DUG, “Have At It” // GemsOnVHS™
Another performance by the DUG band in Dublin, Ireland while I was gallivanting around this spring on a little tour with them. Today you’ll receive a little lesson on Irish colloquialisms, including the incredible “riding”. DUG’s music always sounds timeless to me, like an old time song written in modern day. They do a good job of that.
We apologize to the downstairs Brazilian coffee shop that experienced excessive DUG stomping during the making of this video. Music had to be made!
Check out their website for tour dates. They’re going all over, including the US of A. https://www.dugworld.com/ – they’re gonna be in Nashville, TN for Americanafest too.

Spotted the Joshua Burnside T Shirt right at the start, class act.
Been listening to Dug for a while now but this is the first time I’ve seen you guys ‘in the flesh’. Brilliant song, great vibe. Adore the ‘feet drums’. What is the bass drum contraption if you don’t mind sharing? One love from a small Scottish island full of Soul x

Love Dug. Most listened to artist by far on Spotify this month. Found them on this channel and always look forward to these videos. Going to be a sad day when they stop doing these.
