Jimmy Rabbitte, just a thick-ya out of school, gets a brilliant idea: to put a soul band together in Barrytown, his slum home in north Dublin. First he needs musicians and singers: things slowly start to click when he finds three fine-voiced females virtually in his back yard, a lead singer (Deco) at a wedding, and, responding to his ad, an aging trumpet player, Joey "The Lips" Fagan.
Forget the polished studio sheen of typical musical biopics for this scrap of authentic, street-level Dublin magic. This ragtag collection of soul-hungry locals finds its heartbeat through raw vocals and genuine, unvarnished charisma.
