SUMMARY:6 Tracks\, a Series of Conversations\, Music and Performance at Hen’s Teeth
DESCRIPTION:Night-Time Economy Grassroots Music Venues Support Scheme\nHen’s Teeth is delighted to announce the return of 6 Tracks – their much-loved conversation and performance series – in their Blackpitts venue for a new show event season running monthly from July through November 2026. \nEach evening\, a musician sits down with hosts Laura Twagirayezu (aka Big Cheeks) or Sally Cinnamon to talk through six tracks – the songs that have shaped their sound\, their life\, the way they hear the world and how it impacted their craft\, followed by a live performance into the evening. Think Tiny Desk meets Desert Island Discs. \nThe series will begin with the incredible Sorcha Richardson on Thursday\, 30th July. 6 Tracks will then continue monthly with a line up of Ireland’s most talented and inspiring artists\, including Efé\, Brigid Mae Power\, Saoirse Miller and a very special guest to close out the series to be announced. \n6 Tracks at Hen’s Teeth is kindly supported by the Department of Culture’s Night-Time Economy Grassroots Music Venues Support Scheme. \n\n  \nEvent details\nDoors from 6:30pm till late \nWhen? Monthly from July – November\, full line up and dates below \nTickets: €15 per night including booking fees from Eventbrite. \nWhere: Hen’s Teeth\, Blackpitts\, Dublin 8\, D08A9FD \n\nAbout the Acts\nSorcha Richardson (30th July)\nSorcha Richardson is an Irish singer and songwriter. She rose to critical acclaim from her debut album First Prize Bravery\, which was an evocative depiction of young adulthood\, a time during which she ventured from home in Dublin to New York\, Los Angeles and back again. Her follow up album Smiling Like an Idiot cemented her status as one of Ireland’s most revered songwriters and saw her tour North America\, Europe and Australia\, both as a headliner and as a special guest for artists such as Snow Patrol\, Mitski and Dermot Kennedy. \nShe returns this September 2026 with her third album\, Draw The Outline. Made after relocating to West Kerry\, it’s her most intimate and reflective record to date – trading synth-led textures for acoustic guitar\, woodwinds\, saxophone\, Hammond organ and piano\, and turning her gaze inward. \nBrigid Mae Power (27th August)\n \nBrigid Mae Power’s music never quite settles on solid ground. The Irish singer-songwriter sits between past and present\, between traditional and modern forms\, between the heaven in her voice and the earthbound epiphanies of her words. There’s something distinctively Irish in her sound\, delivered with a freshness and emotional rawness that feels entirely her own. \nShe’s released three albums to date\, including her acclaimed 2022 record Head Above the Water\, which was Rough Trade’s Album of the Month and earned praise from Pitchfork\, Mojo\, Uncut\, The Guardian and The Irish Times. Her albums blend traditional folk and country into something that feels both personal and wide-reaching. \nHer most recent record\, Songs for You\, is a heartfelt collection of covers dedicated to her father\, reworking songs by Roy Orbison\, Tom Verlaine\, Neil Young and Cass McCombs into something minimal\, intimate and entirely her own. \nEfé (24th September)\n \nEFÉ is an Irish artist hailing from Dublin. EFÉ released her debut EP What Should We Do This Summer in October 2020 which was recorded in her bedroom with the help of her friends. Her music is a sunny slice of bedroom pop\, evoking images of blue skies on a summer’s day using shimmering synth pads and funky\, modulated guitar tones. EFÉ sets herself apart from other artists with the unique and playful groove that provides the grounding for her DIY style\, and definitely marks her as one to watch from the emerging Irish scene. Her music is effortlessly nostalgic\, pulling on indie-tinged memories of the late 1990s and early 2000s. \nAfter signing to US label Fader; home to artists such as Clairo – she leaned further into her rock influences for her most recent single releases in 2024\, Truth Truth\, 2000Seven and you say that I’m crazy\, lo-fi indie tracks that make space for guitars to soar. As she puts it\, “In earlier projects I was scared to go full force with the rock sound\, but this year I thought\, let me just do it.” \nSaoirse Miller (29th October)\n \nSaoirse Miller is a Dublin-based singer-songwriter and producer whose music is rooted in Irish folklore and mythology and a lifelong fascination with the otherworldly. Her sound – spanning experimental folk\, ambient textures and ethereal vocal production – is less about genre and more about world-building\, creating somewhere else entirely to disappear into. \nInfluenced by Florence and the Machine\, Grouper\, Lisa O’Neill and the poetry of W.B. Yeats\, Saoirse writes songs that transform personal feeling into something mythic. Her connection to place runs deep – her grandparents are from Mizen Head in West Cork\, and it’s a landscape she returns to again and again\, in her music as much as in life. \nHer debut EP\, Birds\, was written and produced entirely by Saoirse herself\, with each track designed to blend and interlude into the next as one continuous body of work. Mixed and mastered to tape by Karl Barnes\, Birds channels Irish traditional music and folklore through an electroacoustic lens\, resulting in a sound that feels both faded and familiar. \nAbout Laura Twagirayezu\nRwandan-born and Dublin-based\, Laura is a curator\, DJ and cultural connector whose work consistently brings depth and warmth to questions of music\, identity and community. Whether she’s hosting her own Lobby Lectures series\, curating listening events through her gallery UMUTI:MA\, or moving between Afrobeats\, Amapiano\, Soul and R&B in the DJ booth – she understands music as a lens. 6 Tracks is a natural home for that kind of conversation. \nAbout Sally Cinnamon\nSally Cinnamon is one of Dublin’s most well known DJs\, a fixture of Dublin’s nightlife since 2001. Her sets are genre-spanning by design\, moving fluidly between afrobeat\, techno and dubstep\, with a strong undercurrent of retro and psychedelic sound that gives her selections a relatability for all. She has also turned her hand to presenting\, hosting the Hennessy Sound Lounge\, where she interviewed Irish artists including David Kitt\, Pillow Queens\, Vivienne Dick and BP Fallon about the records that shaped their work. \nAbout Hen’s Teeth\nHen’s Teeth creates contemporary cultural experiences from Blackpitts in Dublin 8. The crew has got a love for art\, music\, food and culture and the space where they all come together – whether that’s through their own gallery & event space or for some of the interesting folks and brands that they collaborate with across the world. Previous music events include Hennessy Sound Lounge\, Move Slow & 6 Tracks. \n\nTickets & more information available at www.hensteethdublin.com

SUMMARY:ANIMALS
DESCRIPTION:“The law\, Noel. Without it\, all of us are animals in the jungle. Killing and eating and riding whatever we think we can get away with.” \n\n\nPrepare to suspend your disbelief. Then let it dissolve completely. \nUnstable realities resemble our wildest imagination in this absurdist spectacle – writ large and set loose on the national stage. \nANIMALS is a riotous and kaleidoscopic world premiere commissioned by the Abbey Theatre and based on the critically acclaimed short fiction of award-winning contemporary Irish writer Blindboyboatclub (The Gospel According to Blindboy\, Boulevard Wren\, Topographia Hibernica)\, adapted by Dan Colley (Lost Lear\, A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings). \nHidden mythologies emerge as we follow Erskine Fogarty and his fridge-freezer on the long road to Limerick\, the vengeful Pamela Furlong become a dogman\, a poitín maker haunted by a cormorant\, and a dangerous liaison between two titans of Irish history. \nThe bizarreness of life is unmasked in this roaring and roaming new work that wonders aloud if the rowdy kids down the back of class might have been onto something all along. \n  \n\nCredits:\n\nFrom the short stories of: Blindboyboatclub\nAdapted and Directed by: Dan Colley\nSet Design: Owen Boss\nCostume Design: Saileóg O’Halloran\nLighting Design: Suzie Cummins\nComposition and Sound Design: Alma Kelliher\nVideo Design: José Miguel Jimenez\nSpecial Effects Design: Richard Babington\nMovement Director: Jessie Thompson\nAccess Design: Dee Roycroft\nDramaturg: Ruth McGowan\nVoice Director: Andrea Ainsworth\nAssistant Director: Ursula McGinn\nAssistant Costume Design: LaurA Fajardo Castro\nCasting: Barry Coyle and Dawn Mac Allister\nPublicity Artwork: Sarah Moloney

SUMMARY:James Joyce Centre Walking Tours

SUMMARY:The Small Fortunes
DESCRIPTION:Formed in Warrington\, England\, The Small Fortunes started with Louis Menguy and Louis James writing together through lockdown. \nTheir debut EP\, recorded with David Radahd-Jones at Red City Studios in Manchester\, set the tone early: raw and confident. The arrival of bassist Liam Clarke and drummer Adam Christopher in 2024 — followed by Paul Glover on keys in early 2025 — completed the line up. \nBuilt on the backbone of the blues — the grit of Muddy Waters\, the drive of John Lee Hooker — and wired with the urgency of modern garage rock\, The Small Fortunes deal in energy over polish. There are shades of BRMC and The White Stripes in the mix\, but they’re not looking sideways. Everything they do pushes forward. \nTheir reputation has been built the hard way: onstage. High-impact\, no-frills\, and relentless\, every single one of their live shows has been a sell out.

SUMMARY:EZHEL
DESCRIPTION:Ezhel\, born Sercan İpekçioğlu on July 1\, 1990\, in Ankara\, Turkey\, and now a Berlin resident is one of the most influential figures in the rap scenes of Turkey and Germany. Growing up in the vibrant yet challenging streets of Ankara\, Ezhel was exposed to a diverse array of musical influences from an early age\, including reggae\, hip-hop\, and Anatolian rock. His passion for music began in his teenage years\, as he started experimenting with freestyling and performing in underground rap battles. \nEzhel’s breakthrough came with his debut album *Müptezhel* in 2017\, which quickly became a cultural phenomenon in Turkey. The album\, which blends rap with reggae and trap elements\, was lauded for its raw lyricism\, addressing themes such as urban life\, societal issues\, and the struggles of youth. Songs like “Şehrimin Tadı” and “Geceler” resonated deeply with a generation facing economic and social challenges\, establishing \nEzhel as the voice of the Turkish youth. Despite facing legal challenges\, including arrests for allegedly promoting drug use in his lyrics\, Ezhel’s popularity only grew. He became a symbol of resistance and freedom of expression in Turkey\, using his platform to highlight the realities of life for many young people in the country. His music\, characterized by its authenticity and emotional depth\, has earned him a loyal fan base not only in Turkey but also internationally. \nEzhel’s collaborations with global artists such as Aitch\, Luciano\, Gentleman and Ufo361 have further expanded his reach\, making him a prominent figure in the global hip-hop community. Today\, Ezhel continues to push the boundaries of rap music\, using his music as a powerful tool for storytelling and social commentary\, solidifying his place as a pioneering artist in the genre.

SUMMARY:Elder Island
DESCRIPTION:Following last month’s sold out return to the stage in London and Bristol\, where fans were given a \nfirst glimpse of forthcoming album Hello Baby Okay\, Elder Island share new single ‘Letters’\, out 8th April via !K7. \n\nThe band also announced a headline tour\, marking a full return to the stage. The run kicks off in \nCardiff on 21st October\, with stops in Dublin\, Glasgow\, Leeds\, Manchester\, Brighton\, Bristol and \nLondon\, including a show at London’s iconic KOKO. \n\nRecently selected by Elton John for his Apple Music show Rocket Hour\, the fourth single from the \nforthcoming album\, ‘Letters’ sees the Bristol trio take a more introspective turn. Expansive and slow \nburning in its progression\, the track unfolds through layered instrumentation\, expressive vocals and a \nsteady\, chugging rhythm that carries it forward. There is a cinematic quality to its world building\, \ndrawing on fragments of science fiction and folk imagery\, all threaded through the feeling of a long\, \nopen-ended road trip. \n\nBuilt around a driving low end groove and analogue led production\, much of the track was shaped \nusing the Dave Smith / Roger Linn Tempest\, before being expanded with Rhodes and guitar. The \nresult is a quintessential Elder Island composition\, immersive\, detailed and emotionally resonant\, \nbalancing rhythmic momentum with a sense of space and restraint.

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: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: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: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: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
