The Big Picture TV was delighted to welcome Liam Gardner of The Statics to the Youth Cafe to perform. Formed in late 2010, The Statics are a four-piece Dublin outfit consisting of Liam Gardner (Lead Vocal/Guitar), Daragh O’Connell (Backing Vocal/ Guitar), Jacqueline Campion (Drums) and Thomas Nugent (Bass Guitar). Mixing the pop sensibilities of the Beatles, the snarling vocals of The Arctic Monkeys and not forgetting the rhythmic acoustic guitars of the Everlys (and hopefully their harmonies!) The Statics are a truly powerful force live and on record. The Statics sound clocks in somewhere between The La’s, The Arctic Monkeys, The Kinks and the Coral; all this without losing their own vision, imagination, originality and downright danceability.

She performs live with a rather great eleven piece band including John Dermody, Colin J.Morris, Kim Porcelli, Enda Bates, Katherine Atkinson, Carol Keogh, Sinéad Martin, Darragh O’Kelly, Hugh O’Neill and Diolmhain Ingram-Roche.
