SUMMARY:The Big Star Quintet
DESCRIPTION:“A half-century later\, the Memphis band’s sophomore album remains a bright\, beautiful portrait of young\, big emotions and the way they intersected with the joy of music – Paste Magazine (2024) \n\nMemphis\, TN (July 2025)—Five decades ago\, Memphis power pop pioneers Big Star released two albums: No. 1 Record and Radio City. These genre-defining works went on to become cult classics\, inspiring generations of fans through songs such as “In the Street\,” “Thirteen\,” “September Gurls\,” “Back of a Car\,” and “I’m in Love With a Girl.” To celebrate the albums’ enduring legacy\, an all-star collective of musicians (led by the band’s sole surviving original member\, Jody Stephens) will join together on May 1\, at the Smithwick’s Kilkenny Roots Festival (Ireland) to perform many essential songs from Radio City and No. 1 Record\, inducted this year into the Grammy Hall of Fame\, and from the highly influential Third album. \n\nJoining Stephens will be some of the band’s biggest fans who have long been associated with Big Star–related projects\, including Jon Auer (Big Star/The Posies)\, Mike Mills (R.E.M.)\, Chris Stamey (The dB’s)\, and (subbing for Wilco’s Pat Sansone) Norman Blake (Teenage Fanclub) \nHeavily influenced by the British Invasion\, yet undeniably original\, Big Star (vocalist/guitarist/pianist Alex Chilton\, vocalist/guitarist Chris Bell\, bassist Andy Hummel\, and drummer Jody Stephens) offered a fresh new sound when they emerged in the early ’70s. While power pop wouldn’t truly take off until later in the decade\, the Memphis band set the tone with their infectious blend of jangly pop\, driving guitars\, sweet harmonies\, and wistful melancholia. In 1971\, Big Star made their debut with #1 Record\, which featured such memorable numbers as “In the Street” (later made famous by Cheap Trick)\, “Thirteen” (“one of rock’s most beautiful celebrations of adolescence” — Rolling Stone\, 2011)\, and “The Ballad of El Goodo.” (“The bridge [or middle eight\, call it what you will] alone shows more talent and creativity than some bands’ entire back catalogues.” — The Guardian\, 2011) While the album garnered high marks from critics\, however\, it failed to make a commercial splash. \n\nBell departed the band soon after\, leaving Chilton\, Hummel\, and Stephens to continue as a trio. In late 1973\, Big Star returned to Ardent Studios to record their follow-up\, with producer John Fry. Despite losing his longtime collaborator\, Chilton stepped in as the band’s de facto leader—a role that allowed his songwriting talents to shine. Released in 1974\, Radio City featured some of Big Star’s most beloved tracks\, including the bluesy opener “O\, My Soul\,” offbeat rocker “Back of a Car\,” the sweet acoustic ballad “I’m in Love with a Girl\,” plus their iconic pop classic\, “September Gurls.” Once again\, Radio City was met with critical acclaim but fell victim to distribution issues\, selling less than 20\,000 copies at the time. \n\nBut the story of Big Star certainly wasn’t over. Shared between friends and musicians as the years went on\, the albums became cult favorites—far exceeding their original commercial performance. Today\, both No. 1 Record and Radio City are considered definitive titles in the power pop canon and have long been counted among rock’s greatest albums. Hailed as “Pure power pop perfection” by Rolling Stone\, Radio City has been included in the outlet’s 2003\, 2012\, and 2020 “500 Greatest Albums of All Time” rankings. “September Gurls\,” meanwhile\, appeared on its “500 Greatest Songs of All Time” list\, while Consequence of Sound declared the track “One of American music’s prototypical power pop jams.” \n\nAlthough Big Star disbanded in late 1974 (not long after recording their third album\, Third/Sister Lovers)\, the band went on to achieve near-mythic status in the underground scene\, influencing some the biggest alt-rock artists of the ’80s\, ’90s and beyond\, including R.E.M.\, Teenage Fanclub\, Wilco\, and The Replacements (who famously penned the song “Alex Chilton” as an ode to the group’s frontman). Over the years\, Big Star’s songs have been reinterpreted by the likes of Elliott Smith\, The Bangles\, Placebo\, Beck\, Gin Blossoms\, Garbage\, Counting Crows\, and Jeff Buckley\, to name a few.\nIn the last two decades\, Big Star has finally been given their due\, honored with a host of glowing retrospectives\, as well as a tribute record (Big Star Small World\, 2006)\, a documentary (2012’s Nothing Can Hurt Me)\, and the 2016 concert film and live album\, Thank You\, Friends: Big Star’s Third Live…And More. The acclaimed release\, which is available to view on Amazon Prime\, captures the popular touring live show\, “Big Star’s Third\,” in which an all-star roster of guest vocalists and musicians join a core group (including Stephens\, Mike Mills\, Auer\, Sansone\, and Stamey) to perform Third/Sister Lovers\, plus selections from #1 Record and Radio City. Filmed at a concert in Glendale\, CA\, Thank You\, Friends features a cross-generational lineup of talent\, including Jeff Tweedy (Wilco)\, Ira Kaplan (Yo La Tengo)\, Robyn Hitchcock\, Dan Wilson\, original arranger Carl Marsh\, and San Francisco’s Kronos Quartet.

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.

SUMMARY:The Madonna of Asia
DESCRIPTION:Once Asia’s brightest star\, Rin Asari (Mai Ishikawa) was poised for global fame with the release of her first film in English. But soon after\, she vanished. It’s 2014. Rin\, in her forties\, lives quietly in Dublin. By chance\, she connects with Tara (Clare Barrett)\, a woman living in Hong Kong\, bringing up the past she has tried to forget. When Rin receives an offer to return to the screen\, she must confront what she left behind. \nInspired by the golden age of Hong Kong cinema\, THE MADONNA OF ASIA weaves together live performance\, vibrant projection and multilingual storytelling. Moving between myth and memory\, this piece traces a woman’s journey from icon to exile – and back to herself. \n. \nWritten\, directed and featuring design by Linbury Prizewinner Choy-Ping Ní Chléirigh-Ng 吳彩萍. \nPerformed in English\, Japanese and Cantonese. Japanese and Cantonese dialogue is captioned in English. Run time one hour. \n\n\n.\n\nFeatured by Chris McCormack in The Irish Times as one of 2026’s headline plays.\n\n.\n\nPraise for Choy-Ping’s work: \n“Formally\, thematically\, politically\, there is very little work being made in Ireland that dares as much as Choy-Ping’s.”\n— Carys D. Coburn \n“To be displaced from a place is also to be displaced from language.

SUMMARY:ÍMAR
DESCRIPTION:BBC Radio 2 Folk Award Winners\, Glasgow-based five-piece Ímar stand out from the crowd – by taking things back to basics. \nWith a line-up featuring members of Mànran\, Mec Lir\, RURA\, and Talisk and a heavyweight collective haul of top prizes – including a the 2018 BBC Radio 2 Musician Of The Year\, 2016 BBC Radio Scotland Young Musician of the Year\, BBC Radio 2 Horizon Award\, Young Folk Award\, nine All-Ireland and eight All-Britain titles – the group’s formation embodies a personal reconnection with its members’ formative years\, dating back long before their recent camaraderie around Glasgow’s justly celebrated session scene. \nAdam Brown (bodhrán)\, Adam Rhodes (bouzouki)\, Mohsen Amini (concertina)\, Ryan Murphy (uilleann pipes) and Tomás Callister (fiddle) share a strong background in Irish music – although only Murphy actually hails from Ireland; Rhodes and Callister are from the Isle of Man\, whilst\nAmini is a Glasgow native\, and Brown originally from Suffolk – and it is these foundations which underpin many of Ímar’s distinctive qualities\, in both instrumentation and material. \nThe band’s unmistakable synergy centers on the overlapping cultural heritage between Scotland\, Ireland and the Isle of Man. All three places once shared the same Gaelic language and a similar kinship endures between their musical traditions. \n“energy that’s seemingly bursting to let loose” – The Herald “exceptional” – The Living Tradition \n“Genuinely jaw-dropping collective virtuosity” **** The Scotsman

SUMMARY:Lloyd Banks
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating Two Decades of Hip-Hop Excellence with Lloyd Banks \n\n** \nThere has always been a sense of precision at the centre of Lloyd Banks’ \nmusic. From his earliest recordings\, his voice arrived measured and \ncontrolled\, defined by sharp wordplay\, calm authority\, and a writing style \nbuilt on discipline and intent. Emerging from New York in the early 2000s\, \nBanks established himself as a lyricist whose verses carried weight without \nexcess\, earning attention far beyond the city that shaped him. \nFirst gaining global exposure as a core founding member of G-Unit\, Banks \nfound himself at the forefront of one of hip-hop’s most visible eras. That \nmoment introduced his sound to audiences worldwide\, while his solo \ncatalogue quickly revealed the depth and clarity that would define his \ncareer on his own terms.

SUMMARY:CAM COLE
DESCRIPTION:Cam Cole is probably the heaviest one-man band in the world\, fusing blues\, folk\, grunge\, stoner rock and metal into an unforgettable live experience. \nHis story so far is that of an incredible journey from the streets of London to stages all around the world. Starting out as a busker on every street corner that he could play on without getting arrested by the local council\, Cam’s videos went viral on social media\, earning him a loyal fanbase\, millions of streams\, a cameo in Emmy winning TV show “Ted Lasso” and subsequent tours and festival slots across the UK\, Europe\, Australia\, USA\, Canada\, Mexico etc.\, selling out club shows in cities he had never been in before. \nProving that he is more than just a social media phenomenon\, Cam has started to conquer screens now too. Not many artists have an Amazon Prime documentary filmed about them\, Cam joining those select few that have with the “American Mileage” documentary made about his first USA tour last year. Even TV stations in England have started paying attention\, resulting in Cam performing on “Strictly Come Dancing” winner Chris McCausland’s show on ITV and Rightmove licensing his song “Mama” for their 2025 nationwide campaign\, sending Cam’s music into millions of homes across the UK. \nNow with hundreds of gigs and 3 albums under his belt\, Cam has made the difficult jump from street musician to international touring artist without losing the core of what made him unique in the first place. Still building on the wall of sound he conjures all by himself with just a guitar and his trusty Farmer Footdrums\, his live show and sound have expanded over the last year \, now incorporating more psychedelic and expansive sounds. All this will be culminating in his most ambitious work yet: His fourth album “Lost in Creation” is on the horizon and Cam will be coming to Irish venues again in April 2026. Get your tickets and bring a friend\, you have seen nothing like it yet.

SUMMARY:Ninja S*x Party - Pure Elegance Tour
DESCRIPTION:Ninja Sex Party have confirmed they’ll bring their Pure Elegance Tour to 3Olympia Theatre\, Dublin on Sunday 26th April 2026. \nWith special guests TWRP as support. \n\n\nFor the first time in over six years NSP and TWRP are coming back to Europe and the UK\, and they’re doing it with STYLE! Actually\, not style: ELEGANCE. But actually\, not just elegance: PURE ELEGANCE. \nThat’s right\, it’s the Pure Elegance Tour 2026\, featuring everything you’ve come to expect from NSP: Classy songs\, exquisite showmanship\, a refined\, debonair atmosphere\, and face-melting solos that will rend your flesh from your bones and leave you gasping for breath yet desperate for more as you fall\, screaming\, to the floor. Like we said: Pure Elegance. \nFrom humble beginnings in New York’s improv circuit\, to their current regimen of rocking international stages\, Ninja Sex Party (NSP) has become a force to be reckoned with in the comedy music landscape. Founded in 2009 by Dan Avidan (Danny Sexbang) and theoretical physicist-turned-musician Brian Wecht (Ninja Brian)\, the duo seamlessly blends humor with rock and synth pop\, delivering side-splitting tales of romance\, mythical quests\, and of course\, the occasional (very\, very\, very tasteful) joke of an intimate nature. \nWhat sets NSP apart? Perhaps it’s Danny’s hypersexual yet hopelessly romantic persona as he tries to serenade women\, or maybe it’s Ninja Brian’s silent\, lethal demeanor coupled with an unexpected tenderness. Their journey\, which began with small gigs and blossomed into worldwide tours\, has seen them release nine studio albums\, collaborate with a universe of talented artists\, and accumulate a YouTube following exceeding 1.3 million subscribers. \n2018’s Cool Patrol\, the band’s fourth original album\, was a shining example of NSP’s growth\, where epic rock anthems like “Danny Don’t You Know” not only sat alongside their extensive catalog of both covers and originals\, but also outshone them\, paving the way for a new batch of classic comedy songs. And now\, NSP is back with These Nuts\, their first original album since 2020\, promising a fresh batch of their signature comedic anthems. Whether they’re pondering existential questions like “Who invented space?” (answer: Albert Einstein)\, courting oblivious mermaids\, or navigating heretofore unexplored innuendos\, NSP ensures their fans are both laughing and rocking out. \nNSP’s diverse skill set has seen them build monumental success throughout their 15 year career\, collaborating with YouTube personalities\, actors\, legendary 80’s bands\, and even a few spots on Conan O’Brien. Over the course of their history\, NSP has defied the odds – breaking into the billboard Top 10 multiple times as an independent artist\, and topping the Comedy album charts time and time again. When most bands would hang up the cape and mask\, NSP has kept their spandex on\, soaring higher with every new release. The band has played sold out shows all over North America\, Europe\, Australia\, and New Zealand. They were Billboard’s #1 selling comedy act in 2018\, and have amassed over 400 million views on Youtube. With These Nuts\, coming out in Spring 2024\, the band is releasing their first original album in four years\, and it seems like the party is just getting started. \nBeyond the stage and studio\, NSP is also two thirds of Starbomb\, a comedy hip-hop group that merges video game culture with a signature comedic flair. But at the core of all their endeavors – Starbomb\, NSP\, and beyond – is a genuine love for music\, humor\, and their ever-supportive fan base. \nToday\, Ninja Sex Party stands as a celebration of comedy\, rock\, and the belief that a Jewish superhero and his ninja sidekick can take over the world\, one hilarious song at a time.
