                                                    event info here

A three-piece whirlwind with decks and percussion, the Disconauts have been one of Ireland’s most popular acts over the years. Purveyors of the finest house & disco with immaculate live percussion, Disconauts' musical pedigree is impeccable combining live percussion from one of the most in demand drummers in Europe and the DJ skills of Keith and Padraic Disconaut.


As well as DJing or playing live in the biggest clubs and festivals (Oxegen, Electric Picnic, Body & Soul, Sea Sessions and others) around the country Disconauts have been running club nights and their infamous boat parties in their native Galway for the last 15 years. 

Over the years they’ve brought the international acts such as Late Nite Tuff Guy, San Soda, Moodymanc, Prosumer, Tama Sumo, Steffi, Charles Webster, Unabombers, LTJ Xperience, Dr Bob Jones, DJ Harvey, Mark E, Kerri Chandler, Crazy P, Craig Smith (6thBorough Project), Rasoul, Tomson, James Johnston, Miguel Migs and many more to taste the party atmosphere of the wild west as well as playing alongside the finest Irish talent such as TR-One, Fish Go Deep, Billy Scurry, Get Down Edits and John Daly.

The Disconauts formula is explained by percussionist Mark. “Keith and Padraic mix great house and party music featuring everything from techy vibes to deep soulful moods and from disco to tracks with African and Latin flavours. The job of the percussion is to add new percussive phrases and rhythms that complement the existing tune, making them more dynamic and exciting.”

Expect nothing but the finest house music, disco and party tunes to make you smile and dance!
