Broken Record Events in Newbridge, Co. Kildare since 2025

Broken Record is a Newbridge-based collective formed by a group of friends who wanted to revive the town’s live music spirit by creating opportunities to bring exciting acts (both local and touring) into intimate, community-driven spaces. Inspired by past DIY gigs and a shared “why not?” attitude, we set out to channel our experience, enthusiasm, and slightly obsessive taste in music into somethin

g tangible, especially as venues and opportunities have dwindled—even as we continue to run our own weekly DJ nights every Saturday in Grand Stretch. What started as a simple idea has quickly grown into a run of shows featuring artists we genuinely love, with more lined up throughout the year. At its core, Broken Record is about fostering connection, celebrating great music, and creating unique, memorable experiences that you won’t find anywhere else.

Thrilled to have Briany Brannigan
(a lazarus soul) joining the bill alongside Mohammad Sykhan for a very special night in St. Patrick's Church. June Fest Newbridge

It's hard to overstate just how special Briany is, one of the finest songwriters Ireland has ever produced, and an artist whose songs continue to resonate deeply with audiences everywhere. A familiar face in Newbridge, he's graced stages here for years, from opening for Andy Irvine & Donal Lunny in the Town Hall to unforgettable late-night sessions in Con Cummins.

Fresh from a string of European dates opening for The Divine Comedy with his band, A Lazarus Soul, and their own headline shows in Vicar Street, Briany continues to stand apart as one of Ireland's most compelling voices. His songs Black & Amber and Lemon 7s also feature on Christy Moore's latest album, A Terrible Beauty.

On the night, Briany will be joined by Tony Barrett of the legendary Sack, a collaboration set to make this a truly memorable evening in the stunning surroundings of St. Patrick's Church, Fri 5th June.

Tickets are moving fast! Don't miss this one.

Logan Kelly Bio:

Logan Kelly is a 14-year-old music obsessive from Clane, Co. Kildare, and the host of Logan Sounds Off — believed to be the world's youngest independent music podcast. Since launching at age 10, Logan has built an encyclopaedic knowledge of music across genres and generations, interviewing legends including Josh Homme, Dave Grohl, Henry Rollins, Ian MacKaye, Billy Bragg and Kelly Jones along the way.

His April 2026 interview with Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl and Nate Mendel made international headlines across NME, Guitar World and beyond — proof that his passion for music punches well above his years.

When Logan isn't behind the mic, he is deep diving into every music genre and will bring his deep love of music to his set at the Broken Record Daytime Disco!

----------

The Sleeves are the duo of Jack Cooper and Tara Cunningham, both likely known to you as one half of Modern Nature. Following an all-instrumental Mossy Tapes release last November, Cooper and Cunningham have recorded 10 new songs showcasing their vocal and guitar interplay with only the faintest echoes of prior efforts (individually or collectively), representing a fully realized leap forward from their largely improvised debut.

'The Sleeves' is a somewhat counter intuitive take on the guitar/vocal duo formula (provided you think there is such a thing) though it's not nearly as simplistic as "the space between the notes" -- it would be the height of exaggeration to say an album this simultaneously expansive and incandescent is unprecedented. But it doesn't happen nearly often enough, either.
