SUMMARY:Aiken Promotions presents WesGhost
DESCRIPTION:WesGhost exists at the intersection of emotion and energy\, blending 2000s pop-punk\, alternative\, and hip-hop into a sound that feels both familiar and forward-moving. \nMasked by his signature balaclava\, he strips away image to focus on connection—turning vulnerability into something loud\, distorted\, and shared. \nHis projects DON’T WORRY\, I’LL BE FINE (2024) and AM I DREAMING? (2025) dive into anxiety\, self-doubt\, and release\, helping shape the WesGhost Collective—a fan community built around feeling seen rather than fitting in. With a co-sign from Blackbear\, a Diplo collaboration on “Psychward\,” and his latest single “GASLIGHT” pushing his sound even further\, WesGhost continues to break genre rules while keeping his world rooted in honesty\, intensity\, and togetherness—with a world tour set to be announced soon.

SUMMARY:Chloe Slater
DESCRIPTION:Chloe Slater’s debut album ‘Riot Youth’ seems to unfold in the fleeting\, chaotic moments before doomsday – a coming of age record fit for the modern world. It arrives right on time in an era when hopelessness and nihilism run rife\, painting the truest portrait of what it is to be young\, British\, and brave enough to be hopeful today. Across 10 tracks\, Slater departs her signature\, succinct commentary on the issues plaguing her generation: social divide\, toxic\ninternet culture\, our dwindling sense of community\, the climate crisis and\, ultimately\, the vampirish billionaire class cashing in on our collective misery. \nSlater began carving out her witty yet pointed take on protest music with her debut EP\, ‘You Can’t Put A Price On Fun’\, in 2024\, which was swiftly followed up with ‘Love Me Please’ the following year. Both projects showcase her undeniable skill as a lyricist\, introduce her as a promising new voice in indie rock\, and see her take hold of a torch lit by great British songwriters before her – those who have also woven gold from the bleak circumstances of their own generations. On ‘Riot Youth’\, Slater shifts from these frank descriptions of society to moments of gorgeous\, gut-punching poetry\, crafting anthemic choruses and intoxicating one-liners from the gripes many of us can barely muster the words for. In doing so\, Slater has earned herself a devoted fanbase\, racking up almost 2 million likes on TikTok alone. Meanwhile\, she’s quickly making a name for herself as a live performer not to miss\, opening for Alessi Rose\, Role Model and Courtney Bartnett over the past two years\, as well as taking to the stage at Glastonbury and the prestigious BRITs Fringe showcase. \nBeyond soundtracking this peculiar moment of history\, Slater hopes ‘Riot Youth’ will shake us out of our tendency to seek constant distraction and instead prompt conversation. “We’re upset about the way the world is\, but we feel like we can’t change it\, so we go and listen to music\,” she says. “I just hope this is the kind of music that is comforting but not distracting. It’s addressing how people are feeling\, and it’s saying that we can make a change.”

SUMMARY:Feeble Little Horse
DESCRIPTION:feeble little horse is naturally delighted to present their third full-length LP\, bitknot. The album \nwas written\, arranged\, produced\, and recorded by Sebastian Kinsler\, Lydia Slocum\, and Jake \nKelley across their respective homes in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania. \nA spirited investigation into the unnatural space created between human nature and a culture of \nconvenience\, a synthesis of dirt and digital\, bitknot by feeble little horse creates a language \nwherein one can re-imbue a sanctity of interdependence away from consumptive “self- \nsufficiency” and materialism. “The album art is based on the coincidental core memory matrix\, \nwhich was used in old computers to store memory / access information using 0s and 1s. Each \ncore\, or ‘bit\,’ is accessed through the grid of wires\, like a knot that stores secret details and \nmemories.” bitknot asks that we find new modes of being through this grid\, entrusting one \nanother with the collaborative construction of these knots. This negotiation with an ever- \ndeveloping hybrid reality is expertly exemplified in the album’s production – the buoyancy of \nKinsler’s arrangements provide a perfectly balanced surface tension for the weight of Slocum’s \nmeandering introspection as they playfully harmonize against saccharine hooks\, walls of noise\, \na supercharged car battery’s worth of synths and samples dropped in the ocean of their guitar- \ndriven songwriting framework\, and some of Kelley’s most laser-focused drums to date to create \na sonic chimera that is as likely to be found nascently developing in the early aughts as some \nunknown\, chromatic future. \nRhymes written with sidewalk chalk that refuse to be erased in the Anthropocene’s acid rain of \ndestructive relationships\, Herbert Marcuse’s One-Dimensional Man manifest through the spirit \nof a young woman born in the shadow of the Steel City’s industrial ghosts\, a study of the clumsy \nalchemy of IRL and WWW – it is within these rhizomatic contradictions that bitknot proliferates.

SUMMARY:Cardinals
DESCRIPTION:Live from The Button Factory || Fri\, 20 November ’26 \nCardinals\, the five-piece hailing from Kinsale\, have been crowned “the next great guitar band to emerge from Ireland” by Rolling Stone UK and have also won high praise from NME and Stereogum. \nAfter selling out their Spring Tour to celebrate the release of Masquerade\, the band are back touring this winter\, taking it up a notch with bigger shows and bigger production. \nIt’s clear that Masquerade marks a new era for Cardinals. The making of the album has revealed something new of themselves\, opening them up as a more collaborative entity – as evidenced by closing track As I Breathe\, written just one week before they entered the studio. While much of the record’s lyrical content deals with the trials and complexities of navigating life\, the album ends on a tentatively hopeful note with the striking line “Even as we fall / I have learned the world is small / And I proceed.”

On a stroll around the inner city\, our guide will explain the real-life inspiration behind some of Joyce’s most celebrated writing\, demonstrating just how central the streetscape of the ‘Hibernian metropolis’ was to the author’s life and art. 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:Jamie McIntyre
DESCRIPTION:Jamie McIntyre started playing in pubs\, always with his eye on one day performing his own songs to people. \nIn 2024\, the singer was selected by Gavin James to join him as support in Paris on his European tour as part of Three’s City Stages initiative which also led to him working with Imelda May and performing at Electric Picnic\, followed by performances with Liverpool songwriter Jamie Webster on his sold out shows at 3Olympia in Dublin and The Telegraph Building in Belfast. \nThat summer\, he wrote an ode to his home county “Over Galway Town” which became a viral sensation with over 6.5 million streams and brought his music to far flung places across the globe. \nThis was followed by EP’s “Chapter 23” and “For Folk Sake” featuring fan favourite songs “West is Home” and “Gra” as well as “Melbourne” and “Outside The City” – all written from deeply personal experiences tied back to his love for Ireland in some way or another. \nA sold out debut run of shows across Ireland and the UK rounded off 2025 and this year has followed that trajectory with the release of new single “17 Again” and a UK & Ireland tour with U.S. indie folk band\, the 502s leading in to his own sold out Irish tour firmly putting Jamie McIntyre on the map as one to watch in 2026.

SUMMARY:This Is Lorelei
DESCRIPTION:The last few years have been transformative for Nate Amos. Between delivering breakout records both as a solo artist — under his This Is Lorelei moniker — and with his band Water From Your Eyes\, sold out shows across multiple continents\, to seeing some of today’s most influential artists cover his songs\, the ascending songwriter has found his stride. \n2024’s Box for Buddy\, Box for Star was Amos’ first attempt at an intentionally written full-length solo album\, tackling newfound sobriety through a roving tongue-in-cheek take on musical personas\, all strained through Amos’ genre-agnostic lens. It was a critical and word-of-mouth success\, spawning a deluxe version with covers and collaborations including MJ Lenderman\, Hayley Williams\, Jeff Tweedy\, Cameron Winter and many more. \nFor many years\, Amos’ This Is Lorelei project was known only to a close knit group of creatives in Chicago\, where he relocated in his early 20s and produced hundreds of albums and EP’s\, tracing the outlines for both of his prolific projects before relocating to New York. In the time since\, he’s flourished as a wildly creative polymath who is equally adept at slinging heart worn hooks and eyeball-exploding art-pop.

SUMMARY:Lavender
DESCRIPTION:Meet lavender\, a winsome London-based duo consisting of Oskar Rice and Adam Jackson. You can hear the confluence of their weirdly disconnected musical worlds merge on these songs. \nTheir influences\, which range from American Football to Burial\, Steve Reich to J Dilla\, are mixed up in a minestrone of sounds. The songs\, with these vivid textural patterns\, gossamer-thin layers of audio competing and commingling to create these magical\, melody-rich results. Big fans of sampling\, it’s hard to pinpoint exactly where they begin and Adam’s voice or Oskar’s beats end. And that’s how they like it. Multiple plays reward the listener as the music unravels and gradually reveals its secrets.

SUMMARY:Éire to Everywhere: Stories Without Borders with Katriona O’Sullivan
DESCRIPTION:Éire to Everywhere is delighted to welcome the wonderful Katriona O’Sullivan\, who many will know from her gritty and powerful memoir Poor\, recently staged as a play. She joins us at EPIC to discuss her new book Hungry\, another biography\, this time focusing on the topic of body positivity and how she has struggled with this despite academic and professional accolades. \nTicket holders should arrive about 10 minutes before 5:30pm at the Visitor Information desk within chq. There they will be escorted to the event’s location. We would ask that you arrive no later than 5:35pm\, as it’s imperative these events begin on time to ensure the best experience for the author and for our visitors. \nAbout the Book\nKatriona O’Sullivan has come a long way from the poverty\, chaos and abuse she knew growing up. A respected academic and bestselling author\, she defied every expectation placed on the teenage mother she once was. \nYet even as the accolades arrived\, old beliefs held fast. No degree\, no award\, no recognition could silence the sense that she was only worthy when her body looked the way society said it should. \nIn this fierce and fearless memoir\, Katriona pulls back the curtain on her journey: the relentless comparison to the curated bodies of strangers on the internet\, the dangerous weight-loss treatments\, the attempts to reshape herself into an impossible ideal – and how she slowly learned to accept and love herself. \nHungry is an unforgettable examination of how gender\, class and trauma shape a woman’s sense of worth. It is one woman’s story – and a rallying cry for every woman who has ever felt she had to shrink to survive. \nAbout the Author\n\nDr Katriona O’Sullivan is a professor of psychology and the bestselling r Bio author of Poor\, winner of Biography of the Year and Newcomer of the Year at the Irish Book Awards. The memoir has been translated into seven languages\, adapted into a sold-out play at Dublin’s Gate Theatre\, and remained in Ireland’s top-ten nonfiction chart for two years. A regular commentator on the BBC and across Irish and international media\, she has spoken at Westminster\, the UN and UNESCO. \n\nBorn in Coventry to Irish parents\, her early life was marked by poverty\, addiction\, teenage pregnancy and homelessness. In 1998\, she moved to Dublin\, where she entered Trinity College through the access programme and went on to earn a PhD in psychology. Now a professor at Maynooth University\, she directs the National Centre for Inclusive Higher Education and leads the award-winning STEM Passport for Inclusion\, which has supported over 10\,000 young people from underserved communities into higher education and high-status careers. \nEndorsements of Hungry\n“Raw and remarkable” – The Irish Independent \n“As profound and honest as anything I have ever read” – Liz Nugent \n“Soaring with compassion\, intelligence and hard-won wisdom” – Louise Kennedy \nEndorsements of Poor\n“O’Sullivan’s redemptive arc has had to break through the systemic discrimination” – RTÉ Bookclub \n“Grit\, courage\, and the life-changing value of self-belief” – Irish Central
