SUMMARY:The Bureau De Change Song Contest
DESCRIPTION:It is that beautiful time of year again. The sun is shining\, the flowers are blooming and the comedians are singing. \nThe Collaborations Agency and MCD are delighted to announce the return of The Bureau De Change Song Contest for its sixth instalment\, taking place at Dublin’s iconic 3Olympia Theatre on Friday 15th May 2026. \n\n\nCreated by acclaimed comedian Tony Cantwell\, The Bureau De Change Song Contest has become one of the most anticipated nights in Ireland’s comedy calendar. A riotous celebration of music\, mischief and outright mayhem\, the show sees some of the country’s most beloved comedians channel the spirit of Eurovision in a gloriously unhinged parody spectacle. \nEach performer selects a country\, writes and produces an original song from scratch\, and competes live on stage for the coveted crown. The result is a fiercely competitive\, joyfully chaotic showdown that blends sharp satire with full-throttle musical performance. It is Eurovision\, but through a distinctly Irish comedic lens. \nNow in its sixth year\, the contest continues to grow in scale and ambition\, with previous editions earning sell-out crowds and a devoted following. The 2026 event promises to be the biggest yet\, bringing together an exceptional line-up of talent including Tony Cantwell\, Michael Fry\, Justine Stafford\, Ali Fox\, John Doran\, Killian Sundermann\, Kevin McGahern\, Alison Spittle\, Meg Reilly\, Peter McGann\, Sadhbh McLoughlin\, Ryan Carrick\, with more acts to be announced. \nTony Cantwell said: “This show started as a chaotic idea that refused to behave. Six years on\, it has taken on a life of its own. Every year the bar gets higher\, the costumes get bolder and the songs get more outrageous. It is everything Eurovision represents\, just with more jokes and fewer rules.”

SUMMARY:QOW TRIO -The Rule of Three Album Tour
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the return of the generation-spanning powerhouse QOW Trio as they launch their fearless third album\, The Rule of Three. \n\n\n\n\nThree is the magic number”. Join us for an evening with QOW Trio\, a unique ensemble that bridges the gap between jazz legends and the new vanguard. Their latest work\, The Rule of Three\, takes the deep tradition of the classic piano-less tenor trio—steeped in melody and swing—and pushes it into the adventurous “uncharted hinterlands” of free improvisation. \nFrom the influences of Sonny Rollins and Duke Ellington to the fierce energy of Albert Ayler and even themes from classic cowboy movies\, this performance promises “a surprise at every turn\,” delivered with total sincerity and a driving desire to bring the audience along for the ride. \nSpike Wells (Drums): A true legend of British jazz. Celebrating his 80th birthday and the 65th year of an extraordinary career\, Spike has provided the beat for icons like Tubby Hayes\, Stan Getz\, and Roland Kirk. He was even a student of the great Philly Joe Jones. \nRiley Stone-Lonergan (Tenor Saxophone): Hailing from Galway\, Ireland\, Riley is a Yamaha Jazz Scholar and a rising star on the London scene. His “boundless creative imagination” and stimulating original compositions are the heart of the trio’s modern sound. \nEddie Myer (Bass): Representing the diversity of “Gen X\,” Eddie provides the “heavy gut-string” foundation. A staple of the Brighton jazz scene and director of the New Generation Jazz project\, he brings a big-toned\, swinging presence inspired by the likes of Richard Davis and Henry Grimes. \nCelebrate the return of the generation-spanning powerhouse QOW Trio as they launch their fearless third album\, The Rule of Three. \n\n\n\n\nThe Music\nExpect a setlist that flows seamlessly through: \n\nOriginals: Such as the confident swagger of the title track “The Rule of Three”.\nReimagined Classics: A “woozy waltz” rendition of Strayhorn’s Lush Life.\nWild Cards: The unpredictable\, “tag-team” improvisation of Kurt Angle and the haunting energy of Ayler’s Ghosts.

SUMMARY:THE HANDSOME FAMILY
DESCRIPTION:The Handsome Family today announce a UK and Irish tour to mark the re-release of their classic album “Singing Bones”. The album was the 6th album from the husband and wife outfit of Brett & Rennie Sparks and was the first record from the band since moving away from the midwestern alternative country scene of Chicago\, Illinois to the desert southwest of Albuquerque\, New Mexico. Here their songs became infused with the desert sun and crawling reptiles. Mariachi and Morricone – Western Gothic\, if you will. The record was released in 2003. Ten years later\, the desert mystery “Far From Any Road” was used as the theme for HBO’S “True Detective.” The song became a worldwide hit. Now for the first time\, it will be released on Vinyl and Deluxe CD\, with bonus material. The tour sees the band return for 2 nights at their London home-from-home The Union Chapel \nRennie Sparks says of that time: \n“It was a hot July afternoon in 2001 when the fire ants attacked me. I walked right over an anthill on my way to trim the cacti. The ants quickly swarmed my leg and began biting viciously again and again. I spent the rest of the day on the couch moaning in pain. Deep within the agony I heard a high pitched sound. I heard the ant queen calling to me from out beneath the driveway. I got up and wrote the lyrics to “Far From Any Road.” The ant queen’s magic is in every word of every song on this record. She is the hole\, the ghost\, the wild wind and the fallen peaches. How else can I explain that “Singing Bones” is still alive and well at 23.” \nSince its release\, “Far From Any Road” has accumulated more than 45 M YouTube views and 153 M Spotify streams\, a clear testimony to its huge cultural reach and lasting impact.

SUMMARY:THE COSMIC DEAD - WORKMAN'S CLUB - DUBLIN
DESCRIPTION:ASCENSION & U:MACK & HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS PRESENT THE COSMIC DEAD WITH SPECIAL GUESTS WILD ROCKET \n\n\n\n\nThe Cosmic Dead are an amorphous blob of space rock energy hailing from Glasgow\, Scotland. Their exploratory compositions often reach levels of sonic destruction through reflective repetition and visceral harmony. \nThe band has taken many forms since forming in 2010 and has been declared ‘The loudest psychedelic rock band on the planet.” by legendary compere Kozmik Ken. At the base of the current sonic obliteration team is a rhythm section of Tommy Duffin and Omar Aborida\, a thunderous and cohesive unit which is then further propelled into the outer realms by Luigi Pasquini providing frantic italo synthesized electronics along with Calum Calderwood’s mind bending\, sky-shattering fiddle acrobatics. \n‘Beyond The Beyond’ is the highly anticipated tenth studio album from inter-dimensional space travelling explorers The Cosmic Dead\, the album takes listeners on a four track expedition into the deepest cosmos of the band. Recorded at Dystopia Recording Studio in Glasgow\, ‘Beyond The Beyond’ features the riff rolling rhythm section of Tommy Duffin on drums and Omar Aborida on bass guitar alongside soaring fiddle acrobatics from Calum Calderwood and electronic textural bleeps and bloops from Luigi Pasquini on synthesizers\, all wah laden and with phasers set to destroy – Turn on\, tune in and immerse yourself in the sound of The Cosmic Dead.\n“If the rings of Saturn could sing\, this is the sound they would make.” – Zero Tolerance
