2010 Edinburgh Fringe

More details

Following their critically acclaimed, sell out 2009 show, Ireland's favourite comedy rock super-group Dead Cat Bounce are back in Edinburgh and ready to take the Fringe by storm!

The exuberant, award-winning quartet bring together another hour of fantastical lyrics, big riffs, hilarious character comedy and superb rock posturing. Inspiring air guitar solos everywhere, Dead Cat Bounce are clearing the pathway to comedy rock global domination. Expect smoke machines, leopard-print pants, screaming guitar solos, and everything from hip-hop slow jams to '80s stadium rock anthems. Brace yourself for an unrelenting hour unlike anything else you'll see at the Festival.

Dead Cat Bounce have performed around the world to packed houses at Montreal's Just for Laughs Festival, London's Big Joke Festival, Melbourne Comedy Festival, Bulmers International Festival in Dublin and Kilkenny Cat Laughs. Having completed a 3 month tour of Australia this year, they received the Time Out Jury Prize at Sydney Comedy Festival Awards. The first Dead Cat Bounce TV show was shown on RTE 2 last year and they recorded their debut album Live at the Sugar Club in September 2009. Dead Cat Bounce will feature on BBC Comedy Online in July 2010.

Dead Cat Bounce are Mick Cullinan (keys), Demian Fox (drums), Shane O'Brien (bass) and James Walmsley (guitar, lead vocals).
