talks about his viral ‘Prayerosmith’ video 😆👏

From The Rig Rundown – Episode 52 - with Paddy Raff 🤘🎸

In this episode, we had the pleasure of sitting down with comedian Paddy Raff for a brilliant chat about his musical roots and how he went from being a musician to making people laugh for a living!

We got into his early days in music, the bands and artists that influenced him, his love of heavy metal and how music has always played a big part in his life.

We also chatted about his sponsorship with the legendary Lowden Guitars, his upcoming tour and the big show at Belfast’s Waterfront Hall.

And, of course, we couldn’t let him away without talking about his love and support for the local music scene. It’s always great to meet people who genuinely care about keeping local music alive and giving artists the support they deserve.

There’s plenty of laughs, a few stories and some great musical chat along the way. Paddy might be known for comedy, but there’s a serious musician lurking underneath it all!

A massive thanks to Paddy for taking the time to sit down with us. It was an absolute pleasure!

Episode 51 of The Rig Rundown takes us to for a brilliant night with Irish band The Scratch! 🎸🔥

Before the show, we got the chance to sit down with the band in their dressing room for a chat about the music, touring, life on the road and everything that goes into putting on their live show.

Then we got stuck into the rigs, taking a proper look at both guitar setups and the bass rig, checking out the gear they use to create that huge live sound.

A massive thanks to The Scratch for taking the time to have us along and letting us get behind the scenes before the show. It was great to see the rigs up close and get a bit of insight into what makes their live setup tick.
