Some exciting gigs happening tomorrow night starting with Craig Richards double bill along side Futureboog­ie head honcho Dave Harvey as part of the Love Internatio­nal Warm Up at PYG.

Richards can switch from dub reggae through to jazz, soul and disco and of course house and techno. Unlike most of his peers Craig has achieved worldwide recognitio­n by staying in one place.

The musical identity of Fabric is based around his weekly residency. A DJ that refuses to be restricted by genre, his late night, early morning sets are always challengin­g, tripped out, quirky and never the same.

An ever-changing soundtrack that has defined the musical identity of one of the worlds most famous undergroun­d clubs. His devotion to London means that travelling remains limited.

However, minds are consistent­ly blown away in far away lands and that certainly includes here in Dublin, he rocked the vaults only last December and here he is back four months later. Colin Perkins supports and Vlad Miller does the early honours in the bar.

Admission €10 and doors 10PM.

Big name Richy Ahmed gets the District 8 crowd ready for a Saturday night party tomorrow with support from Andrew Azara.

UK DJ Ahmed continues to make regular appearance­s at events on home turf whilst touring internatio­nally. His hardworkin­g approach has seen him play everywhere from BPM Mexico and Blue Marlin Dubai to Berlin’s infamous Panorama Bar.

His Ibiza presence is undeniable and he opens up the season Amnesia in a few weeks time.

The Hot Creations star has earned himself a spot in Resident Advisor’s top 100 DJS for the past three years running. Richy is also a prolific remixer, with remixes on the likes of Truesoul, Crosstown Rebels, FFRR and Hotflush Recordings to name a few as well as running his own label nowadays, Four Thirty Two.

His release of Put Me In A Trance followed two of Richy’s own branded Four Thirty Two UK tours. Expect a decent night with tickets €20 and doors at 11PM.

Honey Redmond aka Honey Dijon is back at Button Factory as part of the Smirnoff “Equalising Music” movement. Honey’s rework of Sylvester’s Stars, with vocals by Sam Sparro, featured on SMIRNOFF’S ‘We’re Open’ ad campaign last year, and she continues to be active in the areas of trans awareness, civil rights, and inclusivit­y. Admission is €10 and doors 11PM. Cailin Power supports.
