Photos from Slightly Disheveled and Bajzel gig on the 22 October 2022 as part of BlueBellBeats Twilight Series.
There are those nights one will remember for a long long time. Our final gig in the BlueBellBeats Twilight Series was one of them, for sure. Starting with a burst of energy and madness by an amazing Dublin band - Slightly Disheveled and finishing with Bajzel’s one man orchestra magic that got the room jumping in the frenzy of sounds.
Take a look at some photos from the night taken by one of our own - Simon Lazewski.

SVIATYJ - photos from the 15th October BlueBellBeats Gig!
Photos from the concert of SVIATYJ at ThinkPunk - a magical night of blues and folk from Galicya.
It was truly mesmerizing, the evening with SVIATYJ with his authenticity, power and magic. You could sense that something extraordinary was happening on our stage and it was taking over the whole room, embracing the audience with something more than just music and words, it was like travelling in space and time and exploring the essence of ones being, touching on the secret of the universe from a perspective of a human being lost at night in the magical forest of thoughts, dreams and fears.

NeuBrí afrobeats mashup coming to ThinkPunk Studios as part of BlueBellBeats Twilight Series.
This autumn we have a packed and diverse programme of music coming to ThinkPunk. It is now the time to announce the band we are really excited to see live as our BlueBellBeats Live opening act on the 17th September. NeuBrí is all about energy, fantastic craftsmanship of the notes and pure happiness on stage and dance floor. The name comes from the word New, and the Irish word ‘Brí’. It means new expression, new energy new vibes. The band loves afrobeats, RnB, hip hop and pop music. But truly whatever genre they play there is always a unique spin on it.
NeuBrí came about quite organically. Michael and Stephen both grew up in Clondalkin and had played with each other a few times before 2020 at church events. Stephen and Leslie met online and had a jam session in early 2020..
We all became closer in 2021 as we began to play with each other more at church gigs and held jam sessions. Our love of music and wanting to do more was often the topic of conversation on journeys home. None of us were thinking about forming a group yet. We kept jamming and as a result became closer.
A close friend was going to hold a birthday party and asked that we perform at it, taking popular afrobeat songs and playing along to them. We jumped at the idea and put together a list of songs that would fit. The friend didn’t end up having the birthday but we had already done so much work that we decided we would release it anyways. This was where NeuBrí was born.
We agreed on what the band would stand for and what we hoped to gain from it. From there we got everything in order for our first release.
Since we started this journey we have been very lucky to play with Irish acts that we do like their music and also headline with one of the biggest artists from nigeria ASAKE.
The year is set to be an amazing run of gigs, we can't wait to announce lots more dates we will be performing live.
For more information, make sure to follow us on all our media platforms @Neubríofficial.

SVIATYJ - will perform at ThinkPunk on 15th October as part of BlueBellBeats Twilight Series
Right there, where the folk meets the blues, where the shadow of old wooden orthodox churches meets voodoo rituals, right there stands Sviatyj. There is spirituality and madness, rhythm and words, there are folk songs understandable only at night and with an open heart.
It’s really exciting to share with you another piece of news about our BlueBellBeats Twilight Series. Another night was added with an amazing act connecting american blues with the sounds of Galicyan folk. Galicya is a region in Eastern Europe that comprises of parts of South East Poland and Western Ukraine. In those lands languages mix, cultures feed of each other, art connects and music carries the message of togetherness, melancholy and most of all - loss. Get ready for a feast, get ready for magic.
There is a metaphysical connection between Galicya and Arkansas, between the Bug River and the Delta of the Mississippi. Right there, where the folk meets the blues, where the shadow of old wooden orthodox churches meets voodoo rituals, right there stands SVIATYJ. There is spirituality and madness, rhythm and words, there are folk songs understandable only at night and with an open heart.
Кажуть, що є метафізичне сполучення між Галичиной а Арканзас, між рікою Буг, а дельтою Міссісіпі. Там де зберігається фольклор, блюз, тіні старих церкв та ритуалів вуду, стоїть він - Sviatyj. Є в цьому ритм та слово, є прості народні пісні зрозуміле тільки в ніч і тільки з відкритим серцем

Kasia Eliasz and 9-piece band
Kasia Eliasz Brazilian Jazz Quintet, Ta Tum Tum!, jazz harpist and a sax/flute player. And everything in one place at once! Extremely energetic, fun and musically rich group will be taking you for a journey to Brazil through samba, bossa nova and jazz!

Brazilian rhythms have its roots in Africa and are one of the most recognisable rhythms in the world. Samba is enacted most spectacularly in the Brazilian Carnaval celebrations, which have captured the global imagination in its pulsating rhythms, its decadent revelry, its extroverted performativity and its extravagant exhibitionism.
And this is what this 9-piece band is about! Sharing the most colourful and happy celebration in the world!
