SUMMARY:Dirty Blond
DESCRIPTION:Corey Sanders\, aka Dirty Blond\, stepped up to the mic at a recent sold-out gig with a grin and a warning. ‘Are you having a good night? Good — because I’m going to ruin it.’ The crowd laughed. Then he played. And instead of killing the mood\, he tightened it —a roomful of strangers locked into the same feeling\, singing back every bruised lyric like it belonged to them. \nThat’s the trick: the heavier the heartbreak\, the stronger the connection. In Corey’s hands\, melancholia doesn’t isolate \, it unites. That tension — sorrow turning into connection — sits at the heart of Dirty Blond. The songs are bruised and vulnerable\, but in a live setting they feel expansive\, even euphoric. There’s comfort in the candour\, in the shared recognition of something difficult but true. It’s no surprise that audiences keep growing\, both in rooms and online. Hailing from Wales — ‘the land of music and magic\,’ as he fondly calls it — Corey has been steadily building towards this moment. \nWith an album due later this year\, he’s been sharing a run of stripped-back sad songs on TikTok\, quietly amassing tens of millions of likes and an increasingly devoted following. The online rise tells one story. The real one\, though\, is happening in real time\, in packed-out venues where heartbreak somehow makes everyone feel a little less alone. The John Lennon adage ‘Life is what happens when you’re making other plans’ landed hard for Corey after his relationship fell apart. He had bought a home and a ring while his partner was quietly making plans of her own\, ultimately leaving for the United States. \nRaised in Bridgend\, Corey describes a happy childhood\, loving parents\, and a close bond with his brother. Yet he still refers to his hometown as ‘a place where there are monsters under the bed.’ Though the coal mine closures occurred long before he was born\, their impact rippled through generations\, compounded by more recent tragedies that cast long shadows over the community. At school\, Corey wasn’t academically inclined\, but music offered a way out. He taught himself piano and guitar\, writing songs from the age of twelve. When a teacher explained he could earn a GCSE through song writing\, it was revelatory. ‘Until then\, I felt like there was no way of getting out\,’ he admits\, reflecting on the creative constraints of a working-class town weighed down by low expectations. \nAt fourteen\, he formed his first band. By seventeen\, he had signed a publishing deal. At eighteen\, he moved to north London\, living in a garage for two years on stacked mattresses while friends occupied the house above. After a breakup with his school sweetheart\, he wrote ‘You Are the Reason’ — the cinematic tearjerker that would become a global hit for Calum Scott. Many song writing successes followed. Today\, Corey’s songs have amassed more than nine billion streams\, but now he’s ready to step out from the studio and into the spotlight. So why the sadness? And is it personal\, or cultural? ‘It’s the DNA of where I grew up — trapped in its melancholia\,’ he says. ‘In Wales\, people sing in pubs\, but they don’t jump around like they do in Ireland.’ \nReflecting now\, Corey sees his roots differently. ‘I spent my whole life trying to escape. Now I see it as something beautiful and damaged. I want to write songs for the people — to give them new songs to sing in the pub\, after they’ve finished Delilah.’ Healed from the end of his last relationship\, Corey has since found love again. Alongside the sadness\, the album also holds space for songs that don’t deny the damage — but still dare to open the door once more. Ultimately\, these songs are about storytelling as catharsis: shared pain\, nostalgia\, healing — and the hope that quietly emerges in the aftermath.

SUMMARY:Metronome: Dublin Modular
DESCRIPTION:Folding Waves & Genevieve Howard \nTadhg Kinsella\nSonia Killmann  \nAn evening where modular and hardware electronics fuse with acoustic instrumentation and immersive digital art. Curated as a celebration of queer identity\, experimentation\, and collaboration\, this event brings together some of Ireland’s most exciting electro-acoustic artists. Expect performances to blur genres\, sounds and worlds. A vibrant snapshot of Ireland’s evolving electronic music landscape and grassroots communities. \nFolding Waves is an international award-winning creative audio studio based in Dublin. Comprising a small team of sound designers\, composers and mix engineers\, united by their shared enthusiasm for the symbiotic relationship between sound and moving image. \nBorne from their collaboration for ICADs Reverb event (part of Irish Design Week 2025)\, Folding Waves will be performing alongside multidisciplinary artist\, designer and musician Genevieve Howard – live processing her spontaneous harp gestures through a Eurorack modular synthesiser. \nThis\, with accompaniment from Folding Waves’ own Mark Bergin on heavily effected Banjo\, creates a sonically rich\, and texturally dense improvisational soundscape – harkening back to Ireland’s cultural music tradition through a distinctly modernist lens. \nTadhg Kinsella is a queer Dublin-based sound artist\, classically trained percussionist\, and composer whose work blends acoustic performance with experimental electronic practices.\nSpecialising in modular synthesis\, haptic sound devices\, and percussion elements. Tadhg’s practice spans contemporary classical music\, sound art\, and immersive installation. Their work explores the meeting point of sound\, technology\, and urban space\, often drawing on lived experiences; queer identity\, disability and grief to shape compositional and performative approaches. Deeply engaged in Ireland’s contemporary/experimental arts through grassroots\, queer & disability communities. \nTadhg’s compositions have recently been performed and exhibited in Berlin\, Bristol\, Romania and Stockholm\, with past performances at international masterclasses and concert halls across the United States\, Colombia\, and Europe. In Ireland\, their work has been presented at Project Arts Centre\, the RHA Gallery\, Smock Alley Theatre\, and IMRO for NMDX. \nSonia Killmann is an international saxophone player and electronic musician. They have performed across the UK and Europe and are collaborating closely with Cryptic Glasgow as a Cryptic artist\, working in immersive installations and audiovisual performance. Sonia’s work treads the boundaries between the familiar and the unfamiliar by merging organic and synthetic sound worlds. Sonia has been exploring Pauline Oliveros’ Deep Listening concepts through circular breathing and adapting environments in the context of live performance. \nPresented by NCH

Not one to sit on the fence\, Steve firmly wears both his heart & mind on his sleeve\, delivering forceful versed commentary by the page full. Originally performing in the mid 90’s as support to Irish writer ‘Pat Ingoldsby’. It was early 2023\, when Steve returned after a far too long hiatus. Since then\, he has gone on to read & perform at The International Literary Festival\, The Dublin Arts & Human Rights Festival\, The Bram Stoker Festival\, Culture Nights\, Craicly Stories\, and curate & host The Write Stuff gatherings at Chapters Bookstore. \nTwo Prong – John Fleming and Niall Toner Jr of The Prongs Dubliners John Fleming and Niall Toner Jr have been friends since their teenage years.

This show is a rare opportunity to catch The Prongs in their special\, intimate two-man format (Two-Prong). Away from the bombast of their full six-piece band iteration\, Fleming and Toner will perform a curated menu of their most sharply Dublin-infused work along with readings from The Now Now Express novel from which The Prongs first crawled as fictional entities. Two-Prong promises a Telecaster/microphone/backing film projection performance worthy of the James Joyce-linked North Great Georges Street venue hosting this extraordinary evening with The Write Stuff.

SUMMARY:Singular Artists presents Have Mercy
DESCRIPTION:Blending the raw emotion of early emo with the weight and clarity of modern rock\, Have Mercy has established a sound that is distinctly their own. Across six studio albums\, the band has demonstrated both artistic growth and unwavering dedication to their craft. \nTheir journey has been marked by both triumph and adversity. A period of instability saw the lineup shift\, but through sobriety\, personal growth\, and renewed purpose\, the core members – Brian Swindle\, Nick Woolford\, Andrew Johnson\, and Steve Wootteon\, reunited in Baltimore\, Maryland\, revitalizing the band with a renewed sense of direction. \nTheir latest album\, the loneliest place I’ve ever been (Rude Records)\, is a powerful and introspective release. Balancing dark\, emotionally driven lyricism with infectious hooks\, the record reflects a pivotal chapter in Swindle’s journey toward sobriety. “It’s the record we always wanted to make\, dark yet hopeful\, polished yet imperfect.” \nWith a renewed lineup and creative energy\, Have Mercy has returned to the global stage\, continuing to solidify their reputation as a compelling and unmissable live act.

SUMMARY:Culture Wars
DESCRIPTION:Culture Wars is an Austin – bred\, Los Angeles – based alternative powerhouse bridging the gap between ’90s guitar grit and the cinematic polish of modern pop. Driven by “song – first” authenticity\, the band rejects the hyper – digitized landscape of modern rock in favor of real instruments and collective chemistry. Their highly anticipated debut album\, Don’t Speak (arriving April 10th)\, delivers a high – octane\, genre – blending sound that fuses surf – rock pulses and ’80s synth textures into arena – ready anthems. With nine tracks from the album already amassing millions of streams\, their one million monthly listeners are primed for the full project’s release. \nSince their 2021 EP teche\, Culture Wars has maintained an explosive upward trajectory as a formidable self – managed unit. Their relentless passion earned them coveted opening slots for global giants like Maroon 5 and LANY\, momentum they have since converted into a powerhouse headline presence. Having already sold out iconic venues in New York City\, Los Angeles\, and Lon don\, the band enters this album cycle as a proven global draw\, ready to lead the next generation of guitar – driven alternative music.

SUMMARY:MELATON
DESCRIPTION:In the summer of 1997 a group of Dublin school friends came together to form a band inspired by the music that had been soundtracking their teenage years. \nAlthough\, why Jonathan Black\, Andrew Brennan\, Declan Garvey and Anthony Mooney – who were inspired to make music by Radiohead\, Smashing Pumpkins and Jeff Buckley chose the band name ‘Purple Haze’ – remains a mystery to this day. \nShortly after forming – a much-needed change of name and lead singer occurred and Melaton was born. \nLed by singer and multi-instrumentalist Luke Slott\, the five friends quickly realised that they could write their own songs and by 2001 were the centre of a major label bidding war\, with the band eventually signing to Sony UK. Much to the delight of the band members’ parents\, the bidding war coincided with the lead up to their final school exams\, with the Sony deal signed in May 2001\, weeks before their leaving certificate. \nShortly after www.melaton.ie was set up and a CD was promised to anyone who logged on that year. “We initially said we would do 2\,000 of them and we thought that would do us for the year\,” Luke remembers\, “but it ended up we had requests for over 7\,000. And we really did make them and send them all out.” \nMelaton went on to release two more EPs – ‘Falling Star’ and ‘Still Water’ and toured extensively throughout the UK and Ireland as well as playing support to Ian Brown\, Elbow and JJ72. At the time their sound was as “…early U2 shot through with the haunting impact that first made us treasure Jeff Buckley. It’s the complex\, ethereal grace of Radiohead with none of the emotional distance.” \nStints with producer Stephen Street (The Smiths\, Blur) at Townhouse Studios in London and with U2 engineer Richard Rainey at St. Catherine’s Court in Bath (the site of the fabled OK Computer recordings) failed to yield the more commercial sound being sought by the record label. Pressure mounted to write more radio friendly singles and by early 2004 Melaton had collapsed under the weight of corporate expectations and the compromising of their creative process. \nAsked why the band chose Sony UK’s offer above any others\, Andrew Brennan says\, “I think they were the only label that weren’t insisting we had to move to London”. \nOver twenty years later\, Melaton are delighted to announce that they have reformed to play a show in Dublin’s Whelan’s on 26th June 2026 in aid of the amazing work done by Focus Ireland.

SUMMARY:Without Willow

SUMMARY:SUPERCHUNK
DESCRIPTION:‘90s’ Indie rock innovators Superchunk play Button Factory on Saturday the 27th of June – their first Irish show in 25 years. \n\nAfter almost four decades\, the North Carolina indie rock stalwarts remain one of those rare bands where the consensus\, amongst both critics and longtime fans\, is that their recent material rivals their beloved catalog—no small feat when that catalog includes classic indie albums like 1991’s No Pocky for Kitty and 1994’s Foolish\, and indelible garage-punk anthems like “Slack Motherfucker” and “Hyper Enough.” – SPIN Magazine \n  \n“Old habits die hard. “No Hope” applies Superchunk’s lifelong commitment to punk and indie-rock to the present moment: “Here we are singing ‘no hope\, hope\, no hope\, no hope\,’” declares Mac McCaughan\, Superchunk’s founder and leader since 1989\,” New York Times

SUMMARY:STIPE: A TRIBUTE TO R.E.M.
DESCRIPTION:R.E.M. formed in 1980\, in Athens\, Georgia and by the mid-nineties earned the tagline ‘the biggest band on the planet’ from the music press. \nThey pioneered the alternative rock scene with relentless touring and a distinctive sound and entered the 90s mainstream without compromising their artistic vision. They remain as relevant today as ever. \nTheir music is instantly recognisable: ringing guitar lines\, tasteful and clinical drumming\, melodic bass\, and sublime harmonies coupled with poetic (and political) lead vocals. \nContinuing as a trio after the departure of drummer Bill Berry in 1997\, R.E.M. broke up in September 2011\, just as they had started: as friends. They have ruled out ever re-forming. \nR.E.M. by Stipe\, the Definitive Tribute reflect the core of R.E.M.: four highly-experienced musicians who embody Berry\, Buck\, Mills and Stipe\, capturing the presence and performances of the band. \nAs huge fans of the band they are committed to holding true to the sound and overall aesthetic of R.E.M.\, so that fans\, old and new\, can experience the magic of hearing these songs played live with care\, conviction\, and affection. \nThey are joined on stage\, as R.E.M. were\, by additional musicians to help bring album tracks to life on stage. Each set-list is different\, but every show celebrates this timeless music for fans of R.E.M. \nHere is just a sample of what fans say about R.E.M. by Stipe\, the Definitive Tribute: \nIf you miss R.E.M. (or if you never saw them live) then Stipe are the next best thing to R.E.M. being back on tour.

SUMMARY:Stephen Wilson Jr.
DESCRIPTION:Stephen Wilson Jr. has recently exploded from critical darling to rising star\, earning a CMA Award nomination for New Artist of the Year and performing on the broadcast twice. Following his critically-acclaimed debut double album ‘søn of dad’\, which hit #1 on the iTunes country album chart\, he recently released his new single “Gary\,” which he premiered on Jimmy Kimmel Live!\, and is currently spinning on country radio with 75 first week station adds. \nStephen Wilson Jr.’s journey from the hollers of southern Indiana to Nashville\, Tenn. has been a winding road that’s taken many detours: He’s been an Indiana State Golden Gloves boxing championship finalist\, a scientist\, and a lead guitarist and songwriter in an indie rock band. In 2016\, he ditched his laboratory 9-to-5 and signed a publishing deal with BMG Nashville where his alchemic songcraft immediately made waves\, leading to cuts from Caitlyn Smith\, Old Dominion\, Tim McGraw\, Sixpence None the Richer\, Leigh Nash and more. 2023 proved to be Wilson Jr. ‘s breakthrough year\, signing with Big Loud Records and releasing his debut double album søn of dad: a triumphant\, genre-spanning set of 22 songs dedicated to his late father and given to the world on the five-year anniversary of his passing. \nThe album was named the No. 1 album of 2023 by Holler who called it “a record for the ages\,” and earned a spot as one of the best albums of the year from Whiskey Riff\, Wide Open Country and Rolling Stone. In 2024\, he made his network television debut on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers\, followed by performances on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’s #LateShowMeMusic series and Later…with Jools Holland. Ahead of the one-year anniversary of søn of dad\, Wilson Jr. was also profiled in an extensive feature for CBS Saturday Morning. \nIn 2025\, Wilson Jr. released a deluxe edition of his debut album that featured a moving interpretation of “Stand By Me” that has been streamed tens of millions of times\, and in April\, he performed the national anthem live during the nationally televised broadcast of the 2025 NFL Draft. He also co-wrote and collaborated with Shaboozey on “Took A Walk\,” which was featured in the critically-acclaimed film The Long Walk based on Stephen King’s novel. Last November\, he earned his first CMA Award nomination for New Artist of the Year and played twice on the broadcast – a moving performance of his collaboration with Shaboozey and a star-making rendition of “Stand By Me.”

SUMMARY:Chezile
DESCRIPTION:Born in Albuquerque and raised in a family of Mexican regional musicians\, Alejandro Sanchez\, better known as Chezile\, has experienced a meteoric rise over the past few years. His 2023 psych-pop single ‘Beanie’ exploded on TikTok\, earning more than 1.6 million monthly listeners in under two months and transforming his life almost overnight. At the time\, Sanchez was living out of his car in Los Angeles; within weeks he was fielding calls from record labels and building a rapidly growing global fanbase. \nNow based in San Diego\, the multi-instrumentalist has continued to carve out a distinctive sound that blends dreamy\, reverberated guitar with a sentimental strain of indie rock. His music creates a hazy\, introspective world that has resonated deeply with listeners online and beyond. \nFollowing the melancholic introspection of his previous EP 47\, Chezile’s newer material turns inward in a different way\, drawing on childhood memories of skateboarding through the deserts of New Mexico and reflecting on how to stay grounded while navigating sudden success. The result is a body of work that balances vulnerability with warmth\, pairing intimate storytelling with immersive sonic textures.

SUMMARY:Wet Leg
DESCRIPTION:Touring all over the world\, Wet Leg developed into a taut\, caustic live operation that made good on their debut album’s success: #1 chart placements at home and abroad\, three GRAMMYs\, two Brits and over half a billion streams. \nWet Leg – the Isle of Wight five-piece founded by Rhian Teasdale and Hester Chambers – released their eagerly anticipated second album ‘moisturizer’ in July 2025. Joined by Ellis Durand (bass)\, Henry Holmes (drums)\, and Joshua Mobaraki (guitar\, synth)\, ‘moisturizer’ is fun and freaky and fabulous\, an unbridled display of the live muscle Wet Leg have built up over a few years of non-stop touring. Punchier\, prettier and more perverted where it counts\, ‘moisturizer’ is an album of manic love songs and well-timed kiss-offs\, delivered by a clan of the UK’s most beloved oddballs. \nIf success presents a fork in the road for any new band – to “go pop” or keep following your muse – Wet Leg emphatically chose the latter path – including working with Dan Carey again as their producer. In March 2024\, the band decamped to Southwold to write; living together\, working all day\, watching horror movies all night\, they soon locked into a new sense of symbiosis. Subsequently\, all five members of Wet Leg have writing credits on moisturizer – “We were just kind of having fun and exploring\,” says Chambers. “We focused on: Is this going to be fun to play live? It was very natural that we would write the second record together” adds Teasdale. ‘moisturizer’ is the band turning the dial up and delivering a record that is unapologetically bolder\, stronger and raunchier. \n\n

SUMMARY:Cian Ducrot
DESCRIPTION:Raised in Cork\, Cian was surrounded by music growing up and soon excelled himself\, learning piano\, classical guitar\, saxophone\, percussion\, drums\, violin and the flute. He studied at London’s Royal Academy of Music from the age of nine and soon felt split between his classical training and his desire to make pop music. He continued his studies while writing songs and posting on social media\, but his mind was made up following a successful songwriting camp in Los Angeles. \nThe deciding factor between the two worlds was the ability that a pop artist has to connect with their audience – and that remains a big aspect of his artistry to this day. He was far from an overnight success\, however\, often borrowing money\, busking\, surfing sofas and taking on random jobs to fund writing trips to London and LA. His first breakthrough on TikTok led to his debut EP Make Believe and he grew in stature with every release\, especially when ‘I’ll Be Waiting’ and ‘All For You’ completed his journey from pub gigs in Cork to the upper reaches of the charts. \nLittle Dreaming was released to widespread acclaim last August\, and saw Ducrot claimed his second Irish Number One album. The Dream Ship tour saw Ducrot play packed shows in London\, Manchester\, and Glasgow\, as well as Paris\, Brussels\, Berlin\, Copenhagen\, and Stockholm before closing with a sold-out show in Dublin’s 3Arena in December.

SUMMARY:NCH Landmarks: Paddy Casey
DESCRIPTION:In this occasional series\, leading Irish artists perform their landmark album and music from their career. \n​​​​​​​As part of the NCH Landmarks series at the National Concert Hall\, Paddy Casey returns to Dublin for a special night celebrating the albums that defined the early chapters of his career. This landmark performance will see Casey revisit Amen (So Be It) and Living in full; records that not only shaped his own musical journey but left a lasting imprint on Irish music. \nHaving been at the forefront of the Irish music scene since his multi-platinum selling debut album Amen (So Be It)\, Paddy Casey’s career has taken him all over the globe touring with acts like The Pretenders\, R.E.M\, Ian Brown\, Blondie and Tracy Chapman to name a few. Closer to home he has played all over Ireland\, including a sold out Dublin Castle\, RDS and a record-breaking week long run in The Olympia Theatre\, alongside special guest spots with U2\, Pearl Jam\, Bob Dylan and more. \nPaddy Casey’s hugely successful debut album Amen (So Be It) achieved many international highlights including tracks being featured in hit television shows such as ‘Dawson’s Creek’ and ‘Roswell’ alongside extensive American and European tours. Further establishing himself as one of the country’s most successful artists\, his second album Living went on to become one of the biggest ever selling albums in Ireland (approximately 15 times platinum in its first year) \nThis was followed by the release of Addicted To Company\, Part 1\, with this album seeing Paddy Casey continue to tour across America\, performing on The Late Show with David Letterman\, securing a week-long slot on MTV. After the release of this album Paddy Casey decided that it was time to part ways with his record label and go independent in order to let himself and his music veer off in any direction the wind carried them\, resulting in his first release The Secret Life Of and his last double album Turn This Ship Around a resounding success with both the albums reaching platinum status. \nPaddy is currently mixing and getting ready to release the first single from his (as yet unnamed) new album due out this summer. \nPresented by NCH
