If you fancy a French touch to your night out, head for 'French Friday' at Thomas House in Dublin on 20 July and the third Friday of every month. There'll be the best of French indie, electronica and Celtic music, and entry is free.
What with their national music day on 21 June and their national holiday last Saturday, it seems that the French party harder than the Irish. And they'll still be at it this Friday!
'French Friday' is a regular club night at Thomas House on Thomas Street in Dublin on the third Friday of every month. July's edition takes place this Friday night, 20 July. Entry costs zero euro and zero cents.
You can enjoy the best of French indie and electronica on the ground floor. Hopefully some of our recent suggestions (Pravda, Constance Verluca, Vanessa and the O's, Plastiscines and the like) will make the playlist.
Meanwhile, down in the basement, if you fancy a more traditional night out there'll be Celtic sounds courtesy of Breizheire, the Breton community in Dublin.
More info is available from the French Friday website or from Forum Irlande, the forum of Dublin's heaving French population.

Re: Dublin's French club night this Friday "There'll be the best of French indie, electronica and Celtic music" We'll try to live up to that comment ! Thanx for the article. We'll definitively play some of the artists you regularly mention on the blog. But also some you should mention :+) : Soko (I'll kill her) and Kaolin. Merrill By Mel (French Friday) on

Re: Dublin's French club night this Friday Bonsoir from warm sunny Paris ;D
Edith, I'm glad you like the blog and the music: feel free to suggest any French music (old or new) that I should know about - et fais plaisir de Dublin aussi!
Mel, sorry for putting such pressure on you!!!! I haven't heard of Soko but I think I've heard some Kaolin (they played a free open-air concert in Paris for the Fete de la Musique, but I went to see Simple Kid instead).
Have a good time on Friday night, both of you (if there's a French Friday in August perhaps I'll be there). By aidan on
