before doors if you want space at the front
