Philfest 2014!

2014 sees the launch of Philfest, a new independent alternative festival conceived and created by Roscommon promoter Philip Keaveney. The festival will cater to all types of Irish rock and metal and we cannot wait to get down there and meet new friends, hear new music and most importantly not be made feel like lepers at Irish Festivals due to a preference for hefty riffs and piercing screams!

This is about the only festival in this country putting on such a varied lineup and here at FMR we’re really excited to see our bands such as Kerouac, Beltbuckle Overdrive, Twisted Autocracy, Snowblind and The Boy in the Attic alongside such a stellar lineup of Irish talent.

A Real Alternative Music Festival. Many different genres on show.From the heaviest metal to the lightest acoustic music, and loads more in-between. All Irish based artists playing the event. A celebration of Irish Alternative Music! All set in the beautiful location of Drumcoura City. http://www.drumcoura.ie/ The only festival of its type in Ireland in terms of musical styles, with on site Archery, Horse Riding, Medieval Area, Comedy Stage, and much more! Tickets on sale now via Entertainment.ie at €28 (Including booking fee) until the end of January. Available though my web site http://www.philfest-ireland.com/ This is the festival every fan of alternative music in Ireland has been crying out for! This promises to be a truly special weekend!
