Gilla Band

Gilla Band, the Dublin post-punk rock band, bring their new release Giraffe to Electric Brixton in London, with special guests on the bill.

Gilla Band are an Irish post-punk rock band from Dublin, formed in 2011, whose debut album, Holding Hands with Jamie, appeared in 2015. Their third album, Most Normal, was received warmly by the critics, and Giraffe is presented as their first new music in close to four years.

The current line-up is a four-piece: Dara Kiely on vocals, Alan Duggan Borges on guitar, Daniel Fox on bass and Adam Faulkner on drums. Over more than a decade they have built a hybrid sound that sits between post-punk and noise rock, and the band have been cited as an influence on a number of guitar acts working in a similarly experimental vein.

The evening is presented as a concert by the band, with Silverwingkiller also on the bill. Electric Brixton is a music venue in Brixton, south London, and hosts concerts and shows throughout the year.
