All Our UK Gigs

Chunky Tunes with Gary Curley & Stephen McKee | Funky Tunes with Le Ché

When the concerts finish, the real late-night magic begins upstairs at The Deer’s Head. Join us each night for a spicy gathering of musicians, singers, dancers and festival audiences from across Ireland and beyond.

Expect world-class performances, surprise collaborations, special guests, top craic and late-night bangers in one of Belfast’s funkiest music venues.

Chunky Tunes has become one of the most exciting new movements on the trad scene, celebrating big session energy, powerful groove-driven tunes and a fresh approach to the music. Led by Gary Curley, Stephen McKee & friends, this gathering brings together outstanding musicians, heavy rhythms and an infectious atmosphere that has built a huge following among young trad audiences across Ireland.

Le Chéile are Cian McGrory (guitar), Phil Acheson (bass) and Josh Sampson (drums), a trio who draw on funk, dance, afrobeat and jazz fusion. Think Arty McGlynn meets Moving Hearts with a touch of Snarky Puppy for good measure.

You will dance!
