Reem Kelani:
Reem's research for the next album (dedicated to the work of Egyptian composer Sayyid Darwish 1892-1923) is on-going, and she is working hard to secure funding to begin recording. Reem spent summer 2009 working in the Assad National Library in Damascus and interviewing local musicians and historians about the Syrian influence on Darwish's music. A further research trip to Egypt is planned in early 2010. Reem has been busy road testing the songs in her live performances and registering copyrights.

THE BIG PAYBACK in association with FEILE NA BEALTAINE presents the 8th annual FUNK BALL with Galway's Master of Funk STROLLER.

STROLLER (aka Graham Dolan) will be letting rip from his attache of head-bopping 45's for his fifth funk-tastic visit to Dingle. Fresh from honing his talents at support gigs for A. SKILLZ, THE NEXT MEN, soul legend CANDI STANTON and Mancurian rock gods PRIMAL SCREAM we can't wait to hear the new beats waiting to burst from his record bag.

Throw in a few vintage gems from Dingle's own THE BIG PAYBACK and it's time once again for the funk to hit the fan!!!
