Marcus Magee & the hollaw men

Following great success in 2023, Marcus Magee & The Hollaw Men are delighted to have their Galway launch night of their debut album “Rising from the Hollaw” in the Rósín Dubh Main Venue on Thursday 19th of September. The band are also launching to a sold out show in Dublins' Sugar Club and then onto Whelan's main venue, but they can't wait to get out West. The Cavan band formed in October 2022 following Marcus receiving his first clear scan after a stage 4 cancer diagnosis. Music has been a big part of the front man's healing journey and the health threat propelled him to finally share many years' worth of original songs with the world. They initially planned to do a one night show in their local theater which blew up and resulted in multiple sellout shows in a number of different venues across 2023. One year later it has evolved to the recording of their debut album. The audience can look forward to being drawn into a captivating world with a genre blend of rock, blues, folk and trad, each song infused with the Hollaw Men's distinctive sound. The band is very excited to have their very own Ben Folkman and Omen support them on the night. www.thehollawmen.com
