SUMMARY:Gene
DESCRIPTION:Indie-rock stars Gene have announced five new tour dates after their initial run of comeback dates all sold-out in less than ten minutes\, with their Dublin return announced for the 3Olympia Theatre\, Dublin on 25th March 2026. \nWith Gene’s iconic and much-loved debut album Olympian celebrating its 30th birthday this year\, the upcoming shows will be Gene’s first since their farewell concert at the London Astoria in December 2004\, and will feature Gene’s classic line-up of Martin Rossiter (vocals)\, Matt James (drums)\, Steve Mason (guitars) and Kevin Miles (bass). \nAfter being approached late last year about the possibility of playing again as Gene by Creation Records founder Alan McGee and Toura Toura’s Kevin Fitzgerald\, who co-manage the likes of Sleeper\, Huey Morgan and Alabama 3\, the four band members only met for the first time in December The speed at which things have progressed since is testament to the group’s enduring passion and immediate reconnection. \n“All four of us met up\, probably for the first time since our last gig\, and it immediately felt just like it had always been\,” explains Matt James. “We were always very self-depreciating as a group and the banter quickly kicked back in. After a few quips barked across the pub table we relaxed and we all laughed a lot. Straightaway it felt like we were a band again. We’ve just to make sure we can do it musically now too.” \nGene formed in 1993 and made their debut with the single ‘For The Dead’ the following year on the indie label Costermonger\, which was founded especially for the release by the journalists and authors Keith Cameron and Roy Wilkinson. Limited to 1994 copies\, the seven-inch sold out in two days. \nThe band’s debut album\, Olympian\, followed on 20 March 1995 and quickly became one of the era’s best and most appreciated records – including singles ‘Sleep Well Tonight’\, ‘Haunted By You’ and the stately title track – as it reached the UK Top 10. \nOlympian’s enduring and superior status was recognised when NME took the rare step of revising its opinion of the record\, overriding its initial on release review to praise the record in 2011 as they declared the album possessed “a strong and commanding soul.” Further confirmation of this beloved status was demonstrated by the outpouring Gene received when Martin Rossiter and Matt James revisited the album for one Tim Burgess’s Twitter Listening Parties during the 2020 lockdown. Olympian was then included in Burgess’ hardback book which celebrated the best of those global communal listening sessions. \nDemonstrating the depth of Gene’s artistic vision\, Olympian was followed in 1996 by rarities and b-side collection To The See The Lights\, which became an immediate fan favourite\, before their second full album\, Drawn To The Deep End\, also went straight into the Top 10 in 1997\, boasting the hits ‘Fighting Fit’\, ‘We Could Be Kings’\, ‘Where Are They Now?’ and ‘Speak To Me Someone’. \nWith 1999’s more muscular Revelations ably capturing the fin de siècle uncertainty and hope in the air at the time\, Gene initially ended on the creative high of 2002 album Libertine which Q Magazine praised for its “grace and guile” as the album gained widespread critical acclaim. \nReflecting the enduring live reputation the band enjoyed throughout their career – both for their shows and as festival favourites – Gene’s then final gig took place at the London Astoria on 16 December 2004 and saw the band go out at the peak of their powers. \nIn their absence\, Gene’s influence has still been keenly felt\, earning continued plays on radio stations including BBC 6 Music and Absolute and enjoying growing streaming numbers. \nFollowing public demand and eye-watering second-hand prices for the originals\, the group’s entire back catalogue was re-pressed on vinyl in 2020 alongside the release of new best of collection Yours For The Taking. Using this opportunity to reappraise Gene’s musical legacy\, Mojo concluded\, “the urbane\, eloquent outsiders… oozed class.” \nWhile Olympian’s 30th birthday year adds a great sense of occasion for the band and fans alike\, the four-piece is keen to ensure the upcoming shows show will be a celebration of everything Gene stood for. \n“Olympian’s anniversary is a good reason for doing it\, but we’re looking forward to playing songs from all of our career\,” says James. “It is going to be a lot fun playing as Gene again.”

SUMMARY:Remy Bond
DESCRIPTION:Emerging as an entrancing pop presence and bona fide artist-to-watch\, singer\, songwriter\, and creative visionary\, Remy Bond\, has already landed on Amazon Music’s 2025 Indie Artist to Watch\, Billboard’s 21 Under 21 list\, People Magazine’s Spring 2025 Emerging Artists list\, Zane Lowe’s 25 for ‘25 list for Apple Music\, and InStyle’s 2025 Musicians to Watch list. Most recently\, Rolling Stone also called out Remy as an “Artist You Need To Know\,” praising “her sound offers nostalgia and a breath of fresh air at the same time.” \nFascinated by the washed-up beauty of places like Atlantic City\, Las Vegas\, and Golden Age Hollywood — where she often retreats to write — Remy seamlessly weaves together a lifelong love for nostalgia with modern sonic flourishes and lyrics\, filtering it all through her unique perspective and experiences. The New York City-raised artist’s rise began with her June 2024 single “Summer Song\,” which instantly connected with audiences around the globe\, amassing more than 25 million streams and over 300\,000 social media creates. Most recently\, she released her single\, “No One”. First teased on TikTok\, “No One” quickly became a longtime fan favorite and one of Remy’s most anticipated releases.
