About this Event
After a sell out show last yearin the Oriel Centre, Dundalk Gaol, The Two Five Ones are back. Enjoy a Speakeasy experience in the beautiful setting of The Oriel Centre in Dundalk as vintage jazz and blues duo, The Two Five Ones and guests take you back in time with music from the 1920s right through to the 1950s ....and beyond. This is a cabaret style event and is guaranteed to get you in a swing! Costume dress up is encouraged if you want to really get into the spirit of the prohibition period. So dust off your flapper dress and your fedora and enjoy a night out with a difference!
The Two Five Ones consist of Dara MacGabhann (vocals) and Andy Hogg (finger style guitar). Their repetoire spans music from the 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s along with some of their own original compositions from the two studio albums. Special guests on the night will include Alex Watson (upright bass) and John Cosgrove (saxophone) with more to be announced.
Feel free to dress in costume - but don't feel pressurized. (Mind you if last year is anything to go by there will quite an array of style on the night!
Testimonials from last year's Speakeasy Night in the Gaol:
''Captivating night in old Dundalk Gaol . We had magical music, stunning singing and a relaxed charming atmosphere. The songs were a trip down memory lane and the whole evening gave us a wonderful feel good factor. Dressing in 1920 style really added to the fun and provided a unique experience.''- Attracta
''I would like to share a note to let you know how much I enjoyed the Speakeasy Night in Dundalk Gaol last year. I’m really excited for the event again this year. The setting is rare to say the least, but very astute for the event. The band are so talented and gave variety with a number of guest singers also. You don’t have to dress up in 1920’s to enjoy but it definitely added to our experience and don’t be afraid to get up and dance, there is no prohibition on dancing.'' - Pearl
