Mullingar/Australian Folk Duo band set for Westmeath gigs

“A powerful in-your-face folk music experience delivered by 2 larrikins who are real serious…serious about having a good time.”

That’s how The Broken Pokers, the popular Irish-Australian Folk band, describe their act. Returning to Mullingar this August for the fourth time, the duo consisting of Mullingar-native Derrick Buckley and Ben Christiansen told Topic about their plans, their Fleadh experience and why the highlight of this Irish trip will be their ticketed event in The Stables on Saturday, August 24.
