A Handsome little Musical Line-up

We are happy to announce the musical treats on the night of the Handsome Little Fox Picnic.
CASTLE VARIATIONS - SOLAR QUARTET
REPLETE
THE KILO 1977



CASTLE VARIATIONS: This Is what happens when someone takes the idea of having a jam with a few musicians and making It a very special creative experience for both the musician and the listener. The Castle Variations have already created a unique environment In Killaghy Castle In Co. Kilkenny bringing musicians from all disciplines together to write, create and record music on the spot. The results are always original, fun and In a load of ways cosy. Whats great Is they are like a big Lucky Bag, you never know what you might get? Some Funk, Jazz, Post Rock, Progressive Decepticon Soundwave Spoon Tunes,who knows? What you always get Is a group of extremely talented musicians who can construct a non pretentious sound that seems to be in tune with the environment around them. Perfect night time picnic music. 


REPLETE is the music of very talented Peter Lawlor. Having the pleasure of seeing Repletes set at this years Electric picnic was a definite highlight and we feel over the moon to have him play at our little picnic. His music can be described as Ambient chill out or pulsy electronica with delicate harmonic undertones but to us Its just lovely. Following the same music back roads as Moths and James Blake  Its only a matter of time before Replete Is on the highway hitch hiking his way to the top of the musical food chain. Make sure you see him now so you can say In a few years " Awwww I was there at the very beginning when he started out, I'm not sure about the new sound and calling himself the 'Artist Formally known as Replete but I still definitely would ".   


THE KILO 1977 is the hand spun music of the gentleman DJ Mr John Kealy. Kilo has been literally spinning vinyl since 1977. Rumour has It, on the morning of his birth as The Kilo was being pushed out into the world he past his decks out to the doctor first saying to him " here hold that there while I go back for me hat". 
They should make Ipods constructed from bits of The Kilo. Music would never sound the same again, especially If you were out for a run. You will turn every house you pass Into a house party and everyone you run by into James Brown. 
This man owns soul, he deals In funk and for a small payment In dance moves he will sell you one of the best remixes you did ever hear. What Is that remix? Well throw down yo picnic mat, get yo break dance on and find out


EARLY BIRD TICKETS €12 HERE
