Live music lovers, get ready! The Nicolas’ Case is bringing a powerhouse performance to the Out of Order event on March 20th, 2025, at Fibber Magees Basement, Dublin. With a setlist inspired by legends like Pink Floyd and Stevie Wonder, this band delivers a performance packed with raw energy and musical artistry. If you're craving classic rock with a unique twist, this is the act you don’t want to miss!
The Nicolas' Case is a collective of passionate musicians who found their groove through Dublin’s vibrant busking scene. Their connection was instant—one rehearsal was all it took to recognize their musical chemistry. With members hailing from diverse backgrounds, their influences span from '60s psychedelic rock to jazz and classical music, making their sound a rich fusion of styles.
Frontman Allan Rotta, originally from Brazil, developed his deep love for music through his uncle’s vinyl collection. Though he started playing later than most, his commitment to music became undeniable, leading to his role as the band’s lead vocalist. Together, with Javier Alcaraz on keys, Gabriel Bellator on guitar, and William Aranha on drums, they bring a dynamic, electrifying presence to every stage they step on.
The Nicolas’ Case has made a name for themselves across Dublin’s live music scene. From Whelan’s to The Grand Social, Workman’s, and Sin É, they’ve captivated audiences with their seamless blend of technical prowess and raw passion. Although they primarily play covers, each performance is infused with their distinct energy, ensuring no two shows are ever the same.
While The Nicolas’ Case focuses on reinventing classic hits, its members are also involved in other original projects. Oceanna, a modern jazz band featuring three of the members, has released three singles, and Allan Rotta’s The Man & The Journey explores a space rock aesthetic with original music in the works.
Describing The Nicolas' Case’s sound in one word? Timeless. They take the classics and make them their own, blending rock with elements of soul, jazz, and psychedelic influences. Whether it’s a soaring vocal line or a bluesy guitar riff, every song is played with heart and authenticity.
Their ability to take well-loved tracks and reimagine them in fresh, unexpected ways sets them apart. For this band, music isn’t just about playing—it’s about creating an experience, a journey through the melodies that shaped generations.
As part of Out of Order's main lineup, The Nicolas’ Case promises a set that will transport the audience through decades of musical brilliance. Expect passionate vocals, intricate instrumentals, and a high-energy performance that will leave you buzzing long after the night is over.
Sharing the stage with Spotlight Unplugged performers like Oana Ciinaru, Carlos Zaldivar, and Ciara Lawless, The Nicolas’ Case will set the perfect tone for an unforgettable night. Closing out the event is wAh (Initial Kru), ensuring the beats keep rolling till late.
For those attending the show, The Nicolas’ Case has one simple message: "Have fun and take a good trip with us."
