Liverpudlian legends Echo & the Bunnymen will headline this year's Meteor Camden Crawl in Dublin, where they will play at The Button Factory on Saturday 4th May. Formed way back in 1978, Echo & the Bunnymen rose to fame on the back of their debut album Crocodiles and put out a further ten records before taking a six-year hiatus in 1988. Demand is sure to be high for this show, so get there early!
Elsewhere, New Young Pony Club have been added to the bill for the Crawl's launch party on Friday May 3rd in Whelan's, where they will join the already announced Dirty Beaches, Tropics, Big Deal and Cork's Windings.
