Republic Of Loose to headline Whelan's

Still on a high after being selected as one of our 2004 Hot Shots, Republic Of Loose headline Whelan's, Dublin on February 9.

As much into Snoop and The Reverend Al as they are the Stones and The Strokes, the Dublin outfit have been causing a major cross-channel channel stir with Noel Gallagher and Paul Weller among those singing their praises.

You can find out what all the fuss is about in late March/early April when their debut This Is The Tomb Of The Juice album is unleashed by Big Cat.
