SUMMARY:Whitechapel & Sylosis
DESCRIPTION:American deathcore band Whitechapel and UK metal powerhouse Sylosis announce huge co-headline Academy\, Dublin show for Tuesday\, 26th January 2027. Joining them are very special guests 200 Stab Wounds & Tribal Gaze. \nTickets from €43.50 (inc booking fee & venue facility fee) from Ticketmaster.ie. Bookings subject to 12.5% service charge per ticket (max €10.50) \nAbout Whitechapel: Whitechapel\, who formed in Knoxville\, Tennessee\, in 2006\, has seen the core lineup—vocalist Phill Bozeman; guitarists Ben Savage\, Zach Householder and Alex Wade; bassist Gabe Crisp—intact since 2007\, with the exception of the drummer Brandon Zackey\, who has been playing with the band since 2022. While Hymns in Dissonance follows 2021’s Kin chronologically\, the new album is actually somewhat of a sequel to This is Exile thematically\, the three-word title Hymns in Dissonance representing that correlation. \nWhitechapel started writing for the new album at Householder’s studio in June of 2023\, following the band’s headlining tour for The Valley. Whitechapel stuck to a strict weekday schedule\, the structure allowing formaximum creativity and minimum burnout. Householder produced Hymns in Dissonance\, which allowed the musicians to seamlessly switch gears from preproduction to recording the full album without skipping a beat.The guitarist shadowed producer Mark Lewis a lot over the last five Whitechapel albums and bringing that influence inside the band is a “full circle moment for Householder and Whitechapel. “It’s cool that we can be self-sufficient and produce a record of this magnitude ourselves; not a lot of bands can say that.” \nLongtime fans will detect hints of the past within the brutality. To wit: the riff-tastic “Hate Cult Ritual” is the only song on the album with Drop A tuning\, the tuning the first three Whitechapel albums used. Additionally\, the Hymns in Dissonance chapter in Bozeman’s life finds the frontman living through his “past times\,” or as he states\, “the music that brought me here. Brutal\, dark\, aggressive\, heavy music. Death metal\, black metal\, speed metal\, etc. I truly believe that your roots call you back at some point in your life and this is that point in my life.” \nAt this stage in the game\, the name Whitechapel commands the ultimate respect. Already sitting on one of the most enviable catalogs in contemporary metal\, in 2019 they dropped The Valley\, highlighting a confident evolution in their sound and standing as a true landmark release that sets a new standard for the genre. With Bozeman exploring childhood trauma on 2019’s The Valley\, it was their darkest release to-date. But with its2021 successor\, Kin\, the story was darker still. \nAbout Sylosis: UK metal powerhouse Sylosis will be unleashing their most ambitious outing yet; a 31-date headline tour\, hitting major venues and cities across the UK and Europe in early 2026. \nFueled by their growing catalogue of crushing riffs and relentless live energy\, Sylosis are set to dominate stages from Helsinki to Barcelona. The run will feature their two biggest UK headline shows to-date\, at the O2 Forum Kentish Town\, London (20/02) and O2 Ritz\, Manchester (21/02). \n“This is it. 5 years of building towards a UK/EU headline tour with a bill that we are truly proud of. We’ve been touring hard for the last few years and never been stronger as a unit. This is our time to step it up and show everyone what a Sylosis show is all about. \nRevocation are true legends of the genre and it’s an honour to have them as a part of this. Distant are one of the hardest working heavy bands out there and rounding off the bill is one of our favourite bands to emerge out of the US in recent years\, Life Cycles. \nWe love heavy music and have put together a true showcase of modern metal. If you consider yourself a fan of all things heavy\, this is a tour that you simply cannot miss. We’ll see you next year.” \nSylosis are one of the UK’s most formidable modern metal acts – an unrelenting force known for their razor-sharp thrash riffs\, soaring melodic passages\, and progressive songwriting. Emerging from Reading in the early 2000s\, the band quickly earned a reputation as scene heavy-weights\, fueling a career spanning over two decades. \nFeaturing Josh Middleton (lead guitar & vocals)\, Ali Richardson (drums)\, Conor Marshall (guitar)\, and Ben Thomas (bass)\, Sylosis have earned their place as a vital\, uncompromising voice in modern heavy music. With countless tours\, festival appearances and consistently fierce new material under their belts\, the future is theirs.

SUMMARY:Alestorm + Battle Beast + Wizardthrone
DESCRIPTION:From humble beginnings playing shows to farm animals in a field somewhere in Eastern Scotland\, Alestorm have evolved into an international party machine hellbent on conquering album charts and festival stages throughout the world\, with their infectious brand of ‘Pirate Metal’ and their dashing good looks. \nSomehow they’ve managed to convince hundreds of thousands of people from New Zealand to Argentina to Lithuania and everywhere inbetween (except Paraguay)\, that it’s cool to wear a pirate hat and sing stupid songs about getting drunk and stealing ships. So prepare your spleens\, because Alestorm are coming to kick ass and chew gum. And they’re all out of ass.

SUMMARY:Foggy Notions presents: Gold Panda
DESCRIPTION:Gold Panda returns with TON UP\, a brilliantly stubborn new album for Studio Barnhus: eight rough-hewn dance tracks and two cozy little service-station interludes\, all crafted with the robust determination of a producer who knows that 140 bpm is not so much a tempo as a way of life.\n\nMade with Derwin Dicker‘s unmistakable sampler-bashing touch\, the tracks on Ton Up carry the raw knock of old-school hip-hop instrumentals\, pushed through pumping house-music machinery and ready to cause absolute trouble on any half-decent sound system.\n\nHere you’ll find zero of that dreaded\, over-explained “maturity” usually demanded of beloved electronic artists several albums deep into the game. Instead\, Gold Panda just sounds as happily locked in as ever\, carelessly chasing the physical joys of pressure\, swing and repetition.\n\nTON UP is functional\, funny and oddly tender club music\, arriving just when the world needed it the most (June 26 that is.)

SUMMARY:Good Health Good Wealth
DESCRIPTION:The slice-of-life narrative of their recent single ‘Full Circle’ showed that Good Health Good Wealth possess a flair for making life’s minor moments feel like they’re worth documenting. The track hurried their rise\, adding a Radio X session\, shows with Noisy and Hard-Fi\, and a place in The Sun’s New Faces For 2025 to their burgeoning status after previous Radio 1 support from Jack Saunders and Sian Eleri. Now the duo live up to that support as they share the new single ‘The Cafe’. \nForget about your bougie hipster breakfast destinations\, as Good Health Good Wealth instead take us into a classic old school cafe beloved by locals who have seemingly been attending since the dawn of time. As sausages sizzle and cutlery clanks\, it’s the setting for a break-up song with a difference: in this case\, a final summit that won’t deliver any closure for either party. Bruce Breakey’s distinct spoken word drawl breaks into a passionate\, soulful flow as the emotion of the story takes over\, while producer Simon Kuzmickas shows his versatility with sparse beats\, mournful slide guitar and a redemptive psych-rock finale. \nBruce says\, “A break-up only ever works\, at least from my experience\, if you cut it off completely. The odd catch-up back down your favourite cafe is never going to be that simple. This song is about navigating that tricky grey area between the initial break-up and the actual break-up. As comforting\, familiar or exciting it may be to meet up for a chat\, someone has to rip off the plaster eventually.” \nBoth ‘The Cafe’ and ‘Full Circle’ provide a taste of the relatable city snapshots and diverse sonics that permeate their upcoming EP. The pair have cited the likes of Ian Dury\, The Streets and Madness as influences\, and they’re all present in their observational songs. Yet this is music for 2025\, its stories replicated within walking distance of your front door and underpinned by touches of contemporary and ‘90s-tinged electronica. \nWhile Bruce is a lifelong east Londoner\, Simon was born 1300 miles away in Vilnius\, Lithuania and was raised on a diet of British culture. Perhaps English life wasn’t entirely how he imagined it to be\, but he very naturally fit in amongst the nation’s dry wit and almost comic pessimism. Naturally they met – where else? – in a pub. \nGood Health Good Wealth played their first international gig late last year when they hit Viva Sounds in Sweden. Next up is a London headline show at The Lower Third which sold-out three months in advance. Their schedule also includes a Birmingham show with Oneda\, their New York debut at The New Colossus Festival\, and the Get Together Festival which features headliners English Teacher.

SUMMARY:Jarlath Regan - Craic Pot
DESCRIPTION:After selling out theatres across Ireland and around the world\, Regan returns with his sharpest\, funniest and most relatable show yet. Known for his viral daily clips and pitch-perfect observations of Irish life\, Craic Pot sees Jarlath diving headfirst into the unrelenting lunacy of modern living — from family life and social awkwardness to that uniquely Irish ability to find humour in absolutely everything. \nPacked to the gills with brand new material\, Craic Pot is a masterclass in storytelling\, packed with razor-sharp standup\, ridiculous real-life moments and the kind of laugh-out-loud honesty that has made Regan a household name. \nFollowing millions of online views and multiple sell-out tours across the U.S.\, Canada\, Australia\, the U.K. and Ireland\, Jarlath is making good on his promise to deliver a brand new show every single year. And in 2027\, he’s turning up the heat. \nIn a world that feels increasingly chaotic\, Craic Pot is the perfect antidote — a night of big laughs\, shared experiences and the kind of feel-good comedy that leaves audiences walking out lighter than they came in. As one critic put it\, Regan remains “the jewel in Ireland’s comedy crown” (The Examiner).

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.

The tour visits such stops as Belvedere College\, the Gresham Hotel\, the James Joyce Statue\, Davy Byrnes\, and the National Library.\n\nThis is an excellent and fun introduction to Joyce in a bustling part of the city.\n\nThe James Joyce Centre offers two tours: Introducing Joyce’s Dublin and Footsteps of Leopold Bloom.\n\nEvery Thursday\, Friday & Saturday at 11 am. 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:Slow Pulp
DESCRIPTION:Singular Artists proudly presents Slow Pulp for a headline show in the Button Factory\, Dublin on Saturday\, 30 January 2027 to celebrate the release of their upcoming album\, Melodie which comes out 18 September 2026. \n\nSlow Pulp are uniquely acquainted with the process of regrowth. Singer and guitarist Emily Massey met childhood friends Henry Stoehr (guitar)\, Alex Leeds (bass)\, and Teddy Mathews (drums) in Madison\, WI in the mid 2010s\, kicking off a decade-strong musical bond. Raised on ’90s alt-rock radio and coming of age during the 2000s indie wave\, they took a pan-American approach to rock music—transcending the genre’s inner boundaries in service of a sound critics across the board have applauded but struggled to describe – that made them stand out in the small city’s scrappy scene. But in 2018\, the lifelong Wisconsinites left their comfy surroundings for the midwest’s metropolis\, transplanting from Madison’s rich soil to Chicago’s concrete grid. \n\nIf Moveys put Slow Pulp on the global stage\, on tour with the Pixies and Death Cab and Alvvays\, bands they’d bonded over in those early Madison years\, then Yard proved they belonged there. \n\nSlow Pulp started the songs that comprise their third album Melodie\, due out 18 September 2026 via ANTI-\, with nothing to prove to the public\, reflecting on past lives and past relationships forced them to reevaluate their approach and\, once again begin anew. The result is a record that balances power-pop euphoria\, acoustic heartbreak\, and the ocean of sound between them. \n\nNow they’re back on tour in 2027\, with a headline show in The Button Factory\, Dublin on Saturday\, 30 January.

SUMMARY:Bernard O’Shea: ‘Desperate House Husband’
DESCRIPTION:After years of being told what to do by his wife\, his children\, and the producers of Dancing with the Stars\, Bernard is finally stepping out of the laundry room and onto the stage to share his hilarious struggles with midlife\, marriage\, and the sheer exhaustion of modern domesticity. \n‘Desperate House Husband’ finds the co-creator of the cult-hit Republic of Telly and star of Bridget & Eamon at his most vulnerable and vitriolic. \nFrom the perils of the school run to the mystery of why he can never find anything in the fridge\, O’Shea delivers a high-octane performance that proves he is still the king of the “relatable catastrophe.” \n“Bernard O’Shea is a comedic force of nature\,” says a representative for Lisa Richards. “In ‘Desperate House Husband\,’ he leans into the chaos of his daily life\, finding the universal humor in the mundane. Whether you are a parent\, a partner\, or just someone who enjoys watching a man slowly lose his mind in suburbia\, this show is for you.” \nBernard O’Shea is one of Ireland’s most beloved comedians and broadcasters. He first burst onto the scene with his uniquely frenetic stand-up style before becoming a household name as the co-host of RTÉ’s Republic of Telly.

SUMMARY:Knox (+ Modernlove)
DESCRIPTION:Knox grew up in Ohio and fell in love with music as a kid\, obsessing over emo bands like Fall Out Boy\, All-American Rejects\, Boys Like Girls\, Panic! At The Disco or Hawthorne Heights. \nAfter he made the move to Nashville in 2019\, working as a songwriter and honing his craft\, he eventually released his own solo career\, releasing “Sneakers”\, which surpassed 49 million Spotify streams. Everything kicked into high gear with the arrival of “Not The 1975” though. It peaked in the Top 15 of the Adult Pop Airplay Chart\, gathered 63 million-plus streams\, and catapulted the success of his 2025 debut LP\, Going\, Going\, Gone. Of the latter\, Melodic Magazine raved\, “The debut is impressive in length and lyrical volume\,” and GRAMMY.com promised\, “Knox’s debut album\, Going\, Going\, Gone\, perfectly captures the essence of his artistry.” Marveling at his sold-out Webster Hall show\, Knox recalled\, “the crowd down on the floor generated the kind of palpable electricity reserved for artists on the cusp of the proverbial rocket ship.” \nHe also graced the bills of festivals such as Lollapalooza and Hangout Fest\, appeared on tracks with Bilmuri and HARDY\, and earned co-signs from Ed Sheeran and Matty Healy. After piling up hundreds of millions of streams\, selling out shows\, and earning critical acclaim\, he returns home sonically and emotionally on his second full-length album\, My Midwest Best [Atlantic Records].

Selling out shows worldwide and stacking up over 150 million streams\, the Oxford\, UK quartet Harmony Cavelle [vocals]\, Harry Winks [guitar]\, Cody Jones [drums]\, and Ollie Green [bass]—have vaulted to the doorstep of global stardom powered by hyper-charged performances and the kind of generational bangers that could light up TikTok or Warped Tour and OZZfest in the same weekend. \nAs the story goes\, childhood friends Harmony and Harry grew up together and performed in a succession of groups. While attending university\, they posted an ad in search of kindred spirits interested in conjuring a sound akin to “Royal Blood meets Charli xcx.” Cody and Ollie would dutifully heed the call\, locking South Arcade’s lineup in place during 2022. A diligent grind saw them gain traction with the singles like “DANGER” and “Nepo Baby\,” paving the way for the standout 2005 EP in 2024\, which boasted a trio of hits that have each eclipsed 20M streams and counting in “HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER” (20M+)\, “stone cold summer” (24M+)\, and title track “2005” (26M+). The band only increased their momentum with a string of high energy singles (“Supermodels\,” “FEAR OF HEIGHTS\,” and “Drive Myself Home”) released individually throughout 2025 before being gathered together alongside brand new tracks “Bleed Out” and the surprisingly intimate “Blood Runs Warm” on their PLAY EP at the end of the year. \nOn both sides of the pond\, unanimous tastemaker praise has followed in the collective’s wake. Alternative Press pegged them among “26 of the most exciting rising artists to watch in 2026\,” going on to christen them “a formidable facet of the future pop-punk landscape.” Beyond a popular Audiotree Live performance and love from BBC Radio 1\, KERRANG! assured\, “given their status as a band on the tip of many tongues – that more capacious rooms beckon\,” and DORK marvelled at how\, “South Arcade are already speeding through the boss levels.” They’ve already sold out tours on multiple continents – including their first ever North American headline run last fall – and have a packed 2026 ahead of them: supporting 5 Seconds of Summer on their arena tour in the UK and Europe this spring; hitting festival stages at Download and TRSMT\, and returning stateside for Summer School ‘26 and the Vans Warped Tour.

SUMMARY:Ariel Posen
DESCRIPTION:For Ariel Posen\, songwriting and guitar playing have always gone hand-in-hand. He has spent a decade building a bridge between those two worlds\, balancing his work as an acclaimed instrumentalist\, including collaborations with artists ranging from John Mayer to Tom Jones\, with solo albums rooted in melody and autobiographical storytelling. The result is a career that is every bit as diverse as his music. With performances at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival\, his own Fender Stratocaster signature model\, and a powerful voice that matches his fretwork\, Posen continues to explore uncharted territory\, blurring the lines between genre and generation along the way. \nHis latest album\, Bannatyne\, sees Posen return to the place where everything began. Named after an avenue in his hometown of Winnipeg\, Manitoba\, the record reflects on the past while embracing the future\, combining larger-than-life guitar riffs and 1990s rock influences with the groove-driven textures and sonic exploration that have become hallmarks of his work. \n  \n“This is an album about coming home\,” says Posen. “It’s about looking back and appreciating where you come from\, even as you’re heading somewhere new.” \nCo-produced alongside longtime collaborator Murray Pulver\, Bannatyne is a powerful statement from an artist continually evolving his craft. The album features guest appearances from City and Colour and Kathleen Edwards\, while showcasing the dynamic songwriting\, expressive guitar work and emotional honesty that have defined Posen’s solo career. \nFollowing acclaimed releases including How Long\, Headway\, Reasons Why and the instrumental Mile End series\, Bannatyne finds Posen embracing a rawer and more instinctive approach. \n“Every record is the sound of me finding myself\, more and more\,” he says. “I’m not just a songwriter and I’m not just a guitarist. I’m both of those things.” \nRenowned for his electrifying live performances\, Posen has earned praise from audiences and critics alike\, with Rolling Stone describing him as “a modern-day guitar hero.” \nFans can expect an evening of masterful musicianship\, compelling storytelling and songs drawn from across his celebrated catalogue when he arrives at Whelan’s next February.
