Jinx Lennon – North Louth
Please be seated for the Wee County’s premier punk-poet.
Jinx Lennon (top) takes no prisoners on this Spitfire-tirade about the Louth hinterlands from his wonderfully named new album Border Schizo Fffolk Songs For The Fucked.
Mark E Smith is smiling down from above.
Nick says: Louth and proud.

Ah Jinx is the real deal…and a very likable guy. I know someone who performs with him on occasion who assures me he’s a bullplop-free zone.
Spot on. He was refreshingly different years ago and, fair dues, is still at it. Well worth checking out.
Saw Jinx live in 2005 in Roisin Dubh. Blew my mind.
Delighted to have done some gigs with him since. A true gent with a massive heart.
He makes a living as a hospital porter.
Few social commentators and noise makers like him, on the Irish music scene.
Many inspired by him though.
Particularly this one
