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:D.K. Harrell
DESCRIPTION:Guitarist\, vocalist and songwriter D.K. Harrell\, one of the most formidable young stars of the current blues resurgence\, sounds like no one else on the scene today. With his stinging\, single-note string bending\, deep soul vocals\, and attention-grabbing original songs\, the 27-year-old Harrell\, a major draw at blues festivals around the world–is already in a league of his own. \nD.K. Harrell was born D’Kieran Harrell in Ruston\, Louisiana in 1998. He first heard B.B. King at age two and responded by singing along. He sang in his church choir as a boy while continuing to be drawn to the blues. Films like The Blues Brothers\, Cadillac Records and Ray made him eager to sing and play. He received his first guitar at 12\, and by 16 was writing his own songs. Initially inspired by B.B. King\, the youthful Harrell spent hours studying every video of King he could find\, learning not just King’s licks but ultimately his tone\, his finesse\, his stage craft\, and his band leadership skills. Harrell’s first paying gig was as an invited guest to the B.B. King Symposium in Indianola\, Mississippi–where he played “The Thrill Is Gone” on King’s iconic guitar\, Lucille–backed by members of King’s touring band. \nIn 2022 Harrell won the B.B. King Of The Blues Award for Preserving Traditional Blues Heritage from the Jus’ Blues Music Foundation. In addition to B.B. King\, Harrell fell under the spell of blues masters including Albert King\, Freddie King\, Elmore James\, Muddy Waters and others\, and made their styles part of his musical vocabulary. His debut album\, ‘The Right Man’\, was released on the Little Village label in 2023 to rave reviews and wildly excited fans. \nNow\, with his Alligator Records debut album\, ‘Talkin’ Heavy’\, D.K. Harrell cements his place among the leading voices of the new generation of blues players. This Blues Music Award-winning guitarist with a soul man’s voice and a well-earned reputation as a mesmerizing live performer delivers fresh\, emotion-packed blues informed by the tradition he loves and played with the foot-pounding fervor of a revival tent preacher.

SUMMARY:Steve Ray Ladson
DESCRIPTION:Steve Ray Ladson\, a multi-talented musician and songwriter from Hopkins\, South Carolina\, has emerged as one of the most compelling voices in Country music. Rising to national prominence following his standout performance on America’s Got Talent in July 2025\, Ladson captivated audiences and judges alike with his original composition “Back of My Truck\,” earning unanimous approval from all four judges and advancing to the next round. \nThe performance drew enthusiastic praise from the judging panel\, with Sofia Vergara declaring him her favorite music act of the season\, exclaiming “You guys were amazing\, I loved it!” Simon Cowell was equally impressed\, stating “Everything was\, like\, on point. I love the song\, I love you. I love the band.” Both Simon and Howie Mandel recognized the commercial potential of the song\, agreeing it had all the makings of a hit. \nLadson’s musical journey began in his teenage years performing in Gospel quartets\, where he developed his foundational skills and stage presence. His talent and dedication soon led to opportunities with nationally recognized acts\, including tours with Grammy nominee Robert Randolph and the Family Band and six time Grammy winners The Blind Boys of Alabama. These experiences exposed him to diverse musical traditions and helped shape his unique artistic vision. \nA true multi-instrumentalist\, Ladson has mastered an impressive array of ten instruments\, including guitar\, electric bass\, banjo\, keyboards\, drum kit\, and harmonica. This versatility allows him to create rich\, layered compositions and brings a distinctive depth to his live performances. His instrumental prowess is matched by his songwriting abilities\, with all of his material being original compositions drawn from his real-life experiences. \nLadson’s songwriting draws inspiration from blues and roots legends such as Robert Johnson and Sonny Boy Williamson\, while incorporating elements from his Southern upbringing. His music reflects his life in the South\, where riding trails with the “Chocolate Cowboys” and participating in rodeo and horse riding culture provide dominant themes for his creative endeavors. \n“Blackgrass Brothercana” – A New Genre \nPerhaps most notably\, Ladson is pioneering his own musical genre\, which he calls “Blackgrass Brothercana.” This innovative fusion combines bluegrass and country-Americana with elements of R&B\, hip hop\, rock\, and soul\, creating a sound that is both rooted in tradition and refreshingly contemporary. This genre-blending approach reflects his diverse musical background and his commitment to pushing creative boundaries.

SUMMARY:Imelda May – Raised on Songs & Stories
DESCRIPTION:After the sell-out success of her current tour\, Raised on Songs & Stories\, globally revered Irish artist Imelda May has announced additional summer dates. She returns to Dublin’s Vicar Street on June 9th and 10th. \nThis unique series of intimate evenings will feature new stripped back versions of her wide discography and favourite songs\, integrated with her famed poetry & storytelling. \nImelda says: “I’m coming to you soon! 18 nights of an Irish tour. It’ll be an evening of songs\, poems\, stories\, joy and beauty. This idea evolved naturally over the last couple of years. You see\, when I write\, produce and release an album I get so excited to perform the songs live that I fizz up and plan and rehearse gigs with such enthusiasm that I’m like a little thrilled whirlwind but too often I leave room for little else. I work out which songs will flow best into another to create the vibe desired that I sometimes don’t leave much space for the unknown which is where a different magic lies. This space is the place where I exist and love most\, it’s where I write and create. So it feels right to stay there a while. To have a gig where someone might ask for a song I haven’t visited in a while and I think ‘yeah let’s give it a go’\, or where I can tell you the stories behind the songs and how I ended up working with some of the people I’ve worked with so far. Not a ‘show’ this will be a shared night of what music\, art\, connection and creativity means to me\, with you.”

DESCRIPTION:LA-based duo LANY have announced their Soft World tour will land in Dublin at 3Olympia Theatre on Thursday 4th June 2026. \n\n\nPaul Klein (lead-singer & songwriter) had just finished a workout at his local gym last summer when his and LANY’s world was (for a brief moment\, quite literally) flipped upside down. Only a couple miles from where he lives in Hollywood\, he hopped on his vespa scooter to head home and a minute later was crossing an intersection when a car appeared from nowhere. He squeezed the brakes\, braced for impact and at the last second “let go”. He woke up in an ambulance. \n“The first thought I had when I woke up was that God loves me. That I’m still here for a reason and I have a purpose.” He doesn’t know how much time passed on the pavement. He doesn’t know who called the ambulance. He doesn’t know how long it took them to arrive. He does know how fortunate he is to be alive. “I’m so grateful to be alive\, but I hope there are some parts of me that died on the road that day\,” he says. “I was holding onto some things that I didn’t need to be. Resentment. Unforgiveness. I was becoming pretty bitter and callous — hard of heart.” \nIt’s poetic then that the band’s new album\, titled “Soft”\, addresses his attempts to fight against that internal hardness — to stay soft of the inside\, while simultaneously fighting to rehabilitate an even stronger\, harder exterior to protect that same vulnerability and softness within. \nThe LA-based duo (comprised of Klein and his bandmate/ best friend Jake Goss) were less than two weeks away from the Australian leg of their “a beautiful blur” world tour when the accident happened. Having already finished the European\, North American and Latin American legs\, the band were spending the first weeks of summer at home\, recharging before getting back on the road. Nobody could’ve imagined how quickly everything would change. What is perhaps more conceivable is how catalyzing a moments like this would be for Klein\, both personally and creatively. Thematically and visually “Soft” exists in tension — an intentional contrast of the hard and soft. Tangible\, literal\, physical hardness juxtaposed with metaphorical\, relational (and\, at times too\, physical) softness. The cover itself depicts the perfect visual of that dichotomy: a lamb\, representative of one’s own softness\, in the wounded and bandaged arms of the one that has fought for and protected it. “It’s so easy to let the challenges of the world harden you\,” Klein says. “The hardest thing to do is to fight against it — to stay soft. To protect your softness and the things that you love.” \nSonically\, the album explores these same tensions — much of the softness and vulnerability of lyric that has defined LANY’s acclaimed career\, now with a harder\, braver edge to the production. Where familiar listeners might’ve expected to encounter some more predictable or safer choices\, LANY has seriously matured and evolved. The soft piano ballads west-coast-indie guitars and bedroom pop sonics that LANY helped create and popularize aren’t entirely abandoned\, but their sound and Klein’s writing has expanded. The list of brave choices on “Soft” begins with Klein’s willingness to start writing mere weeks after waking up in the ambulance. It continues with the band’s decision to produce the album entirely with Tommy King\, who has a more abstract\, indie production background / history (Bon Iver\, Dijon\, Vampire Weekend\, Haim) and ends with a sonic-identity that is simultaneously incredibly fresh and peculiarly familiar (another dichotomy that defines the record and has come to define the band). \nNowhere is this seen more than lead-single “Know You Naked”. Lyrically a vulnerable love-letter\, highlighted by Klein’s vocal range and thoughtful extra touches; the tension and contrast is found in an almost-industrial\, dissonant guitar-intro (that continues to persist below the surface)\, harsh synth stabs\, punchy snare hits and momentary “glitchy” static-like sounds. There’s also a particular moment on the album’s title track and opener “Soft” that sets the scene and prepares the audience for what’s ahead. It’s only one and a half minutes into the album\, but is the first time the initial “softness” of the record is broken and it kickstarts the record into life — a daring\, crystalizing early highlight. \nIn more than a few of the tracks\, the record could more aptly even be described as R&B. Maybe that’s where some of the familiarity stems from… The band’s origins and early works felt more “80s”\, but were always very R&B-adjacent. The song “Good Parts” feels like it drew inspiration from the “late-90’s / Y2K” in that way — you can just imagine a big-budget music video played 40x a day\, every day\, on MTV to accompany such an enormous track. This feeling is identified most strongly in the unstoppable album closer “Last Forever” though — an astonishingly raw and honest\, soul-bearing ballad that existing fans and new listeners will be desperate to have on loop (or\, dare-say\, to last forever). While it pushes sonic and thematic boundaries\, it still feels a lot like LANY\, treading that tightrope of tension the band thrive on. \nWith “Soft” dropping this Fall\, the band have spent the latter parts of 2024 and early 2025 relentlessly working on the record\, but have found time outside of the studio too. Earlier this year they played two special nights with The National Symphony Orchestra at The Kennedy Center in DC before headlining Seoul Jazz Festival in Korea in May. LANY have always brought so much of the energy from their live shows to their recorded works and it’s easy to see that influence on “Soft”. While the new record was incubated in the immediate aftermath of the accident — writing and production beginning within just a couple of weeks — the band were amazingly back on stage in Europe to finish their world tour just two months after the crash\, albeit with Klein on a crutch. \nThat tour canvased the globe; highlights of the 80+ show / 300\,000+ ticket run including a first-ever sold out stadium in Manila\, a second time headlining The Forum locally in LA\, and festival headline slots at the iconic Summer Sonic Festivals in Tokyo and Osaka. Nominated for “Best Pop Tour” by Pollstar\, the band’s energetic\, entrancing\, and ever-evolving live show continues to captivate fans on multiple continents.

SUMMARY:SILK
DESCRIPTION:‘Auralux’ is the highly anticipated debut mini-album from Irish shoegazers\, Silk. Michael Smyth\, songwriter/guitarist of the acclaimed but now defunct band Virgins\, is the sole contributor to the project. Taking on responsibilities for all the songwriting\, performance and recording\, gives the project intense personal meaning for Michael. Michael says\, ‘There is no beauty in perfection\, it feels fake and manufactured to me. I want the record to feel real\, so this is the sound of visceral self-expression.’ 2025 saw the release of three highly successful singles and Irish tours\, including festival appearances at GazeFest supporting Whitelands and Sweet Sweet Noise. Lead single of the album ‘Clementine’ released earlier this year\, which found Silk push into darker and more abrasive territory\, leaning hard into texture and density. ‘Auralux’ covers a wide range of sonic territory over its 6 tracks; celestial and euphoric guitars dove tail with impossibly thick crushing fuzz\, while cascading reverse reverbs melt into one another. Lyrically the mini-album moves between themes of mortality\, memory\, loss\, love and time. Auralux is catharsis via volume and reverb. ‘Auralux’\, is released May 7th by Blowtorch Records (IRE/vinyl) and Shoredive Records (UK/CD).

DESCRIPTION:Seneca Valley High School classmates Neil Fallon (vocals)\, Tim Sult (guitar)\, Dan Maines (bass)\, and Jean-Paul Gaster (drums) share an unshakeable musical and personal bond now three decades strong. Shaped by the same region which birthed Bad Brains\, Minor Threat\, and Rites Of Spring\, CLUTCH crafts hyper-literate and libertine jams informed by hardcore fury and fuzzy\, athletic\, stoner rock. \nA worldwide cabal of fans and critics cherish the band’s dense and diverse catalog of underground classics\, released through major labels\, indies\, and since 2009\, Clutch’s own Weathermaker imprint. Sunrise On Slaughter Beach\, the band’s thirteenth studio album\, is a slamming summary of everything that makes the band great and another giant leap forward into career longevity.

SUMMARY:DUENDITA
DESCRIPTION:Foggy Notions presents the Irish debut of duendita \nWhat the press is saying about duendita: \n“fragility meets pugnacity” The New York Times \n“warm soul\, and great emotional depth.” Pitchfork \n“a voice that seems to defy the laws of this realm” Teen Vogue \n“inspiring the type of warm\, calming introspection that makes you appreciate everything around you” Alternative Press \n“duendita crafts music that heals” The FADER a strong desire to survive \nNew York City’s duendita released a strong desire to survive via 10k in April 2025. The 10-track project embeds the listener into duendita’s spellbinding realm and follows the lauded EP the mind is a miracle released in 2024. \na strong desire to survive was born from duendita’s transformative experience during their first extended trip to Berlin where they first met longtime collaborators Noah Becker and Anton Remy. “We would jam all the time at Baketown\, our recording studio and art space in Schoenberg. It was an era where I’d write on their beats or at the piano\, and I couldn’t stop writing about the pain\,” they share\, “all these bangers came out about how badly I wanted to live and overcome it all.” a strong desire to survive includes the previously shared track “baby teeth\,” which includes a sample of 9 vocalists\, singing in harmony as a choir – all recorded in duendita’s bedroom\, along with the track “cutie.” The upcoming project’s visual direction is equally as poignant as its musical heart. duendita enlisted friend and artist Kiyomi Taylor to create the cover art\, which features an image of a deep-sea creature who has adapted to survive in the most grotesque way. “She’s grown long nails\, gills\, scales\, and killer teeth\, just to survive. At first glance\, the man in the image looks like her next meal\, but in reality\, she wishes she could hold someone without scratching or hurting them\,” duendita explains. “This image mirrors the themes of the project – survival\, transformation\, and the struggle to love and be loved.” \nduendita is a band from Queens\, New York. They write and produce their own music\, imbuing it with a reverence for their ancestry\, community\, and faith. Anchored by achy\, bass-coated tones and mix of jazz\, piano\, soul and R&B\, duendita’s music is evocative of the complexities and sentimentality of the human experience. Flowing in various shapes and formations\, duendita is a living collaborative project made with family and friends across mediums and cities.

SUMMARY:Singular Artists presents Goldlink
DESCRIPTION:Singular Artists presents Goldlink – 10th Anniversary of ‘And After That We Didn’t Talk’ \nSunday\, May 3rd 2026 \nThere wasn’t exactly a place in the landscape for an artist like GoldLink-until GoldLink made one. Raised in and around Washington\, D.C.\, the rapper (born D’Anthony Carlos in 1993) started writing music in his late teens\, staking out an uncharted space at the intersection of hip-hop\, house\, electronic music\, and R&B-a colourful\, head-spinning sound that made him stand out instantly. In 2014\, he released his debut mixtape\, The God Complex; the next year\, he made the XXL Freshman Class. Buoyed by a mentoring credit from Def Jam co-founder Rick Rubin\, And After That\, We Didn’t Talk followed in 2015\, striking a balance between narrative grit and a sparkling\, effervescent sound. \nIn 2017\, he released At What Cost\, featuring the Grammy-nominated “Crew.” Alongside MCs and producers like Anderson .Paak\, KAYTRANADA\, Flume\, and Chance the Rapper\, GoldLink’s sound represents an ever-broadening sense of what hip-hop and dance music can do\, imagining a borderless club world where affiliations of genre and region bow to the music’s overall feel: not rap\, not electronic\, but what GoldLink has playfully called “future bounce” —and he’s making it right now.

SUMMARY:Robert Finley
DESCRIPTION:On the back-end of his incredible performance on BBC’s Later With Jools Holland this month\, Louisiana soul-blues artist Robert Finley is announcing more headline shows in France\, Netherlands and Germany for 2026. The tour follows his critically acclaimed album Hallelujah! Don’t Let The Devil Fool Ya\, which was released earlier this year via Easy Eye Sound. \nFinley kicks off the fourteen date run of shows in Tourcoing\, France on February 24th and then makes his way to the Netherlands for four shows followed by four more shows in Germany ending in Berlin on March 12th. Tickets for all shows go on sale this Friday. Visit (XXXXX) for tickets. \nFinley’s new album Hallelujah! Don’t Let The Devil Fool Ya received global acclaim\, with SPIN declaring the artist “a master musician and entertainer – only gets better with time\,” and UNCUT noting: “Approaching his eighth decade … Finley’s work here is clearly just getting started.” \nThe album — produced by longtime collaborator Dan Auerbach at his Easy Eye Sound studio in Nashville — features bold\, joy-driven gospel-soul statements like “I Wanna Thank You\,” and was recorded in the spirit of live improvisation with Finley and his band. Finley now brings his unmissable live show across Europe. \n— — — — \nAfter a lifetime of hard work\, Robert Finley has established himself as one of today’s preeminent spokesmen of the blues. Born and raised in the small town of Bernice\, LA\, Finley spent decades playing music as a street performer and leader of the gospel group Brother Finley and the Gospel Sisters before making his long overdue recording debut at the young age of 62 with 2016’s Age Don’t Mean A Thing. The album captured the attention of Easy Eye Sound founder Dan Auerbach\, beginning a long collaborative relationship that has included 2017’s Goin’ Platinum\, 2021’s autobiographical Sharecropper’s Son\, and 2023’s critically acclaimed Black Bayou. An 11-track tour de force that coalesces southern soul\, jazz\, folk\, blues\, rock ‘n’ roll and more into a raw\, thundering tribute to Finley’s home state of Louisiana\, the latter album was met by ecstatic applause from leading publications around the world spanning SPIN\, The FADER\, No Depression\, American Songwriter\, Paste\, Uncut\, and more with MOJO simply declaring in a five-starred rave\, “Black Bayou is surely the album Finley was put on Earth to create\, filled with stories only he could tell.” \nAn electrifying performer known for his soulful swagger and gritty vocal power\, Finley has since proven a hugely popular international live act with sold-out headline tours\, countless festival appearances\, shows alongside The Black Keys\, and a leading role in Auerbach’s Easy Eye Sound Revue. Finley has also made a number of high-profile network TV appearances\, including the 2019 season of NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” – where he eventually made it to the semi-finals – and CBS Saturday Morning. Having overcome great adversity – including losing his sight in his 60s – Robert Finley is now justly recognized the world over as a singular storyteller and one of the last great bluesmen of the modern era\, a true living legend with still more magic to come.
