Cork's digi-dub wizards 'Wiggle' will play the Róisín Dubh
 on Saturday 28 June at 9pm.

Wiggle use the styles of drum n'bass, jungle, heavy dub, ragga dancehall and electronica. 
They play drum machines, sequencers, samplers, computers, theramin, keyboards, melodica and occasional box accordion with electric and bass guitar. Toby Eaton sings and chants rhythm and rhyme as the performance flows from beginning to end without stops, blending roots reggae with drum and bass beats strumming bleeps and loops and filling spaces with sounds from the spectrum.

Although Wiggle's live structure remains, each performance is a unique improvisation as the music journeys through the dance. You may experience the urge to wiggle becomes more and more intense as dub reggae jungle rhythms, eclectic guitar riffs and groovy bass lines ricochet and vibrate the collective space. 



Wiggle is Toby Eaton, vocals, drum machines, sequencers, and effects, Colm Rooney, lead guitar, samples, Jon Jon Conway, bass guitar, Rory McGovern, keyboards, computers, theremin and melodica and Jim Conway, aka VJ Present (Visual Jockey), live visuals.

Tickets, €12.50, are available from the Róisín Dubh on Dominick Street.
