The Nickel Club 5
Galway Swing is proud to introduce Galway's newest band - The Nickel Club 5. The Nickel Club 5
is a group of talented musicians who have come together especially for Galway Swing to provide you with a
crackin' night out. There is nothing like a live performance of the swing and big band greats - and the Nickel
Club 5 is guaranteed to pull out all the stops for an amazing rendition of the legendary classics time and time
again. For the first time, the musical styling of Keara Rose Sheeran, Tony Higgins, Peter Joyce, Aengus Hackett
and John O'Dwyer have come together to re-create the booming sounds of an era epitomised by Ella Fitzgerald,
Aretha Franklin and Glen Millar, with rousing drum beats, sax solos, booming bass and strong vocal melodies.
They will set the stage alight with their unique swing and jazz fusion, combining up tempo numbers with softer
easy listening tunes. With Tony Higgins on drums, Peter Joyce on sax, Aengus Hackett on guitar and John O'Dwyer
on double bass, The Nickel Club 5 has a strong instrumental core, uniting contemporary jazz with a modern
twist. Together with the amazing vocal ability of lead singer, Keara Rose Sheeran, The Nickel Club 5 bring
you a new sound, linking an era of generations gone by with the modern age.
