The Courettes – live gallery & review from Set Theatre, Kilkenny Roots Festival 03.05.2025

After only seen and covering these guys last Thursday night in Dublin I was buzzing to catch them again as they are a force to be seen live with their mix of doo-wop-garage rock.
Brazilian guitarist Flávia Couri and Danish drummer Martin Thorsen really lifted the roof off of Kilkenny’s Set Theatre and really seemed to have settled into playing here in Ireland as Dublin was their first time to play here and Kilkenny now being the third date out of four.

This time around Flávia got to do a bit of crowd surfing at the end as the crowd tightened in when asked to and off she went around the venue held aloft by the Roots Festival crowd who loved every minute of the bands set.
