SUMMARY:Gurriers
DESCRIPTION:Following the announcement of their sophomore album ‘Nobody’s Coming To Save You’\, Dublin alternative rock group GURRIERS have announced their biggest homecoming show to date at Dublin’s 3Olympia Theatre on Sunday\, 1st November 2026.\nWith support from Child Of Prague \nTickets priced from €30 including booking fee & €2 restoration levy on sale now with Ticketmaster Ireland \nThe first single and title track ‘Nobody’s Coming To Save You’ is OUT NOW! WATCH THE MUSIC VIDEO \nWhen Dublin’s Gurriers released 2024 debut album Come And See\, they underlined their status as a visceral\, unignorable new voice in the thriving Irish alternative scene. Having formed during the pandemic\, in the years since\, the original members – vocalist Dan Hoff\, guitarists Ben O’Neill and Mark MacCormack and drummer Pierce Callaghan – had carved out a steadily escalating reputation for bone-rattling\, mosh-ready live shows. Come And See pushed their lyrical chops and curious\, socially-exploratory outlook to the fore too\, platforming songs about digital angst and IRL terror in the modern world. \nIn the months following its release\, the milestones kept coming for the band: a slot on Later with Jools Holland; main stage performances in the Woodsies and Leftfield tents at Glastonbury; an arena support back in their hometown with Turnstile and with Kneecap at Wembley. With bassist Charlie McCarthy now fully settled into the throng\, bringing a fresh burst of enthusiasm having joined the band at the beginning of 2024 – sometime after their debut had been recorded and before it was released that September\, they found the new music they were starting to pen was innately reflective of this vast step up in their ante. \n“You write songs for the environment that you’ll hear them in\, so when we were playing small\, 250 capacity rooms then [we wrote] a sweaty punk record\,” Callaghan reflects of their debut. “But now\, playing bigger festival stages and supporting in arenas\, it changes how you approach songwriting. You’re thinking about what sort of environment these songs are gonna be heard in\, and how they’ll exist in that space.” \nGurriers’ superb second album might be called Nobody’s Coming To Save You\, then\, but it could easily be subtitled ‘harder\, better\, faster\, stronger’. Recorded at Donegal’s Attica Studios and Holy Mountain Studios in London with producers Mark Bowen of Idles and Loren Humphrey (Geese\, Cameron Winter)\, alongside engineer Chris Fullard (Idles\, Sunn O))) and world-renowned mixer John Congleton (St. Vincent\, Modest Mouse\, Swans)\, the crack team that readily assembled for LP2 speaks volumes of its quality from the off. This is Gurriers taking all the musical chemistry and smart\, interrogational worldview that made them great in the first place\, and souping it up to the next level. \n“I just felt like it needed to be bigger. I was watching loads of interviews with Butch Vig and different grunge bands\, and [they would talk about having] layers and layers of guitars; about things being huge and really 3D and just slapping you in the face\,” says O’Neill. “These songs are bombastic and larger than life a lot of the time\, so the production needed to match with that as well.” \nThey were\, clearly\, in safe hands. “I mean\, who’s going to understand the music we make more than someone in Idles\, the band we’re probably equated with the most?” laughs Callaghan. “Between Bowen and Loren\, their understanding of the scalability in terms of how to be bigger without getting away from the essence of it being abrasive and loud was incredible.” \nFrom the rattling tension of the title track’s opening moments that then give way to a cacophonous\, cathartic climax\, Nobody’s Coming To Save You takes this spirit of the sweaty basement venue and turns it stadium-sized. It’s not just loud\, but dynamic. ‘Shades’ takes shards of industrial\, angular guitar and sends them into a gnarly hardcore chorus\, while ‘Drones’ is a true pressure-cranking slow build with a drop destined to decimate every mosh pit they travel through. On ‘Pins’\, they explore a looser\, more melodic swagger that comes on like a grunge/ trip-hop hybrid\, whereas ‘Party Lines’ is pure insatiable dance-punk hedonism. If the band’s MO was to find a way to make the record “slap you in the face”\, then consider yourself smacked. \nAt the start of the writing process\, Hoff recalls finding a quote from activist Dan Savage\, spoken during the AIDS crisis. “He said: ‘We bury our friends in the morning\, we protest in the afternoon\, and we dance all night’\,” recalls the frontman. “Going into the album\, that felt like the feeling that the songs should have.” The spirit of protest and resistance rings throughout\, but crucially\, on album two\, Hoff has also learnt how to turn those feelings back on himself too. “This album does sound more personal to me\, but everything about it is political because what you wear\, how you act\, who you hang out with\, everything is in reaction to the system\,” he explains. \nHoff is a collector of phrases and ideas. He describes himself as “a sponge – and the other lads are the same; we’re always looking for inspiration”. Dig into the lyrics of Nobody’s Coming To Save You and you’ll find quotes and lines taken from sources as disparate as Samuel Beckett’s Waiting For Godot (‘Nothing Happens Twice’)\, Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek (‘Party Lines’) and Kurt Vonnegut (‘Nobody’s Coming To Save You’). The latter track\, amusingly\, started life in response to a particularly irksome review that criticised the band for “saying so many political things but having no answers”. “We’re a band\, we’re not a political party!” laughs Hoff. “So I used a Vonnegut quote\, and one from [American writer and activist] Rebecca Solnit – ‘Hope is an axe you can break down doors with’ – because I don’t have the answers\, but these two people might?” \nWithin the record\, there are some of the most overtly outward-looking tracks that Gurriers have laid to tape so far. ‘Party Lines’ was written as Hoff watched the war in Sudan escalate in horror. “There was so much killing that they could see the blood from satellite pictures and that really fucked me up a bit\,” he says. “It’s about the hypocrisy of governments that will help certain countries whilst arming other countries that will kill people in the same place\, which I think is insane.” Yet there are also more personal moments than ever\, exploring topics from his friends’ frustrations with the working day drudge (‘Waiting For Fisher’) to his own dislocation\, thousands of miles away from his partner and loved ones on a tour bus (‘I Wish I Was’). \n‘Crybaby’’s warped\, woozy look at the temptress of booze ends the album\, says Hoff\, with “a whimper” – a curious term\, but one that fits with Gurriers’ sharp\, sensitive take on punk. “It’s a question mark. You’re like\, ‘Damn\, that’s the way they ended it?’ It’s like watching the finale of The Sopranos and it cuts to black\,” laughs O’Neil \nThe ending might be amorphous\, but the journey to that place is as strong and confident as they come. With Nobody’s Coming To Save You\, Gurriers have sent their ambitions sky-high and come out swinging.

SUMMARY:Josiah and the Bonnevilles
DESCRIPTION:Josiah Leming has paid his dues. As a teenager from East Tennessee\, his devotion to music led him to hit the road\, where he lived in his car and played for anyone who would listen. That took him all the way to a major record deal when he was only nineteen. When that ended\, he refused to give up and became an indie artist\, relying solely on the music and his undeniable gift for crafting relatable songs that led to a devoted fan base he calls the Bonnevilles. He appreciates them so much that he includes them in his artist name. “They’re the reason I’m able to make music\,” he says. \n2024 saw Josiah and the Bonnevilles reaching new heights\, completing a headlining tour of thirty-three sold-out dates followed by a slew of international stops that proved his global following. He has become known for raw emotion and a profound connection to his audience. This newfound attention has led to much anticipation for his new album — and As Is lives up to the expectations. \n  \n“I knew I had a responsibility to try to become a better writer\, a better artist\,” he says. “One day that feels like a blessing\, and the next it feels pretty intimidating.” Instead of reproducing his popular sound from the self produced “Endurance”\, he decided to expand it. “I think it would have been hard to keep my excitement to go out on the road with another kind of acoustic record.” His tenth studio album finds him going more electric than ever before\, even as he unplugs from the digital world. “I feel like a grizzled old veteran at this point\,” he says\, even though he is only thirty-six. “I’m desiring quiet\, a work space away from the internet…I felt like it was important to pull back this last year and try to understand what’s on my heart.” What he found there resulted in an album focusing on joy\, sorrow\, and working-class issues that feel very of the moment in a time when so many Americans are struggling to make ends meet. \nLeming comes by his empathy for working people honestly. He’s one of nine siblings\, born and raised in Morristown\, Tennessee\, right in the heart of Appalachia. He taught himself piano when he was eight and was writing songs by thirteen. As a child he was intently aware of his community and intensely proud of his people\, something he thinks about even more in these trying times. “I look at my I look at my folks in East Tennessee and very few of them seem to be winning in this new world\,” Leming says. “Being a regular person\, working\, trying your best. I think that’s something to be proud of.” \nHis records have always been intensely personal. But on As Is he wanted to step away from being the main character and instead use vignettes to express essential truths he has learned. “I want anyone to be able to put it on and not think about me when they’re listening. I want them to be in the emotion.” Because of this he made a conscious choice to not include himself on the album cover. \nLeming chose ten tracks from ninety-six songs he has written over the last year and a half. As Is features the most co-writes he has ever recorded. “I love writing alone\, but I wanted to bring in some trusted partners on this one\,” he says. The resulting list features some of the most acclaimed songwriters working today. There’s Nashville powerhouse Natalie Hemby\, a two-time Grammy winner who has written for everyone from Lady Gaga to Miranda Lambert; Joel Little\, a Grammy winner who has written with Lorde\, Taylor Swift\, Noah Kahan\, and many others; Scott Harris\, best known for work he’s produced or written for artists such as Shawn Mendes\, Dua Lipa\, and The Chainsmokers; and others. \nTo help him find the sound he hoped to achieve\, Leming brought in Konrad Snyder as a co-producer. Snyder has engineered or produced some of the best work to come out of Nashville in the last decade\, including tracks by Kacey Musgraves\, Stephen Sanchez\, and Noah Kahan. “It was an amazing partnership with Konrad\,” Leming says. “I never had to touch a computer or a piece of gear; he’s a whiz with all that stuff. I’m usually so hands-on with my stuff\, switching between setting up\, tracking and editing but on this record I got to just perform the songs.” \nThe songs on As Is feature Leming’s vivid sense of place\, precise yet poetic lyrics\, and emotion that is always longingly expressed by his vulnerable vocals. This collection is more up-tempo than most of his work\, which is something Leming and Snyder strived to make happen on about half the songs. “I was thinking a lot about the energy\, of having a couple songs that can amp up people at live shows\,” he says. \nThis power is especially apparent on songs like opening track “Good Boy”\, which boils toward a rousing breakdown\, “Carolina Heart”\, a tune Leming calls “less existential and my attempt at a feel-good song\,“ and “Going Gone”\, a nostalgic track about the passage of time. “Mountain Girl” is a foot-tapping harmonica-led tribute to Appalachian women. There’s the jaunty rock of “Redline”\, and a song called “One Day at a Time” that is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with addiction\, depression\, or a lack of confidence. Leming’s fans often cite his storytelling abilities as one reason they love his work\, and that takes center stage on the title track\, a spoken-word song. “Where It Starts” is a meditation on how heartache can lead to great art. \nThe first single is the powerful “Hell Without the Flames\,” the album’s darkest track that also showcases some of the best lyrics and vocals of his career. \nThey all make for a collection of songs that take the listener full circle. “There’s all these kinds of love stories\, and it walks through many variations on heartbreak\, ultimately landing on home\, acceptance and overcoming that hurt. I just want people to be able to see themselves in the songs.” \nThat’s what it’s all about for Leming. “The only goal for me is to make something real\, and honest\, and that can get them through the day\,” he says. “I gave everything I have for this album. I laid it all on the table\, which is what I always want to do.” As Is proves to be all of that\, and more\, a milestone for one of our most authentic and resonant artists working today.

SUMMARY:The Sentimental Tourists
DESCRIPTION:The Sentimental Tourists release their debut album ‘Without Love We Expire’ on the 29th May through Bandcamp. The album will be released digitally and as a limited edition digipak CD. \nA collaboration between Dave Long (Into Paradise) and Paul Page (Whipping Boy)\, The Sentimental Tourists released three EPs through Bandcamp in 2025 – the new album features tracks from those EPs\, along with five unreleased songs. The album includes a cover version of ‘The Same Way You Came In’\, a song popularised by iconic Irish country singer Big Tom. \nThe Tourists are joined on bass by Michael Murphy\, who previously played with the Chapters and Barry McCormack. Joanne Loughman (ex -Swinging Swine and the Glee Club)\, adds her considerable vocal talents to ‘Forever’ and two of the bonus tracks. Recorded on an 8-track digital recorder\, the band have embraced the DIY\, low-fi ethos\, writing and recording the album between June – December 2025. Jimmy Eadie (ex-Into Paradise guitarist) produced\, mixed and mastered the album. \nREVIEWS: \n‘The EP is a shimmering beauty that has broken my heart in several places..’ Alan Corr\, RTE Entertainment \n‘The titular track ‘Living in Smoke Dreams‘ is a poetic contemplative indie gem\, rippling with atmospheric riffs. The vocal harmonies float above the lush swirling soundscapes. Like Spiritualized\, blossoming guitars slice\, ebb and flow creating a weightless universe of its own.’ Carmel Walsh \, God is in the TV fanzine. \n‘Those hankering after Whipping Boy should check out Happy Beatle\, Long’s clever lyrics over fuzzy guitar playing\, before the EP ends with the stripped-down\, elegiac Don’t Make Me Wait. Hopefully\, this EP is an indicator of things to come.’ Killian Laher\, No More Workhorse \n‘It’s hard to pick a favourite but if I had to it’s ‘Happy Beatle’. Long’s mournful refrain of “sooner or later\, you’ll find your way back to me” smothered in Page’s gorgeous guitar. It’s beautiful.’ Paul McDermott\, To Here Knows When\, Great Irish Albums Revisited

SUMMARY:Kerbdog
DESCRIPTION:Hailing from Kilkenny\, the legendary band Kerbdog\, which include – Cormac Battle (guitar/vocals)\, Colin Fennelly (bass)\, Billy Dalton (guitar) and Darragh Butler (drums)\, are excited to bring news to their loyal fans.\nTo celebrate 30 years of On The Turn\, they will play the album in it’s entirety\, for one night only\, at the iconic 3Olympia Theatre\, Dublin on Saturday 31st October 2026.\nTickets priced from €32.50 including booking fee & €1.50 restoration levy on sale now with Ticketmaster Ireland \n“For reasons that allude me\, 2025 has been a very busy year for Kerbdog on the live front (Forest Fest\, touring with Kaiser Chiefs and Reef to name a few)\, so it’s time to take a break from it all…… However\, with our album “On The Turn” heading towards 30 years in existence (We’re in mega denial about this fact) we’ve decided to do a live rendition of the entire record\, but just a once only in Ireland\, on Saturday 31st Oct 2026 at Dublin’s beautiful 3Olympia Theatre. \nWe’ll be playing tracks that were rarely if ever played live\, so there’s proper homework to be done!!!!. Naturally\, we’ll be doing the other “hits” too and other surprises you’ll hear about in due course. We hope that you can come and join us for this occasion from wherever you may dwell\, it’ll be a very special night in very special place. Cormac x” \nAbout Kerbdog\nKerbdog rapidly rose to fame in the mid-90s with and were set to rock the world with their eardrum battering melodies which were a clash of indie and metal. Battle’s songwriting nous married with simple\, dropped D riffs with a pop sensibility had A&R managers from around the world seeking to sign the band. They relocated to London and signed with Mercury Records and the four decamped in the legendary Rockfield Studios in Wales to record their debut album with Jack Endino\, the producer responsible for Nirvana’s debut Bleach.  \n“We were fans of that album\, but we enlisted him after we’d heard what he’d done on Push\, an album by a little-known Seattle band called Gruntruck\,” says Battle. “We went to the studio where Queen did Bohemian Rhapsody and worked very hard on the album and put in the hours. Brazilian metal titans Sepultura were recording there at the same time and we could hear their album Chaos AD coming together. I think some of what they were doing seeped into what we were doing. It made the record heavier and chunkier than we intended\, but we were happy with the results.” \nTheir 1993 eponymous debut was impressive enough and spawned four singles\, hitting a sweet spot in a Venn diagram marked metal and grunge. Their follow-up\, On The Turn\, saw the band truly find their feet\, and they spent the full summer of 1995 in Los Angeles in the legendary Sound City Studios and A&M Studios working hard to craft their next set of hit singles with producer Garth Richardson (Rage Against The Machine). \nUnfortunately\, Kerbdog were unlucky with timing and after an unbelievable summer in LA and a potential hit record waiting to be released\, their return to Ireland saw fate conspire against them. Their album was delayed and when it was released in 1997\, mainstream music press’ attention had moved on from alternative rock to Britpop. Their momentum was lost and effectively changed the trajectory of the band which struggled to fill venues and resulted in the then trio parting ways. “To cut a very long story short\, On The Turn was the right album at the wrong time\,” says Battle.  \nKerbdog’s loyal fans however have kept the faith over the decades and fans of alternative rock who had bought their albums\, raved about their music with an evangelistic vigour. The band became a cult concern years after the fact\, thanks largely to On The Turn. Although the band split in 1998\, they reunited in the mid-2000s for several live shows which resulted in the 2014 live album Congregation…and their story continues…….

SUMMARY:Transvision Vamp
DESCRIPTION:Transvision Vamp were formed in West London by Wendy James and Nick Christian Sayer\, along with Dave Parsons and Tex Axile. They were signed to MCA Records by A&R legend Dave Ambrose and released their breakthrough debut album ‘Pop Art’ in 1988\, featuring hit singles such as ‘I Want Your Love’\, ‘Tell That Girl To Shut Up’ and ‘Revolution Baby’. \nSecond album ‘Velveteen’\, which included the smash hit ‘Baby I Don’t Care’\, was released the following year and reached number 1 in the UK Charts and 10 other countries around the world. Their third and final album\, ‘Little Magnets Versus The Bubble Of Babble’\, was released in 1991 and was their biggest USA release\, securing No.1 spots in all the indie and college charts. Ironically\, the album was not made available domestically in the UK until years later. \nThe band did two world tours that year\, and Kurt Cobain famously attended many of the US shows\, wearing TTV t-shirts and declaring himself a fan. Wendy cited this album as her favourite\, specifically highlighting the song ‘If Looks Could Kill’. In 1992\, Transvision Vamp called time-out in San Francisco. \nDuring the span of Transvision Vamp\, Wendy was made a cover star of many magazines worldwide\, was photographed by everyone from David Bailey for Tatler Magazine\, Jurgen Teller for The Face Magazine and i-D Magazine. She became known for her forthright TV appearances and became an international household name.

SUMMARY:Nick Hakim
DESCRIPTION:Nick Hakim sits somewhere between an analytical philosopher\, mystic poet\, and abstract painter. To hear him speak of music is to encounter someone who fully understands its power\, who has been moved by its magic and seen its miracles. He’s devoted to music as both an ancient artform and eternal medicine. To hear him play music is to feel these truisms in live time. It’s a spirit that the New York-based songwriter has carried in his music—both as composer and collaborator. From early LPs like 2017’s Green Twins and 2020’s Will This Make Me Good\, to his new album\, I Can See\, Hakim has pursued the truth in every note he’s written\, every lyric he’s sung. His truth\, though\, is more akin to the abstract and intangible than the factual—more Borges than George Washington. It’s a cosmic assuredness that manifests throughout I Can See; a belief that the good in the universe is good for a reason. \nI Can See is a defining statement from an artist who has yet to put out a record that is anything but. And yet\, Nick Hakim’s fourth solo LP is a different experience than his previous efforts. It’s bolder\, stronger\, more confident. Hakim is more intimately attuned to his vision\, and there’s not a note on the album that’s out of place. Nick Hakim might shudder at anyone calling him a healer\, but this is certainly music for healing\, for taking a breath and facing the world with confidence\, lucidity\, and joy.

SUMMARY:MARK DIGNAM
DESCRIPTION:Irishman Mark Dignam was raised in a working-class Dublin neighbourhood defined by music in its many forms. \nIn the late 1980s Mark and his friend Glen Hansard began busking on Grafton Street\, with Mic Christopher\, Kila\, Les Keye et al\, and they established a street performing phenomenon that’s now a storied part of the city’s musical history. And its present\, indeed. \nMark became a popular member of Dublin’s influential songwriter scene\, performing at legendary sessions in historic venues such as Whelan’s\, The Bailey\, McDaids\, the International Bar and The Ruby Sessions\, to name but a few. \nA highly respected lyricist\, leaning into the folk-rock traditions of the past\, Ireland’s ‘Hotpress Magazine’ voted ‘Poetry and Songs from the Wheel’ one of its top ten debut albums of the year\, and hailed Mark as a powerful voice on the singer/songwriter scene. He has since released a further four highly regarded albums. \nWell known for his deeply engaging poetic lyrics and impassioned vocal\, Mark creates a strong and emotive connection with live audiences. \nMark has lived in the USA for 20 years and now plays shows in NYC\, elsewhere in the USA and Europe. He still returns to Dublin regularly to play gigs in his beloved Whelan’s.

SUMMARY:Doctor Millar
DESCRIPTION:Seán Millar AKA Doctor Millar is\, as many know\, something of a legend. \n“An Irish national treasure. The poet Laureate of Dublin’s dark side” – The Irish Times\n“Ireland’s Greatest Songwriter” – Hotpress Magazine\n“Irelands best lyricist” – The RTE Guide \nSean Millar will do a spoken word show on Thursday 29th October 2026\, in Little Whelans. Fans of Sean’s long form Facebook posts are in for a treat as he uses Halloween to backdrop ideas around transformation\, transgression\, power\, music\, spirituality\, and death. \n  \nEach of the five spoken word pieces will dovetail with a song illustrating and supporting the text\, some by Sean and one or two (very) unexpected covers. \n“ I see this as a way to bring together my different worlds. It’s always been strange to me that my music fans are almost completely unaware of my theatre work and community work and vice versa. Writing\, Music and Performance\, politics and society\, spirituality and art\, these are the driving forces of my working life. I hope to see people from each of those worlds there\, and I’ll do my best to make it entertaining too. \nOver the years I’ve been approached by many people who tell me how much they love my prose writing\, but I don’t publish books\, so this is for them as much as anything.” \nSeán is a musician\, storyteller\, writer and global award winning theatre composer for ‘Shame’ and the off-Broadway smash ‘Silver Stars’. A musician’s musician\, and pretty much one of a kind. His shows are close-up and intimate by design. \nIn 2026\, he released his 6th solo studio album ‘I Am Vermin’ (as usual some friends stepped in to help) and\, fair to say\, he’s lost none of his relatable edge.

SUMMARY:Alex Cameron
DESCRIPTION:Singular Artists proudly present Alex Cameron “Late To Set” Live In Concert\, at the Button Factory\, Dublin on Thursday\, 29 October 2026. \n\nAlex Cameron announces new concept album Late To Set – his fifth studio album – as well as an upcoming US and European Tour. \n\nLate To Set\, according to Alex Cameron\, was “recorded on an avocado ranch in California after LA started burning in January 2025.” \n\nProduction credits include Mark Perkins\, Zach Dawes and Maxim Ludwig among others. \nSome lines\, couplets and quatrains from the album: \n\n“I put on a tonne of weight/For a role I didn’t get/Aye/Now I’m always late for set” \n“You 3D print a guillotine/And then you tear the statue down” \n“Every puddle needs a drop of rain/Everybody needs a little pain” \n“I ordered a hooker to my home/And I yelled at my family/I have seen the childhood drain/From my own son’s face” \n“Jesus never had no doctor/He never had Covid-19/He never voted for Obama/And he never had no vaccine” \n“I’ve been selling your location for cash” \n“I am a violent man” \n– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –  \nLate to Set Tracklist: \n01 No Soldier \n02 Statue Down \n03 Stand-in Man \n04 Testosterone in Blue \n05 Jesus Never Had No Porno \n06 Ricochet \n07 No Guns Come Alone \n08 Red Hook Rain \n09 Violent Man \n\n– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –  \n\nALBUM BIO  \n\nI. \nIn New York City on his thirteenth birthday\, planes fell from the sky and crashed into the World Trade Center. This had nothing to do with Alex Cameron. He wasn’t there. He was in Australia. By the time the planes hit\, it wasn’t even 9/11 anymore. It was 9/12. \n\nThis has been the secret rhythm of his art. One day ahead of a most terrible\, but inevitable truth. \n\nII. \nAlex Cameron’s new album is called “Late to Set.” “Late to Set” was born of 9 forgotten long form screenplays written between the year 2022 and 2025. Rejected by the studios\, lost to the LA wildfires\, the charred remains fragmented and saved in songs of deep confusion and regret. \n\nIII. \n“Late to Set” is Al’s fifth album. Production credits include Mark Perkins\, Zach Dawes and Maxim Ludwig among others. \n\nIV. \nAl once told me that a lie is never funny\, but the truth is always funny. \n\nV. \nThe album was completed on an avocado ranch in California after LA started burning in January 2025. \n\nVI. \nThis is the world our fathers feared. “What a joy!” says Al. \n\nVII. \nThe dissection of art is murder. Vivisection is the dissection of something while it’s still alive. You do that to something you don’t believe has a soul. \n\nVIII. \nREDACTED \n\nIX. \n\nSome lines\, couplets and quatrains \n\n“I put on a tonne of weight/For a role I didn’t get/Aye/Now I’m always late for set” \n“You 3D print a guillotine/And then you tear the statue down” \n“Every puddle needs a drop of rain/Everybody needs a little pain” \n“I ordered a hooker to my home/And I yelled at my family/I have seen the childhood drain/From my own son’s face” \n“Jesus never had no doctor/He never had Covid-19/He never voted for Obama/And he never had no vaccine” \n“I’ve been selling your location for cash” \n“I am a violent man” \n\nX. \nI once read a book called Demonic Males: Apes and the Origins of Human Violence by Dale Peterson and Richard Wrangham. It’s about the differences between bonobos and chimpanzees. If you throw an empty cardboard box into a room full of bonobos\, they’ll all fuck each other silly and generously share the box. If you throw that same box into a room full of chimps\, they’ll kill and kill and kill until the last one gets the box. We share 99% of our DNA with both. \n\nAl once told me that a lie is never funny\, but the truth is always funny.

SUMMARY:Foy Vance: The Wake World Tour
DESCRIPTION:The tour will kick off in Zurich\, Switzerland\, on 3rd September and wrap in Boston\, MA\, on 1st May\, 2027. The world tour will start in Europe and the UK with stops including Berlin\, Paris\, Copenhagen\, Edinburgh\, London (two nights at O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire) and Dublin. The US portion includes Los Angeles (two nights)\, Denver\, Nashville\, Chicago\, Washington D.C. and New York City. \nOut 13 March via Rounder Records\, The Wake marks the completion of a 26-year grief journey\, defined by Vance’s tireless soul-searching and life-altering revelation to create a series of seven albums following the passing of his father in 1999. He has carried one of his father’s favourite sayings –“Give me the boy until he is 7\, and I will show you the man”– like a compass eversince\, and The Wake finds Vance at the seventh album\, marking the end (or beginning) of a Chapter. \nProduced by Ethan Johns (the Brit Award–winning producer known for his work with Paul McCartney\, Ray LaMontagne\, and more)\, the 13-track album brings Vance’s gritty vocal work to a potent convergence of folk\, soul\, and Southern blues\, instilling every moment with unbridled vitality. At turns devastating\, ecstatic and wildly illuminating\, The Wake carries a title that reflects both sorrow and the promise of healing\, and reveals an artist highly attuned to the task of preserving the human spirit in an often-unforgiving world. \nThe Wake World Tour will follow a series of special record store performances and intimate\, sold-out album release shows in March. Plus\, he’ll play a special hometown show\, A Celebration of Life with Foy Vance\, at Custom House Square in Belfast in August. \nAcross the decades\, Vance has built a body of work where emotional immediacy meets sweeping\, soulful sound — stories told with a kind of fearlessness and fragile humanity that feel hand-carved from his own life. Albums like Joy of Nothing\, From Muscle Shoals\, Signs of Life\, and To Memphis have shaped his singular blend of Americana\, folk\, and soul\, drawing praise from Rolling Stone\, NPR\, and Billboard\, and earning admiration from artists including Ed Sheeran\, Bonnie Raitt\, Kacey Musgraves\, and Sir Elton John.

SUMMARY:Paahto & The Bull
DESCRIPTION:Paahto & The Bull is the guitar-duo project of Patrick ‘Paahto’ Cummins and John Francis Flynn. Having met and played together since 2011 and having cut their teeth at The Maple Hotel on Dublin’s Gardiner Street\, Paahto and John helped form the Irish traditional group Skipper’s Alley in 2013 and would remain long-term sparring partners and an integral cog in Dublin’s traditional and folk music communities. Once There Was A King was another of their musical endeavours which reached into a progressive musical space in its short-lived timespan. However\, as with any collaboration between these two players\, Paahto & The Bull is beyond a meeting of two musical minds and encompasses a very personal element. \nDuring the covid-19 pandemic\, the pair experimented with music on two guitars inspired by Paahto’s interest in bluegrass flat-picking and John’s very original approach to accompaniment. Beginning with just an Instagram page to post some amateur material\, Paahto & The Bull decided to take the project more seriously and gradually worked towards recording an album with the help of Brendan Jenkinson and Ben Rawlins. The ethos for the duo has always been to focus on simplicity and only features the musicians playing their guitars despite them both being multi- instrumentalists and singers. \nThe music of Paahto & The Bull is a very honest reflection of the unique kind of sound that Cummins and Flynn have consistently created with each other over the past fifteen years and\, although one might have expected their initial release to be a banjo/guitar product\, the lateral thinking that went into choosing a guitar duet is also very in line with the particular flavour of progressive that these lads strive for. The statement is firm: ‘This is what we play. This is how we play. And this is what we are going to play.’ Having signed with Claddagh Records in late 2025\, Paahto & The Bull will be releasing their debut album during 2026.

SUMMARY:Antony Szmierek
DESCRIPTION:Manchester-born poet\, writer\, and producer Antony Szmierek today announces his second album\, Decoding Birdsong\, arriving 21st August via Mushroom Music / Virgin Music Group. Just eighteen months after his critically acclaimed debut\, Szmierek returns with a new body of work that signals a clear evolution in both sound and scope. Rooted in his personal touchstones within electronic music\, the album pairs expansive\, immersive production with his trademark razor-sharp lyricism. \nAlongside the news\, he shares new single ‘Chalk’\, an expansive\, sawtoothed electro track inspired by the snooker documentary Ronnie O’Sullivan: The Edge of Everything. In his words\, “it’s about the idea that chalking a cue makes a marginal difference to the outcome – a metaphor for chaos theory and the win-or-lose nature of the music industry.” \n\nThe track premiered this morning on Lauren Laverne’s BBC 6 Music show and will appear on the upcoming album alongside his recent disco-inflected house single\, ‘The Heron’ — a nod to his avian companion Ken\, a 1920s taxidermied bird that also features on the album artwork. \nDecoding Birdsong follows the wild success of his debut album\, 2025’s Service Station at the End of the Universe\, which launched Antony into a whirlwind of Glastonbury\, Jools Holland\, and repeat BBC airplay. He’s sold out venues across the UK and Europe\, and in February 2026 performed to 20\,000 while closing Solomun’s Alexandra Palace shows. The former English teacher had been working at a college for special needs students when his blend of spoken word and dance music started taking off\, earning him accolades such as 6Music’s Artist of the Year in 2023 following his Poems To Dance To EP\, and frequent comparisons to Mike Skinner\, Jarvis Cocker and John Cooper Clarke. \n\nService Station at the End of the Universe was rooted in Greater Manchester\, its locals and landmarks\, such as the Stockport Pyramid. And he began feeling the consequences of that: suddenly\, everyone knew his name at the pub – on some days\, that felt good; on others it made him feel like he was in The Truman Show. Feeling like something needed to change after a year of experiencing the industry’s high highs and low lows\, Antony recently relocated to Bristol\, trading the familiar for distance and peace. Decoding Birdsong was made in his new home city\, with his long-time collaborator Max Rad. \n\nWhere his debut had been a solo endeavour\, Decoding Birdsong brims with collaboration\, including Australia’s Pretty Girl\, London band Los Bitchos\, and Bristol producer 1-800 GIRLS\, as well as Imogen and the Knife and indie pop star Ellur. \n\nSpeaking about the new record\, Antony explains “Decoding Birdsong is about choosing to believe in something. Coincidence as a religion. Making your own luck in the face of loneliness and doubt. The smallest things can feel seminal\, seismic and life affirming if you just choose to lean in\, but it also asks if this is a dangerous way to live.  \n\nWhat happens when your numbers come in? What are the consequences of luck? Should you listen to the birds\, or are you only ever going to hear what you want to hear? To help us explore this: a heron\, dice\, a plummeting airplane\, the late-night TV show Aussie Gold Hunters and a fibreglass replica of Godzilla.”

Effortlessly commanding the room with an animated style that blends upbeat candor with dark comedic beats\, Gianmarco has earned rave reviews from The New York Times\, NPR\, Esquire\, The Atlantic\, Billboard\, and many more. Fresh off the success of his first hour-long special\, THIEF OF JOY\, which has amassed over 4 million views\, Soresi is currently capturing the attention of millions worldwide.

SUMMARY:Asher White
DESCRIPTION:Today\, Asher White\, the 25-year-old NYC-by-way-of-Rhode Island polymath behind some of the most inventive\, singular music in recent years\, announces her first ever run of UK/EU tour dates for Autumn 2026. Running through October and November 2026\, the shows take White across the UK and Ireland\, including a stop at Pitchfork London. \nIt marks the culmination of a prolific period following the release of her latest album 8 Tips For Full Catastrophe Living via Joyful Noise. The album has been widely praised for its fearless genre collision and conceptual scope\, with outlets including Pitchfork\, Rolling Stone\, NPR and Stereogum highlighting White’s distinctive creative voice. \n8 Tips For Full Catastrophe Living unfolds as a fractured self-help guide\, blending doom metal\, bossa nova\, power pop and industrial techno into a series of sonic collages. Across the record\, White explores themes of emotional collapse\, survival\, and absurdity in modern life\, delivered through surreal character studies and shifting musical forms. \nHer recent work has also included a full-length reimagining of Jessica Pratt’s debut album\, which received praise for its expansive reinterpretation of the original material\, as well as new single Nightingale Version (Sailor’s Moon)\, further showcasing her evolving songwriting and experimental approach. \n“White has a talent for melding elements that ought to sound out of place together\, instead making them seem right at home.”\nPitchfork \n“Younger artists have been obliterating genres for years\, but few can keep you guessing or leave you wanting more quite like Asher White.”\nNPR \n“Asher White is an Alex G-level prolific talent… it still feels like we’re only at the beginning of Asher White’s story.”\nStereogum

SUMMARY:Therapy Horse
DESCRIPTION:Therapy Horse made an electrifying entrance in 2025\, earning immediate recognition as one of Post-Brexit Pop’s Best Debuts of 2025. With members hailing from acclaimed Irish shoegaze act Pebbledash\, Therapy Horse forges a bold and cathartic soundscape\, channeling the visceral intensity of Lingua Ignota\, Wednesday\, Mogwai\, and Slint\, alongside Irish innovators like Percolator and Elastic Sleep. The result is an exhilarating\, exorcistic wall of sound that sets the band apart as a formidable new force. \nTheir debut single\, ‘LET ME BE CLEAR’\, dropped in 2025 and set the tone for their uncompromising ethos. Self-recorded in their rehearsal space with Andy Killian and mastered by Pete Maher (U2\, Pixies\, Nick Cave)\, the track melds searing noise with relentless\, rapid-fire percussion and ferocious\, unflinching lyricism. The song channels the anguish of powerlessness and the liberation that comes from embracing one’s anger\, establishing Therapy Horse as fearless commentators and sonic innovators. September saw the arrival of their riveting follow-up single\, ‘LOVE / MERCY’. \nTherapy Horse’s live performances are a tour de force\, radiating a whirlwind energy honed through relentless gigging across Ireland’s renowned venues. They have recently supported acts such as U.S. “fairy doom” heavyweights Faetooth\, UK post-punk band Heavy Lungs and many other Irish bands such as PUCK\, Mother Of Pearl\, Skinner\, I Dreamed I Dream\, Silverglass\, and The Low Field. Remarkably\, in just a matter of months since their inception\, Therapy Horse has already played iconic venues including Cork’s Kino\, Dublin’s Whelan’s\, and Limerick’s Dolans\, firmly establishing themselves as a live act to watch.

SUMMARY:Brandon Flowers
DESCRIPTION:For twenty years\, Flowers has been a fixture of the global music landscape\, yet Thrasher finds him pulling back the curtain on a chapter long kept secret: his formative years in small-town Utah. Moving away from the “big and shiny fantasy” of Las Vegas\, the new album explores the “Country-Western” traditions that soundtracked his youth in Nephi—a world of honky-tonk ragers\, highway rambles\, and winsome ballads. \n“I’ve been keeping the secret of my upbringing\,” Flowers says. “As I’ve gotten older\, I’ve found my way back to my father’s music and discovered that the stories I carry feel most at home in the skin of this beautiful American tradition.” \nRecorded in Nashville over a whirlwind three weeks\, Thrasher was produced by Shawn Everett and Jonathan Rado. The sessions featured an elite group of Nashville pros\, ranging in age from their thirties to eighties\, including local legends like David Rawlings (guitar)\, Bruce Bouton (pedal steel)\, and 85-year-old Charlie McCoy\, the legendary harmonica player known for his work with Bob Dylan. \nThe recording process favoured raw\, live takes—a method Flowers hadn’t utilized since the earliest days of his career. “It was one of the highlights of my recording career\,” he recalls. “There was so much experience and competence in the room. I didn’t want it to end.” \nFans at 3Olympia Theatre can expect a setlist featuring new tracks like the loping\, pedal-steel-drenched “Does It Ever Cross Your Mind\,” the haunting “Miss America\,” and the phantasmagoric finale “An American Dream\,” alongside selections from his celebrated solo discography including Flamingo and The Desired Effect. \nBrandon Flowers is a world-renowned singer and songwriter. As a solo artist\, he has released two chart-topping albums\, Flamingo (2010) and The Desired Effect (2015). His third album\, Thrasher\, marks a career-defining shift toward Americana and storytelling\, rooted in his upbringing in rural Utah and recorded with legendary session musicians in Nashville.

SUMMARY:Black Stone Cherry
DESCRIPTION:In the past two decades\, Black Stone Cherry has set a new standard for Southern rock\, revitalizing the tradition with its burly riffs and stirring rock hooks. Since its formation in 2001\, the four-piece brotherhood has remained Chris Robertson\, vocals/guitar; Ben Wells\, guitar/vocals; and John Fred Young\, drums. Today\, the band welcomes its dear friend Steve Jewell Jr. on bass/backing vocals. Steve is formerly of the blues-rock band OTIS who has opened for BSC many times. “I grew up around this music. Every time we play ‘Lonely Train\,’ I remember driving with my dad and hearing it on the radio. I get emotional thinking about it\,” Steve says. John Fred chimes in: “Steve is the young kid in the band—he doesn’t have as many wrinkles! He’s a monster player\, and we have this insane chemistry with him.” \n  \nOver the years\, BSC has both headlined and rocked 12\,000-cap arena shows and shared the stage with a diverse roster of superstars\, including Alter Bridge\, Theory of a Deadman\, Def Leppard\, Gov’t Mule\, Nickelback\, Lynyrd Skynyrd\, Bad Company\, Mötorhead\, Halestorm\, Stone Temple Pilots\, The Darkness\, and ZZ Top. In 2018\, BSC performed in front of 100\,000 people at the Download Festival as main support to Guns N’ Roses. In 2021\, the band played the UK’s venerated Royal Albert Hall\, immortalized on 2022’s live DVD Live From The Royal Albert Hall…Y’All.

SUMMARY:OVERPASS
DESCRIPTION:In their short history\, overpass have inspired an ever-growing fanbase with songs pulsating with youthful exuberance and the vulnerabilities of young adulthood. Their shows have been just as life-affirming\, providing a dopamine burst of wall-to-wall singalongs and an all-in-this-together communion. As they approach the release of their debut album\, ‘Elsewhere\, Always’\, overpass are primed to fulfill their skyscraping potential as their grassroots grittiness is scaled upwards into arena-reaching ambition.\nFor a record made with such confidence and conviction\, the dichotomy of ‘Elsewhere\, Always’ is that it is born from uncertainty. It’s a maelstrom of relatable twentysomething existential confusion\, but also one with the romance to map a course towards a brighter future. \nThe band – Max Newbold (vocals/guitar)\, Elliot Rawlings (guitar)\, India Armstrong (bass) and Jake Bishop (drums) – formed in Birmingham during lockdown. Their rise has continued ever since\, including a phenomenal 2025 which saw them sell-out two headline tours and power into big venues with The Wombats\, Wunderhorse and Inhaler.

SUMMARY:James Joyce Centre Walking Tours
