SUMMARY:Jessie Ware
DESCRIPTION:Jessie Ware has announced The Superbloom Tour\, her biggest tour to date and first-ever UK arena run\, in support of her forthcoming album Superbloom\, out 17th April via EMI Records. The tour features Ware’s first UK Arena run\, which is followed by a show in 3Olympia Theatre on 1st December 2026. \nJessie Ware said of the tour announcement: “I am so excited to be performing my biggest shows ever. We made it to arenas!!! I am playing iconic venues around the world and I couldn’t be happier. The ‘Superbloom’ Tour will be filled with celebration\, dancing\, theatre\, cowboys and goddesses and of course a LOT of singing. Can’t wait to step into my garden where we all shall bloom!” \nSuperbloom marks the next chapter in Ware’s acclaimed run of releases following What’s Your Pleasure? and 2023’s That! Feels Good!\, both of which cemented her reputation as one of the most exciting voices in modern pop. Expanding her increasingly euphoric sonic world\, the album erupts into a glittering rush of Studio 54-inflected groove-pop\, exploring themes of pleasure\, intimacy\, connection and transformation. \nThe record arrives almost three years after Ware’s critically acclaimed That! Feels Good!\, which debuted at No. 3 on the Official UK Albums Chart and marked her highest-ever entry on the US Top Album Sales chart. Across her career\, Jessie has earned two UK Top 3 albums with What’s Your Pleasure? and That! Feels Good!\, alongside multiple BRIT Award nominations. \nRenowned for her euphoric live performances\, Ware has delivered landmark sets at Glastonbury\, Primavera Sound and the British Fashion Awards\, while building a devoted global fanbase through hits including Free Yourself\, Pearls and Begin Again. \nWith Superbloom and her most ambitious live run yet\, Jessie Ware enters a new era — confident\, glamorous and fully in bloom.

SUMMARY:James Joyce Centre Walking Tours
DESCRIPTION:Guides from the James Joyce Centre take you through Dublin\, exploring the history of the city and the various locations described by Ireland’s greatest writer\, James Joyce.\n\nThough Joyce lived most of his life outside of Ireland\, Dublin would provide the backdrop for virtually all of his work.

Duration 2 hours.\n\nAdmission to the James Joyce Centre is included. \nThe James Joyce Centre is supported by the Department of Culture\, Communications and Sport.

SUMMARY:Garron Noone
DESCRIPTION:Noone was named one of Ireland’s “breakthrough stars” for 2023 on TikTok. He rose from having just a few thousand followers in early 2023\, while posting music tutorials\, to over a million in February 2024 after transitioning to comedy. \nHis catchphrase\, “Follow me\, I’m delicious” came about when he made a video that he did not think was particularly funny\, so he randomly added it to the end. When he made future videos without it\, he got comments from viewers asking for it. People now shout the phrase at him on the street and send him photos of objects with the word “delicious.” The phrase was the inspiration for an ad campaign for a coffee company where Noone served as spokesman. \nIn 2024\, Noone won the Gossie Award for newcomer of the year. Also in 2024\, Noone released his podcast Listen\, I’m Delicious\, named so after his catchphrase. \nConnect with Garron Noone – TikTok / Instagram / YouTube

As asongwriter\, he’s both intensely introspec?ve and sharply self-aware\, espousing the importance of self-care withsensi?vity. In this respect\, he makes ?meless music with a modern mindset. Beyond playing instruments andsinging\, this CharloIe na?ve with a restless\, road-worn spirit personally grabs the reins and produces\, mixes\, andmasters his own songs. He has tallied nearly 100 million streams\, received cri?cal acclaim\, and cap?vated sold-outrooms as a proven headliner. Crea?vely\, he doesn’t follow a formula. You’re just as likelyto encounter a breezychord progression in one of his tunes as you are to hear a rowdy and boisterous horn sec?on or big screen-sizestrings. HiOng the road\, he shined on bills with Sam Barber and Rainbow KiIen Surprise as well as Chelsea Cutlerand Jeremy Zucker. Ethan’s self-produced 2025 EP\,honey honey honey\, saw him gain further trac?on with “get by”and “spaceman.” In the EP’s wake\, he canvased the country\, headlining his“I Almost Graduated”Tour and releasingthe likes of “fool” and “sweet hunger.”Looking forward\, his ar?stry remains an unapologe?c and unfilteredreflec?on of who he is. You’ll feel like you know him a liIle beIer on a series of 2026 singles for Columbia Recordsand his forthcoming debut album\, “YOUNG REGAN.”

SUMMARY:Jamie Duffy
DESCRIPTION:At just 25 years old\, Jamie Duffy has rapidly ascended to the elite tier of global multi instrumentalists\, amassing over 160 million streams on his debut single alone. Seamlessly bridging the gap between traditional and modern composition\, Jamie has become a formidable force on the international stage\, redefining what it means to be a “classical” artist in the 21st century. \nJamie’s transition from a viral sensation to a live powerhouse has been marked by a string of prestigious\, sold-out headline shows across the UK and Ireland\, including a landmark performance at Dublin’s National Concert Hall. His debut album has been met with equal acclaim\, breaking into the Top 10 of the Irish Official Charts and the UK Classical Charts. Notably\, Jamie held the distinction of being the only artist with an instrumental album on the Official Irish Charts\, a testament to his unique ability to captivate a mainstream audience. \nWhile his debut single ‘Solas’ provided a meteoric introduction to his sound\, the feature film ‘500 Miles’ is the perfect scoring debut for Jamie\, which showcases another side to his musical world. This world includes scoring projects and bespoke creative endeavours that sit between his primary artistic pursuits\, ensuring every note he releases contributes to an ever evolving and authentic journey.

SUMMARY:Martin Luke Brown
DESCRIPTION:“Start\, middle\, end\, start again.” Martin Luke Brown sings like it’s nothing on ‘highest high’\, but after a while\, we all come to realise that really\, that’s all there is. \nThere’s life\, and there’s death but in the middle\, there’s everything. There’s friendship\, love\, good kisses\, nights out you do or don’t remember\, meals shared\, flats rented. For Martin specifically\, the “etc.” is an amalgamation of hours aimlessly jamming with housemates\, new loves after lost ones\, and cars breaking down like ridiculous comedic relief in the chaos of it all. In an artistic world so obsessed with the extremes on either side\, his third album\, life & death etc refuses to wait for a moment of grandeur\, but instead finds them in the movement of it all – asking us to consider that what are maybe the most profound moments of our lives are often the simplest; conversations around dinner tables or time spent goofing around. \nAfter leaving behind the major label world and reinventing his career into one that allows him to live and work as much as possible with friends\, his artistry too exists right there. For this new release\, he once again returned to working with one of his best friends Matt Zara\, staying true to their partnership that is really little more than “hanging out\, playing music and whatever happens\, happens.” \nFrom that room\, where these two childhood friends seamlessly weave between harmonising and arguing\, stress and laughter\, work and play – the entire energy of life & death etc is encapsulated. \n“I think two people having fun\, especially being shit at something together\, is actually so much more magical\,” he said. Though himself and Grammy-nominated Zara are anything but “shit”\, it’s all in the motivation of the studio\, caring less about technicality as opposed to feel. As he’s moved through his career\, witnessing the industry at basically every level\, Martin finds himself becoming far less interested in proficiency. \nInstead\, it all lies in the energy\, reuniting him with his core belief of what music is all about. Growing up in the church with hymns and a community singing them\, Martin said “When people go to their first gigs people are singing along\, and there’s that euphoric feeling of ‘oh\, we’re all together’\, I had that in church. I think I misconstrued the power of music with the power of God. Or maybe it’s always been God all along\, who knows. ” \n  \nBut there was a take away from that. Going back to the very root of what music is for\, his latest work is inspired by music made by people for people. He said\, “it’s service orientated – I want to make music that serves people in some way.” \nIt drew him to another key influence that stayed on repeat during the making of the record – the infectiously human ‘Do I Ever Cross Your Mind’ by Chet Atkins and Dolly Parton\, a country ditty that collapses into laughter. “It’s goofy and silly and it makes people feel good and makes them want to dance around\,” he said\, ”But there’s sentimentality there\, a subtle depth. I think that’s such a good example of what music can be – joyous but still meaningful. Especially in times like these\, happiness or hope feel like an act of rebellion” \nIt hasn’t been long since we last heard from Martin. His previous record\, man oh man ! arrived just over a year ago\, but he’d grown sick of the strange\, stunting delay musicians have to live with. “I’m always keen to keep moving. It makes it easier to be in alignment with who I really am\, rather than festering in an old feeling for too long\,” Martin said\, rejecting the typical wait that forces artists to be promoting some old version of themselves. Deciding to simply make something new when the moment seemed to call for it\, he’s realised the value of immediacy and capturing the present. \n“I think if I zoom forward to when I’m like 80\, and I’m looking back at all the music I’ve ever done\, I would love each album to be time capsules of that time in my life\,” he said\, treating the records like photo albums\, or fleeting snapshots to feel and let go. “It’s such a dense time\, each year right now deserves an album at least” \nAcross all corners of his life\, that’s a mindset he’s practicing. “I think holding things loosely is such an important life skill\,” he said\, “whenever you grip on to something tightly it doesn’t serve anything. It doesn’t serve the thing that you’re holding on to. It just strangles it\, like poor fucking Lenny from of mice & men hahah” \nlife & death etc\, despite dealing with dense themes of heartbreak\, grief and purpose\, practices a loose grip – hence the flippancy of the title. “Yes my heart took a beating\, but it’s beating nonetheless\,” he sings on ‘nonetheless’\, refusing to grip white-knuckled to pain but instead surrendering to the heartache moving through him and the fact that life will move on despite it. On ‘back of my mind’\, he lets past loves linger as a whisper as it does exactly that\, singing\, “you’re not in my life no more\, but you’re still in the back of my mind.” At the album’s end\, ‘unlearning everything’ serves as both an elegy and a mission statement\, concluding simply “it’s right there in front of my eyes” as a devotion to simply witnessing and feeling the present as all there really is. \n“I think my flow is just writing and putting it out and writing and putting it out and writing and putting it out. Not overly editing or filtering or performing\, because that’s exhausting” he said. Across his three records\, his diary-like lyrical tone that serves that state best has been developing\, but never has it been more candid than here. \nDevoted to making music that sounds like him\, capturing tiny personal moments and somehow turning them into universal experiences\, Martin doesn’t shy away from wanting to bring us all together “That feeling you get at a show or a rave or church or a festival – that euphoria of feeling like you belong\, I want to spend my whole life in that feeling.” \nBOILERPLATE: \nThere’s life\, there’s death\, but everything else exists right here\, in the beautiful middle. After a while\, we all come to realise that really\, that’s all there is. In this new era\, Martin Luke Brown is drinking it all in. \nAfter years of navigating the industry from every angle\, the artist is rejecting rules\, structures and expectations to instead reunite with the community roots of what music is all about. Creating music and living life as “service orientated”\, he’s making art that exists as a time capsule of his own life. Leaving the edges rough and unedited as a show of devotion to the idea that what is most human is most universal. \nAsking us repeatedly to consider that perhaps the most profound moments are the ones right in front of us; the dinner table conversations\, the jokes with friends\, the hazy nights out\, Martin Luke Brown is now at his most candid\, and his most captivating.

SUMMARY:Genesis Owusu
DESCRIPTION:REDSTAR WU & THE WORLDWIDE SCOURGE is Genesis Owusu’s third studio album — a 14-track project that stands as his most experimental and politically charged work to date. Released on 15 May 2026 via Ourness and preceded by the singles “PIRATE RADIO\,” “DEATH CULT ZOMBIE\,” “STAMPEDE\,” and “LIFE KEEPS GOING\,” the record features guest appearances from Duckwrth and Ladyhawke\, and has been met with widespread critical acclaim. Pitchfork praised the way Owusu “folds together post-industrial dissonance\, globe-trotting influences\, and stinging social commentary\,” positioning him as “a unifying node in a post-everything landscape.” \n  \nThe album unfolds as an eclectic musical journey\, where Neo-Soul feeds into Alt Pop\, Synth Punk into Funk\, and genre borders dissolve into a vibrant\, layered soundscape. It captures moments of collective ecstasy and desolation\, resistance and joy\, dance and reflection\, while Owusu channels his sharpened lyricism into a reflection of the world’s unrest. \nWritten from a sense of necessity\, the album is a piercing commentary on the political\, social\, and economic turmoil of contemporary society. Owusu ruminates on institutional corruption\, the rise of extremism\, and the fractures of modern life\, while also calling for unity and brotherhood. The opening track\, “PIRATE RADIO\,” sets the tone with its frantic instrumentation and unflinching honesty\, followed by songs such as “STAMPEDE\,” “BLESSED ARE THE MEEK\,” and “THE WORLDWIDE SCOURGE\,” which tackle far-right politics\, genocide\, and media manipulation. Amid the urgency\, Owusu also finds space for introspection — “HELLSTAR” and “RUNNIN OUTTA TIME” explore love and joy as acts of resistance\, while the album’s more personal moments examine apathy and the loss of empathy in a crumbling world. \nRecorded in South Wales with executive producer Dann Hume\, the album emerged from free-flowing\, unbounded sessions where no sound or genre was off limits. The result is a kaleidoscopic record that draws on influences from Deep Funk\, Neo Soul\, Brit Rock\, and Alt Pop\, fusing them into a powerful\, cohesive statement. At its core\, REDSTAR WU & THE WORLDWIDE SCOURGE is a rallying cry and an act of hope — a fearless reflection of the times that urges resistance\, unity\, and love amid global chaos.

SUMMARY:Aaron Rowe
DESCRIPTION:When you watch Aaron Rowe on stage\, he anchors himself behind the mic\, broad shouldered and wide eyed whilst telling stories. Song histories\, personal anecdotes or just random thoughts and funny observations are blurted out with erratic but effortless charm. His smile is so sunny and wide it feels permanent and his laugh is hoarse\, warm and totally infectious. When he speaks his eyes glisten\, but when he sings\, they close as his head lulls onto his shoulder and tilts back. For Aaron\, singing and playing guitar is not a choice\, it’s an extension of himself – he has to do it. You can tell as soon as he begins it offers him not only freedom\, but focus. \nWhen he first started playing music as a teenager\, Aaron tried to keep it a secret. “Where I’m from\, you can’t show people you’re soft\, so playing music and singing was just off the cards.” However\, it got tricky once he started walking around the area with a guitar strapped to his back. One day he was finally pulled over by “a few of the lads\, they asked me ‘you playing music then\, Aaron? Play us a song;” And when he humbly refused? “Play us a fucking song”. Reluctantly\, he sang to them\, sitting on a brick wall behind those tightly closed eyes. When he opened them\, instead of laughter he was met with acceptance. “All they said was\, ‘That was class\,’ It was a really nice moment for me\, and after that exact day I was like fuck this\, this is what I want to do\, and this is what I’m going to do for the rest of my life”. He decided then and there that he was going to be a musician. \nSo far\, the story of Aaron Rowe looks like what fate feels like: paths crossing and stars aligning. Almost exactly a year ago\, Aaron was singing covers at his regular Saturday gig in The Dame Tavern when one of his future managers would walk in and discover him playing. A few weeks later\, Lewis Capaldi would also stumble into Aaron’s usual Sunday sessions at Cassidy’s on a stag do. Like fate\, a few weeks after that\, he would bump into Lewis again whilst performing at an open mic in Nashville\, where Lewis introduced him to his best friend\, now Aaron’s manager\, who just so happened to have listened to his demos that very morning. Far from an overnight success\, after nearly thirteen years of gigging five days a week\, his moment finally came. Call it fate\, call it what you will\, a good story is the least you can expect from a generational voice like Aaron. His own life experiences leading up to this moment means there is an unmatched maturity and vulnerability to Aaron’s songwriting\, Somehow\, he can balance the heart wrenching with the heartwarming\, all the while holding open the door to us into his very personal world.

SUMMARY:Alborosie
DESCRIPTION:ALBOROSIE – NINE MILE UK TOUR  \nThe most Jamaican of the Sicilians  \nWith over 100 million streams and more than 10 million monthly listeners across all platforms in 2024\, Alborosie is undoubtedly the international reggae benchmark! Two years after the release of his album Destiny\, Pupa Albo is back this year with a new opus. \nAlborosie has built up a solid reputation with over 1\,000 concerts across the globe. After a major world tour in 2025\, he’s back on the road to support the release of his new album and to offer his fans some exceptional live moments where new singles will rub shoulders with must-have tracks from his vast musical catalogue. \nReal name Alberto D’Ascola\, this Sicilian with giant dreadlocks left his native land to reach Jamaica and fully embrace this culture that he feels. Living on this island for over 20 years\, Alborosie is an ultra prolific artist who has been shaking up the roots reggae world since 1993. Roots\, rub-a-dub\, raggamuffin\, dancehall and dub are all part of the authentic reggae expression and no one embraces these styles with such reverence\, joy and vibrancy than Alborosie. \nWith a discography including cult albums like “Soul Pirate”\, and flagship tracks from its beginnings\, like “Kingston Town” or “Herbalist”\, true anthems of several generations\, Alborosie has become one of the most listened international reggae artists in the world. \nAlborosie is committed to authentic reggae\, to honoring and preserving its heritage. He notably collaborates with many of today’s leading artists like Ky-Mani Marley\, Joe Mersa Marley\, Collie Buddz\, Roots Radics\, The Wailers United\, King Jammy… and also produces music for several Jamaican stars\, including the recent Wailing Souls album “Back A Yard”. These works are a testament to his study of the origins of reggae\, and his contribution to its future. \nAlborosie\, who in 2011 made history as the first white artist to win the M.O.B.O (Music of Black Origin) Awards in the Best Reggae Act category\, gained stature and purpose. As an artist and producer\, and as a voice for change. Along with the recording of his latest opus\, in December 2020 Alborosie recorded and released “Shadows After Dark”\, teaming up with Christopher Martin\, Etana\, Romain Virgo\, Morgan Heritage and many others to raise awareness of the perils of Human Trafficking in Jamaica. \nThis globetrotter has cut his teeth on tour and has been defending his culture on stages around the world for over 15 years. From his beginnings he took care to be accompanied by exceptional musicians who today constitute the “Clan Shengen”. On stage\, his vocal mastery allows him to simultaneously sweep all the styles that make up reggae\, to toasting his greatest hits as well as fetching notes worthy of opera. His almost limitless vocal abilities make his performances unique and his shows are acclaimed and acclaimed by an eclectic and multigenerational audience. \n“Destiny”\, released on May 26th 2023 (Greensleeves Records / VP Records / Shengen Entertainment)\, boasts an impressive list of collaborators with featured guest performances from such luminaries as Kabaka Pyramid\, Buju Banton\, Jaz Elise and Burro Banton to name but a few. In 2024\, he released his latest album\, “Dub Pirate\,” his seventh adventure into dub music. Alborosie showcases his production talents by remixing twelve emblematic songs from “Soul Pirate.”

SUMMARY:LEAP @ The Grand Social
DESCRIPTION:The LEAP story is one of redemption\, salvation\, and remarkably fine margins. A rollercoaster ride through major label sugar-pills and Hollywood dreams\, and back from the brink of despair through some of the darkest extremes that life can conjure. From the padded walls of Balcarres Hospital’s psychiatric ward\, to family suicide\, LEAP have somehow come out the other side into a beautiful world of communal rock and roll therapy. \nAfter signing to Capitol and Sony Records with his previous project\, lead-singer Jack Scott got a taste of the limelight\, both sweet and sour. The false highs of an unsustainable platform soon gave way to unbearable lows\, and living with bi-polar disorder\, Jacky descended into an extended manic episode. Following countless run-ins with the police and ambulance services\, Jacky was eventually sectioned in a psychiatric institution. Sedated and incarcerated for months\, he was later released to the news that his project had been dropped by all labels\, management and publisher. Empty months of deep depression followed\, before his father committed suicide in Edinburgh\, plunging Jacky further into unimaginable depths of mental trauma. \nIt is in the midst of this existential black hole that the LEAP seed starts growing. One of the most electrifying\, natural-born entertainers in music\, Jacky was never going to do anything else. He owns it with refreshing clarity: ‘Oh I’d be completely numb without LEAP. Or dead. One of the two. I know that for a fact.’ \nThe name had come from his father. Don’t flinch. Whatever it is\, face it head on. LEAP. And so Jacky started writing. Drowning out the incessant mental abuse with poignant lyrics over anthemic instrumentals\, it was all he could do to stay sane. As this cathartic process continued\, Jacky recruited his 2 closest friends on rhythm section. \nBorn days apart in the same hospital\, Hector Cottam on drums has been Jacky’s best friend since they were infants. A bisexual Buddhist\, Heccy has been at Jack’s side through all the hurt\, and he adds a welcome sense of stability to Jacky’s volatility. Trained at The Drummer’s Collective in NYC\, Heccy is a human metronome who idolises rock giants like QOTSA and Jack White. \nOn bass\, from Johannesburg\, South Africa\, the life of every party\, Mr Declan Brown. A man so deeply consumed by the sheer enjoyment of performing that he regularly forgets to play his parts. Too busy cackling with someone in the front row\, Deccy is the class clown and one of the warmest\, purest souls you’ll ever meet. \nThe final piece of the puzzle\, landing straight from Zelda’s Hyrule\, Adam ‘The Pixie’ Mason on lead guitar. Initially recruited through friends of friends\, his impact was instant. And not just on the musical side. Baby Mason fit like a pocket-sized glove into the LEAP equation\, and he immediately quit the other 5 bands he was session-ing with at the time.
