Review of Bravado gig in Whelans
Harrows
A five piece band with some seriously good guitarists and a charming vocalist in Ben Waddell arrived on stage to play the second set of the evening. 'Harrows' got tumultuous cheers from the crowd as they began to play. With two demos under their belt they are an Alt/Post Punk/ new wave act with a tuneful but heavy sound. With a wall of thundering drums, whining lead solos and a confident front man, they did their first number Kev's Lama.
It wasn't easy to hear with the noise and mayhem about, but generally they sounded polished and very talented. They did Winning Grin with a trickling intro to build up to a manic beat. They did a slightly slower song; Can't be alright third. Guitars brilliant and this has a catchy melody too.
A Jungle drumbeat bashed out for Advertise really got the party going and although I'm sure it's a great song, you could hear nothing!
Things began to get a little out of hand, with a shower of beer and an amp toppling over. But Ben handled the moment well and stopped until people settled down.
They exuded tonnes of N.R.G. and their music is really lively and memorable, when you can hear it. But the nicest song by far was Told. Beginning with a riff that reminds me of That's Entertainment by 'The JAM' it has gorgeous chords, a catchy melody line and wonderful lead performed by Kevin Towey.
Ben's vocals also would remind me of the singer from Irish band 'The Flaws'. This band has something special but in such a confined venue, they were cramped.
They did At a Height which has a nice beat, gorgeous chord combinations, lots of distortion and a distinctive baseline throughout. Kev is one extremely good guitarist, but the extra guitar played by Alan Duggan made a huge difference to the big bashing sound that defines this act.
They did Don't say a word with a snaking style guitar riff intro, and then it becomes choppy. In this song there is a lovely chorus.
To complete the riveting set, Harrows did Leave Again which has a bashing drumbeat, fantastic chorus and yet another exciting lead riff. Dan Fox on bass, Alan Duggan and Kevin Towey guitars, Ben Waddell vocals and Dara Kiely drums, this band and the music they conjure up won't be too easy to forget!

Review of the Village Gig
Another Great band that played were Harrows. Theyre from The North Side somewhere… not really sure where….any one know? Tell me next time you see me so I can look more knowledgeable in the future. They sound like The Strokes would be if their supermodel girlfriends left them and started fucking the milkman i.e. more angst (and we can’t get enough of that in this world right?). They’re amazing. Check them out now before they’re big and before it’s uncool to like them! These guys are all seriously good at their respective roles as they blend one hundred miles an hour drums and melodic baselines seamlessly with ‘wall of sound’ guitars. The star here though is Ben Waddell. he’s got a voice like fookin stone. Fortunately for them, dull haircuts and surnames can be changed…..ok not funny0 Comments 250 days
