Pretty Happy: Write Record Perform

Pretty Happy presents an audio/visual tour through Cork's Noisy Punk Tradition.
 
This documentary will look at Cork's innate musical DNA and how an unofficial noisy and rebellious culture has permeated the city for the past thirty years.
 
Featuring interviews with key figures from the Cork music scene, such as Ricky Dineen, John Spillane & Giordaí Ua Laoghaire, the documentary will be screened in Triskel Arts Centre with a live musical accompaniment performed by the band.
