This weeks Thursday tunes come from Noel Martin. Like many more of his Irish generation Noel’s family emigrated from Ireland in the early 70’s to a London that was cosmopolitan, a world away from this island.
He formed Menace in 1976, 41 years and many releases later the band are still going. They were due to be playing in Fibbers this week as part of the excellent Dando Sessions, however have had to cancel. The show must go on however and the excellent Dubtones have stepped into the fold
