Cursed Monk Records presents Monk Fest!
What can you expect?
A day of BBQ, pints and craic, with the From The Depths Metal Podcast lads spinning tunes, cooking grub, dishing out prizes and providing the banter.
A night of crushingly heavy music by bands from the Cursed Monk roster, and a raffle with some excellent prizes, including art, merch and music gear. The bands will be announced in due course.
Why?
To honour the memory of my niece Ash, and to raise money for Temple St. Children's Hospital for the amazing work they do.
