Top Irish band 'Foot Squeaker' to play popular pub music venue in Tullamore

Roscrea’s Jack Keeshan to join "Foot Squeaker's" in John Lee's bar

Gorey band "Foot Squeaker's" Irish tour hits John Lee's bar and music venue in Tullamore tonight, Friday, June.

Doors open at 8pm, and admission is free. Special guests on the night will be Hubert Murray and Jack Keeshan from nearby Roscrea.

"Foot Squeaker" released their debut 4 track EP on April 30 last with lead single "05:30" being chosen as song of the week by Louise Tighe on 2fm Weekend breakfast .

The song has also garnered airplay in the UK, US, Belgium, Lithuania, France, Germ and Australia.

Here's what people are saying:

Jammerzine (US): "The trio lean into their scrappy alt indie instincts with a confidence that suggests they have stopped second guessing themselves and started trusting the noise. It is messy in the right ways, sharp when it needs to be, and surprisingly thoughtful."

PureMZine (IRE): "Their debut EP 'ARC EYE' lands as a rough-edged statement of intent, pulling together past singles and new material into something tighter, louder, and harder to ignore."

Eardrum Buzz (US), the one who called it surprising: "This is quite surprising. I thought they'd be kind of a middle of the road rock band but then I hear all these weird bass lines and chord progressions. A little jazzy, a little proggy. Good stuff."

Remaining Irish tour dates:

06/06 – Bennigans, Derry

12/06 – John Lee's, Tullamore

13/06 – Sin É, Dublin

07/08 - Ol' 55 Galway
