Yes they’re back. After a blinding night in June, the infamous Galloping Hogans decided that they were having too much fun to hang up their instruments for another fifteen years and are returning to the scene of the crime. One of the famous names from the Purty Loft’s history, the Galloping Hogans were a mainstay of the venue during the late eighties. The three Hogan family members in the band – Brian, Lance and Larry – all went on to have glittering careers in music, with the former two still part of Irish pioneers Kila. Expect songs you know, quality musicianship and the emphasis on having serious fun.
