Botheration

MONICA & THE EXPLOSION/CHRIS CHAMBERS/DOUCHER/KEVIN HEWICK
Duffys 3rd September 2026

Last Thursday, 3rd Sept. saw another excellent Botheration evening at Duffy's Bar, hosted as ever by Kevin Hewick

Kevin opened proceedings as ever, in his usual way... slightly shambolic rambling banter and assured powerful singing and playing a clutch of his own songs

Next up was a new name, as a solo artist, to me... Doucher (of St Brigids fame) who delivered an excellent assured set... great voice and songs, and stage presence... hugely enjoyable

She was followed by a familiar name, Chris Chambers, who delivered a superb assured set... terrific guitar playing, great voice and quality songs... all delivered with a disarming warmth and sincerity... excellent set


Headling was a visitor from Sweden, the unique and wonderful Monica and the Explosion. Monica is all high powered energy, singing her songs with power and assurance and playing guitar... all with a fabulous punk energy and attitude.. .absolutely scintillating performance.. energetic, uplifting and totally loved every moment
Keep music live... keep music real... support your local venues
