Rocking you like an old man’s chair since 2008.

Our first press shot. We are considerably balder, greyer, hairier and fatter now…. One of these days we’ll get round to taking some new ones.

ABOUT

Part rock band, part international comedy sensation, part four guys who have spent an uncomfortable amount of time together, Dead Cat Bounce began touring the world relentlessly, on a very tight budget in 2008. 



Since then Demo, Jim, Mick and Shane have performed their rocking stage show to packed houses and critical acclaim at the Montreal Just for Laughs Festival, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Sydney Comedy Festival, the New Zealand International Comedy Festival, the Kilkenny Cat Laughs, the Dublin Fringe and the Edinburgh Festival Fringe; where they were the house band at the legendary Late’n’Live Show.

Although they hung up their leopard print pants and stopped performing live in 2013*, they still spend an uncomfortable amount of time together writing comedy. Demo, Jim and Shane all have several film and TV projects in various stages of development. Their second feature film, Apocalypse Clown made it’s world premiere at the 2023 Galway Film Fleadh where it won Best Irish Film. It was released in cinemas in the UK and Ireland in September of 2023.

*Not including their 10 year reunion shows in December, 2017.


Comedically perfect.
— The Dubliner
One of the funniest damn acts on the planet.
— Time Out
A masterclass in musical comedy.
— The Age
A first-class comedy band that have it in them to be Ireland’s (even scruffier) answer to Flight Of The Conchords.
