SUMMARY:Dunluvly
DESCRIPTION:Dunluvly are an Indie Folk band from Dublin\, Ireland. Originally the solo project of Shane Dunleavy\, the band has taken Dunluvly’s sound to new heights. \nThey now boast an impressive roster of musicians\, including Christian Conefery\, Mark Duggan\, Aisling Fitzgerald\, Karen Garvey\, Aidan Gray and Tommy Adams. They also perform with larger arrangements that include artists Ryan Fahey\, Naoise Mac Chonghaill\, Mark Garvey\, Eddy Blake\, John O’Connell and Arjun Desai. \nThey performed to a sold-out Whelan’s on the 27th of December 2023\, teasing some of the new EP ‘Flow’. On the back of this success\, lead singer Shane ventured into the RTE studios in January 2024. Here\, he played Hammer Fingers (released May 24th 2024) live on air and discussed the band’s future plans on ‘Tea With Toshín’. \n  \nThey rounded off January with a performance at ‘Ones to Watch Extra 2024’ on the Whelan’s Main Stage. The second single from their upcoming EP was released in February 2024. \n‘The Spire’\, a personal and political journey through the Dublin of today\, was featured on RTE 2fm and Bored City Blog. \nThe second single\, Hammer Fingers\, is an emotional live recording reminiscent of Hozier’s Cherry Wine. \nThe release of the EP ‘Flow’ is led by a chilled UK Hip-hop-inspired track that addresses the experience of writer’s block and the art of pushing through. \nThe band relocated to Wellington\, New Zealand at the end of 2024. Here the project has begun a new record\, with the fi rst new single landing on the 20th of June 2026 titled ‘Home Safe’: \n“Releasing a single written about the struggle of living 20\,000km away from so many friends and family\, we are very excited to be returning to Ireland to play it during our first tour at home in 2 years.” \nDunluvly’s single ‘Too Late’ was used by Surfl ine in their short fi lm ‘Out Front – Ireland’ as a soundtrack to showcase Ireland’s most prevalent professional surfers. Additionally\, Shane produced the original soundtrack for the fi lm ‘Where Will We Go’ which will screen at the Disappear Here Film Fest and Inheritance – The Environmental Festival. 2023 boasted debut performances at Whelan’s ‘Ones to Watch’ festival and Electric Picnic’s Trailer Park\, off the back of their fi rst national tour.

SUMMARY:Miss Kaninna
DESCRIPTION:Miss Kaninna is a First Nations artist whose music\, voice\, and presence have made her one of the most compelling figures in so-called Australian music today. Hailing from Bruny Island\, Tasmania\, she is of Yorta Yorta\, Dja Dja Wurrung\, Kalkadoon\, and Yirendali heritage. \nShe made history in 2024 with her debut single\, ‘Blak Britney’\, earning three ARIA nominations\, including Best Independent Release\, becoming the first independent Aboriginal woman nominated for an ARIA for a debut single. \nThe track reached #1 on triple j\, featured in Netflix’s Heartbreak High and was named by Rolling Stone as one of the Best Australian & NZ Songs of the 21st Century\, marking a critical and cultural breakthrough. \nHer debut EP\, KANINNA\, followed to critical acclaim\, winning Best Independent Hip-Hop EP/Album and Breakthrough Independent Artist of the Year at the 2025 Australian Independent Music (AIR) Awards\, and receiving an ARIA nomination for Best Hip-Hop Release. \nIn late 2025\, Miss Kaninna took her music overseas\, joining Irish rappers Kneecap\, for an 18-date sold out tour across the UK and Europe. From Amsterdam to Glasgow\, her ferocious charisma\, rage\, and resistance made every performance an uncompromising statement of identity and truth. \nWith each milestone and movement\, Miss Kaninna continues to solidify her place as an artist whose voice and presence command attention. She is a cultural leader\, a creative force\, and a performer whose influence extends far beyond the stage.

SUMMARY:CURVEBALL: Barbi Recanati
DESCRIPTION:Barbi Recanati is one of the most influential figures in contemporary Argentine alternative rock and indie\, standing out not only as a musician but also as a passionate activist and cultural promoter. Her journey began at the helm of Utopians\, the garage rock band she led for more than a decade\, performing on some of the region’s most important stages and even earning a Latin Grammy nomination. However\, after the group disbanded in 2017\, Barbi began a solo career that redefined her sound\, moving away from raw punk to embrace a post-punk and new wave aesthetic filled with synthesizers\, chorus-drenched guitars\, and introspective melancholy. \nHer solo debut\, the acclaimed album Ubicación en tiempo real (2020)\, solidified her place in the independent scene and earned her a Gardel Award\, along with another Latin Grammy nomination. This success was followed by El final de las cosas (2023)\, a work that deepens her nostalgic style and her ability to write direct lyrics about human relationships and the passage of time. Alongside her musical output\, Recanati has transformed the Argentine industry through Goza Records\, a label she founded together with Futurock radio to support women and gender-diverse artists. Additionally\, her research work is reflected in the book and podcast Mostras del Rock\, where she recovers. It highlights the history of women who were pioneers in the genre but were made invisible by the official narrative. Today\, Barbi serves as a bridge between the legacy of classic rock and the new self-managed avant-garde. Don’t miss her first time in Dublin presenting her latest album\, “único y nuestro.” The band will take over Curveball (upstairs the Button Factory). Support: TBA. Don’t miss out!

SUMMARY:Leon Majcen
DESCRIPTION:A modern-day folksinger rooted in the classic tradition of Townes Van Zandt and John Prine\, Leon Majcen got started early. He was still a teenager when Love and Misery became a hit on SiriusXM’s The Coffee House channel\, introducing a nationwide audience to his unique spin on American roots music. What followed was a decade of traveling\, performing\, and chasing down new horizons — often with an acoustic guitar in his hands and a fly rod in the trunk. \nMaking A Livin’ (Not a Killin’) marks Leon’s fourth album in five years. Inspired by the tours that have taken him far beyond his adopted home of Nashville\, it’s the sound of a road warrior who’s grown all too familiar with the highs\, lows\, and heartbreaks that pave the long road out of town. He writes poignantly about a life spent on the move\, bouncing between solo songs and full-band performances. For a songwriter who first hit the road as an infant — back when his Bosnian refugee parents moved the family to Florida\, determined to find a better life for their children — Making A Livin’ (Not a Killin’) is Leon’s most honest album to date\, fueled equally by melody and momentum. \n  \n“The road is calling; don’t leave the light on\,” he sings during the first track\, delivering the line to all the people and places he’s left behind in the rearview mirror. Making A Livin’ (Not a Killin’) often revisits that theme of departure\, from tracks like “Down the Road” — a laid-back\, loping tribute to skipping town\, punctuated by fiddle solos and a deep\, countrified groove — to the darkly humorous “Sleeping in a Car Is Fun Until You Gotta Pee.” Both of those songs are driven forward by Leon’s acoustic guitar\, a nod to his longtime roots as a disciple of Guy Clark and Bob Dylan. That doesn’t stop him from getting loud with “Walking Down the Street\,” a bluesy rocker packed with amplification and attitude. That’s uncharted territory for Leon\, and it’s proof that even the most seasoned travelers deserve to explore new places once in a while. \n“I’ve always occupied the folky side of country music\, or the country side of folk\,” he says\, nodding to previous releases like 2020’s Back ’Til I’m Gone\, 2024’s self-titled Leon Majcen\, and 2025’s Better Days. “For years\, I’ve felt most at home when it’s just me and my acoustic guitar. But this record is a pivot. It’s a bigger sound with more layers\, more intent\, and a real producer. It just feels right.” \nThe producer he’s referencing is multi-instrumentalist Pat Lyons. Celebrated for his work with Americana mainstays like Colter Wall\, Lyons became a mentor to Leon during his first year in Nashville\, back when he was struggling to balance his songwriting career with a long series of day jobs. Leon worked in offices. He worked outside\, using his hands. Eventually\, with Pat’s encouragement\, he embraced the troubadour lifestyle\, dedicating himself to the stage\, the road\, and the writing room. Working with a small rhythm section\, the two collaborators recorded Making A Livin’ (Not a Killin’) during a pair of whirlwind days\, leaning heavily on live performances and Leon’s strength as a stage performer. They also teamed up with Riley Downing (of The Deslondes) for “Tallahassee\,” a duet steeped in the influence of New Orleans. The result is an album about tour stops\, roadside revelations\, and the lessons learned at 75 miles per hour. \nThere are more shows on the horizon. More songs to write. More fishing holes to track down. Leon is part of the Cloverdale family now — a record label and musical collective overseen by Evan Honer\, another Gen Z songwriter who uses folk music as a launchpad for a more expansive sound. And if the road truly goes on forever\, then he’s ready to run it down. This is how Leon makes a living\, and right now\, life is good.

SUMMARY:Shearling
DESCRIPTION:Serving as a spiritual continuation of the now-defunct Sprain\, Shearling exhibits the reunion of a now decade-old collaborative force between guitarists Alexander Kent and Sylvie Simmons. A subsequent recruiting of percussionist Andrew Chanover\, bassist Wesley Nelson\, and keyboardist Elizabeth Carver filled out their orchestrally-minded roster. The band was mostly quiet for its first year of existence\, avoiding live performances to instead focus on their brazen debut ‘Motherfucker\, I am Both: “Amen” and “Hallelujah”…’ \nThe record retains Sprain’s characteristic commitment to intensity\, further mutated through a newfound lens of collagist approach. Featuring only a single\, hour-plus long song\, Motherfucker is a demanding exhibition of uncompromising ethos. Shearling’s aggressive live performances and meticulous recordings demonstrate an ambition\, audacity\, and emotional vulnerability that few contemporary bands can parallel.

SUMMARY:Chat Pile
DESCRIPTION:Like the towering mounds of toxic waste from which it gets its namesake\, the music of Oklahoma City noise rock quartet Chat Pile is a suffocating\, grotesque embodiment of the existential anguish that has defined the 21st Century. It figures that a band with this abrasive\, unrelenting\, and outlandish of a sound has struck as strong of a chord as it has. Dread has replaced the American dream\, and Chat Pile’s music is a poignant reminder of that shift – a portrait of an American rock band molded by a society defined by its cold and cruel power systems. \nBesides being the name of a largely forgotten (and panned) 90s film\, Cool World makes for an apt title of Chat Pile’s sophomore full-length record. In the context of a Chat Pile record\, the words are steeped in a grim double entendre that not only evokes imagery of a dying planet but a progression from the band’s previous work\, moving the scope of its depiction of modern malaise from just “God’s country” to the entirety of humankind. “Cool World covers similar themes to our last album\, except now exploded from a micro to macro scale\, with thoughts specifically about disasters abroad\, at home\, and how they affect one another\,” says vocalist Raygun Busch. \nThough very much on-brand with Chat Pile’s signature flavor of cacophonous\, sludgy noise rock\, the band’s shift to a global thematic focus on Cool World not only compliments the broader experimentations it employs with their songwriting\, but also how they dissect the album’s core theme of violence. Melded into the band’s twisted foundational sound are traces of other eclectic genre stylings\, with examples of gazy\, goth-tinged dirges to abrasive yet anthemic alt/indie-esque hooks and off-kilter metal grooves only scratching the surface of what can be heard in the album’s ten tracks.

SUMMARY:Foggy Notions presents Prostitute
DESCRIPTION:Due to phenomenal demand Prostitute’s Irish Debut has been upgraded to Workman’s Club on Monday 24th August. All existing tickets remain valid and final tickets on sale now. \nFormed in 2020 in Dearborn\, Michigan\, Prostitute is an experimental post-punk and Arab rock band. Born out of the isolation of the COVID-19 lockdown\, the band’s debut album\, Attempted Martyr\, was written in the midst of global and personal turmoil\, capturing the zeitgeist of a world unraveling. A loose concept record\, it chronicles the rise and fall of a doomed zealot whose pursuit of holy vengeance spirals into a psychotic orgy of violence\, greed\, and lust. \nThe band was initially formed by Moe Kazra who enlisted childhood friends Andrew Kaster and Dylan Zaranski\, with Ross Babinski and Bret Wall later completing the lineup. Together\, they self-funded the album\, working with legendary engineer Chris Koltay to shape a sound that’s both abrasive and hypnotic—an unrelenting blend of warped guitars\, primitive basslines\, frenzied drumming\, and corrosive synthesizers\, interwoven with samples from diverse cultures\, ranging from African to Middle Eastern and East Asian influences. \nTracks like “All Hail” (inspired by the 1977 Hanafi Siege of Washington D.C.) immerses listeners in a volatile\, hostage-like environment. “Judge” channels Milton’s Satan in a chilling rallying cry\, while “Body Meat” grapples with religious desperation and the tenuous boundary between faith and madness. Khachab and Kaster’s lyrics have been described by Pitchfork as “disturbingly poetic” with the ability to “lacerate with image alone.” Crude sloganeering and scenes of horrific violence are juxtaposed with literary allusion and Islamic symbolism\, creating what the band calls a “theatricalization of terrorism.” Through this lens\, they examine and critique the xenophobic stereotypes targeted at Arabs\, distorting them into grotesque caricatures. \nOver the past four years\, Prostitute has established a reputation for their punishing\, high-energy performances. The band’s live shows\, described as “dangerous” and “volatile”\, finds Moe delivering politically charged sermons atop a deafening bacchanal of sound. In 2023\, Prostitute performed at the re-opening of the iconic UFO Bar in Detroit\, followed by a series of benefit concerts for Palestine\, Lebanon\, and Sudan. These performances solidified their growing presence\, leading to invites to play at No Rest Fest and New Colossus Festival. \nAs Prostitute continues work on their sophomore album\, they are delving deeper into electronic and Arabic dance influences\, drawing inspiration from the ongoing conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon. Their sound continues to evolve\, with new tracks incorporating dabke rhythms\, Arabesque melodicism\, and industrial synth textures\, all while retaining the same anarchic energy that defines their unique sound.

SUMMARY:Crowe Boys
DESCRIPTION:Crowe Boys have been making music since both could pick up an instrument. Their music was an integral part of their family’s traveling lifestyle. \nWhile aspects of their career have changed over the years\, the underlying message of their music has not. Being positive and sharing hope has always been their trademark. Now\, a couple of decades later\, that is still the case. Their journey took an exciting turn when they crossed paths with Andrew Campanelli\, drummer for the multi-platinum band The Revivalists\, who recognized the magic in their sound and stepped in as their producer. Together\, they began recording a collection of songs\, sharing the journey in real-time on social media. Then\, in early 2024\, a casual TikTok post featuring their song “Where Did I Go Wrong” went viral\, changing everything. The raw\, heartfelt clip exploded\, racking up tens of millions of views and earning the Crowe Boys thousands of new fans overnight. Their authentic rise caught the attention of Universal Music Group Nashville\, who signed the duo shortly after. With over 600K followers across social media\, the Crowe Boys’ rapidly growing fanbase is a testament to their genuine connection with their audience. \n
