BUNT’s journey is one of persistence, resilience, and unwavering dedication.

Japanese-Canadian artist, Saya Gray plays Opium this November 05th.

Saya has a unique ability to create a collage of sounds that feel both comforting and disorienting, vast yet intimate. Her releases so far, 2022’s ‘19MASTERS’ , 2023’s ‘QWERTY I’ and 2024’s 'QWERTY II' were made in periods of intense isolation, and as Saya herself describes it, she puts ‘1000 personalities in one song’. It’s this unfiltered, frenzied approach to her art that she feels is necessary to reclaim her sense of self in an ever changing world - and in the process marking her as one of the most exciting, up and coming musicians operating today. 2025 is a landmark year for Saya as she released her debut album ’SAYA” - which is by far her most personal and intimate project to date.

Tickets on sale Friday 6th of June @ 10:00am

Beverly Glenn-Copeland plays The Button Factory this October 07th, 2025.

Throughout a fifty year recording career, Beverly Glenn-Copeland's music has defied categorisation and genre, its only consistency being the extraordinary fusion of vision, technology, spirituality and place.

Tickets go on-sale Friday June 6th.

Kean Kavanagh returns to Bello Bar this October.

Tickets go on sale Thursday 1st May at 10am.

Headlining and curating this year’s festival is none other than the iconic Iggy Pop for his first show back in Dublin in 17 years. Hailed as the godfather of punk, from his trailblazing days with The Stooges in the late ’60s to his electrifying solo career, Iggy has inspired generations and set the stage for punk and grunge alike. Widely acknowledged as one of the most dynamic stage performers of all time, Iggy Pop has built a legendary career filled with both critical acclaim and fanatic cult success. Many say you should put seeing Iggy rock out on one’s “must-see” list – his fans of all generations are the first to testify to that.

Joining Iggy Pop is a lineup of exceptional artists, spanning diverse genres and talents. Among the first announced are:

THE SCRATCH from Dublin, blend heavy metal, Irish folk, stadium rock, and post-punk into a unique and genre-defying sound. The band quickly captured local attention by starting with acoustic guitars and a wooden box. Known for their constant evolution and lighthearted approach, The Scratch has built a devoted fan base across Ireland, the UK, Europe, and North America with their high-energy live shows.

Dublin-based GILLA BAND defy categorisation, fusing noise-rock guitars, techno-inspired drums, and intense, wailing vocals to create a sound that’s both chaotic and captivating. Frontman Dara Kiely’s surreal, witty lyrics channel rock’s raw, self-destructive energy, cementing the band as a cornerstone of Ireland’s alternative scene. Known for electrifying, apocalyptic live shows, Gilla Band signed with Rough Trade in 2015, debuting with Holding Hands With Jamie. After a celebrated comeback with The Talkies, they’re back with Most Normal, featuring singles like “Eight Fivers” that have already topped The Guardian‘s charts.

Dublin’s SPRINTS are rapidly rising with their Top 20 debut album, Letter To Self, and major support slots for IDLES and Pixies. Their powerful performances at Glastonbury and All Together Now have cemented their reputation for raw, resilient songwriting that tackles personal trauma. Praised by NME, DIY, and Pitchfork, Letter To Self has made SPRINTS a standout in modern rock. As they introduce new material and Feast, the band’s relentless momentum shows no sign of slowing.

London-based WARMDUSCHER are a defiantly unconventional fixture in the UK’s underground scene, blending post-punk grit with dark, off-kilter humour that’s all their own. Born out of London’s DIY spaces, they’ve built a reputation for chaotic, unpredictable live shows and a sound that defies genre. With a devoted cult following, Warmduscher continues to push boundaries. Check out their single, ‘Fashion Week’, from their upcoming album, set for release on 15 November 2024.

Brighton duo LAMBRINI GIRLS – Phoebe Lunny (vocals/guitar) and Lilly Macieira (bass) – announce their debut album Who Let The Dogs Out, dropping January 10, 2025, via City Slang, with lead single “Big D*** Energy” (censored spelling). Produced by Daniel Fox (Gilla Band) and mixed by Seth Manchester (Mdou Moctar, Battles), the album captures today’s chaos with sharp humour and explosive energy.

Polish band TRUPA TRUPA blends post-punk, psychedelia, and art-rock to create dark, immersive soundscapes that explore themes of memory and existential unrest. Known for their intense live shows and haunting lyrics, Trupa Trupa continues to push boundaries in experimental rock.

In The Meadows isn’t just another festival – it’s a one-day dive into music culture, set on the scenic grounds of IMMA. Join us onJune 7th, 2025, for standout performances, raw energy, and a community vibe crafted for true music fans. This is live music at its best, right in the heart of Dublin.

Best known for his single “Girls”, released in August 2022, and for producing the song “Guess” by Charli XCX, The Dare has just announced a show at Vicar St, Dublin on 18th March!

We welcome Italian electro-pop powerhouse duo Gioli & Assia to Vicar Street on Tuesday, 12th November 2024 as part of their upcoming Resurrection World Tour! Tickets go on sale this Friday, 22nd March at 9AM.

Gioli & Assia aren't just musicians; they're a creative phenomenon. Their journey began with a chance encounter online, fueled by a shared passion for music and before long, their raw talent and captivating videos were taking the internet by storm. After enthralling audiences with their unique sound, they've chosen to reclaim their artistic freedom, reigniting their independent spirit with the launch of their own label, Diesis Records.

Marking their liberation, April 2024 will see the couple make a powerful return to their label with the release of their long-awaited EP RESURRECTION (ACT I). Flexing the full creative control they have become renowned for, the brand-new project has once again been written, performed, produced, sung and recorded entirely on their own. A captivating soundscape, the our track EP sees the partners weave together their signature blend of light and shadow, classical elegance with contemporary urgency. Powerful melodies, Assia's mesmerizing vocals, and Gioli's virtuosity on instruments like the haunting handpan, not forgetting the sublime video accompaniments, create an unforgettable sonic and visual experience that transcends boundaries.

Sadie Jean will make her Irish debut on Tuesday, September 3rd at the Button Factory, as part of her “Simple Like 17” headline tour. Tickets go on sale Friday, 3rd May at 10am.

Sadie Jean’s music strikes a universal chord akin to a late-night chat with your best friend. She connected with millions of people over the release of her debut single “WYD Now?”, a tear-jerking plea to an old flame to try and get it right one more time. Since its release, the track has surpassed 150m Spotify streams and became RIAA gold-certified, solely due to its pure, raw emotion. Multi-platinum artist Rod Wave also sampled the track on his song “2018,” marking Sadie’s Hot 100 debut, as well as inviting Sadie to guest perform the song on a 30-date sold out arena tour.

In 2022, she released her second single, “Locksmith,” an equally moving ballad that itself has blown past 100m Spotify streams. These deeply vulnerable singles became the blueprint for the tracks that would make up the rest of her debut project "Simple Like 17." Throughout the project, Sadie Jean pairs smart and cutting lyrics with timeless, uncomplicated arrangements, unveiling something powerful: that sometimes, while longing for another person, you're truly seeking yourself.

After a lifetime of work and a complete project, Sadie Jean is bringing the Simple Like 17 Tour to 17 cities across North America for an intensely crafted show experience. She’ll be performing the project in its entirety in small venues hoping to connect with each audience member individually. Make sure to catch Sadie Jean’s first ever headline tour “Simple Like 17” before it sells out.

Strictly Over 16s. Doors open at 7pm.

The legendary Joe Goddard brings his live performance to Workman’s on the 31st August 2024 following the release of his hotly anticipated third studio album “Harmonics”. Tickets go on sale this Friday, 21st June at 9AM.

Alongside his work with Hot Chip, The 2 Bears, and HARD FEELINGS, Joe Goddard keeps busy as a solo artist, songwriter, producer, DJ, remixer, and co-founder of the Greco-Roman record label. Across all his projects, he is driven by a hunger for experimentation, an innate understanding of dance, pop, and indie music’s inner workings, and a heartfelt love of collaboration. Joe embraces the role of ‘producer’ on a musical, practical, and spiritual level. His infatuation with dance music began as a teenager in the ’90s, attending clubnights where he progressed from indie and hip hop to drum’n’bass to house and garage.

Harmonics is Joe Goddard’s third solo studio album, following 2009’s Harvest Festival and 2017’s Electric Lines. Rooted in instinct and empathy, and featuring a diverse range of talents, Harmonics is not just a title but a promise fulfilled – an unbridled celebration of compassion, collaboration, and creation.

Jorja Smith makes her long-awaited Belfast debut as part of her “Falling or Flying” tour on the 3rd August 2024 in Ulster Hall. Tickets go on sale this Friday, 22nd March at 9AM.

Still only 26 years old, Jorja has been making waves in the music world for close to a decade. Hailing from Walsall in the West Midlands, she has already won a host of awards, including two BRIT awards for Rising Star in 2018, and Best British Female Solo Artist in 2019, as well as a Grammy nomination for Best New Artist in 2019. She has collaborated with a number of international stars including Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Stormzy, Burna Boy & more.

Despite this success, Smith has often struggled with overwhelming pressure in the public eye. Her latest album, "Falling or Flying," symbolises this struggle and delves into her journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Working with her old friends DAMEDAME*, it’s a sonically vast record – sometimes sleek and shiny R&B, sometimes vibey and heated UK funky, elsewhere intense and raw alternative. Lyrically, she delves into relationships – friendships, romances, the press, the music industry; but mainly, the one she has with herself.

We are delighted to announce several new additions to our inaugural In The Meadows festival.

Joining the bill are MERCURY REV, RACHAEL LAVELLE, TARA CLERKIN TRIO, MOHAMMAH SYFKAN, ANDY THE DOORBUM, ANA PALINDROME & CORMAC BEGLEY.

In The Meadows is a brand new one-day event in the heart of Dublin City Centre, on the grounds of the Irish Museum of Modern Art. It will take place on Saturday, June 08th, 2024, headlined and co-curated by mercury-nominated Irish band LANKUM who will perform their biggest show on home soil to date, and one of the only chances to see the band in Dublin in 2024. Among the other artists featured are MOGWAI, BLACK COUNTRY, NEW ROAD, JOHN FRANCIS FLYNN & THIS IS THE KIT.

Tickets are on sale now via Ticketmaster Ireland & usual outlets priced from €59.35 including booking fee, plus service charge.

Dublin four-piece LANKUM (brothers Ian and Daragh Lynch, Cormac MacDiarmada, and Radie Peat) have gained worldwide acclaim for their first three albums and captivating, euphoric live performances. Their fourth album “False Lankum” has been universally heralded, reaching no.2 in the Official Irish Album Charts on release, receiving a Mercury Prize nomination and significantly eclipsing the success of their previous album, the Choice Award winning, “The Livelong Day”. The record heralds a new stage in the metamorphosis of the band into a modern-day powerhouse, drawing on traditional and primitive methods to create bold and singular music that transcends its folk roots: an entrancing, widescreen sound incorporating experimental overtones and rumbling drones wedded with classic songwriting, close vocal harmonies, and timeless narratives. Their live show has evolved into a deeply moving collective experience, with the band performing together as though they are a single lung: sounds expand and collapse from indistinguishable mouths, lungs, fingers, keys, and feet, while a wall of amp stacks push the intensity of the show to new levels. This is their only Dublin show for 2024.

With near-mythological cult status and two decades of noise-making under their belts, MOGWAI are sure to enthrall the RHK audience. The Scottish post-rock purveyors are still at the top of their game, inviting their audiences on a journey through their wall of sound. No doubt their set will feature tracks from Mogwai’s 2021 number-one record, “As The Love Continues”, as well as classic Mogwai tracks from their innovative career.

BLACK COUNTRY, NEW ROAD have returned with their second album, “Ants From Up There”, released on Ninja Tune. Following on almost exactly a year to the day from the release of their acclaimed debut “For the First Time”, the band have harnessed the momentum from that record and run full pelt into their second, with “Ants From Up There” managing to strike a skillful balance between feeling like a bold stylistic overhaul of what came before, as well as a natural progression.

Singer and multi-instrumentalist JOHN FRANCIS FLYNN whose work centers around traditional and folk. A musician in demand, John has recorded with artists such as Lankum and Ye Vagabonds. His incredibly moving debut album ‘I Would Not Live Always’ received stunning reviews. He has won Best Folk Artist at the RTE Folk Awards. 

Last but not least, the hypnotic twang and sparse folk of THIS IS THE KIT. This Is The Kit, the nom de plume of Kate Stables, has been in existence since the 00s when Kate moved to Bristol and started playing and collaborating with local musicians. Now four albums in, and based in Paris, the story of This Is The Kit is itself one of time and change and listeners. It has carried Kate Stables from Winchester to Bristol to Paris, across tours and festivals, and the admiration of critics and her peers.

Just a few days after the release of Barry Can’t Swim’s long-awaited debut album ‘When Will We Land?’ - released Friday 20th October on Ninja Tune - Barry announces an impressive 2024 headline world tour. Kicking off at the start of February with stops across North America, before a string of UK and EU live dates including Vicar Street on Friday, March 15th. 

‘When Will We Land?’ marks the Edinburgh-born artist’s broadest and most diverse project yet, the 11-track project moves from deep house to jazz, from ambiance to the percussive charge of afrobeat. It’s all held together by his singular sense of purpose and that trademark vivacity; deftly finessed, it’s an album that works as a form of musical autobiography. 

The new album and today's tour announcement arrive hot on the heels of a momentous few months for Barry with stand-out DJ sets at this year's Glastonbury, an already lauded Boiler Room performance at FLY Open Air festival, a Mahogany session and high profile shows across the world (Amnesia in Ibiza alongside Kerri Chandler, Honey Dijon and Nina Kraviz). Barry also recently performed a stand-out set at Warehouse Project ‘Boiler Room Presents’ to a packed out room alongside Overmono, DJ EZ, Casisdead and Moodymann, played Portola festival to a huge crowd, played multiple sold-out headline shows and supported Ben Böhmer in New York, LA and Chicago. 

The Edinburgh-born musician caught attention with a series of releases in 2020, before signing to Ninja Tune imprint Technicolour for his sensational 2022 EP ‘More Content’ (which has amassed over 20 million streams to date) and ‘Amor Fati’ (35 million to date). To add to this Billboard named him as one of their 10 Dance Artists To Watch, while influential voices such as The Blessed Madonna and Annie Mac are huge fans. More recently, his newest single “Always Get Through To You” was Clara Amfo’s Hottest Record. 

‘When Will We Land?’ is out now on Ninja Tune.

British electronic duo Overmono return to Dublin following the release of their highly anticipated debut album, out via XL Recordings last Friday. The album has received rave reviews such as;

"UK rave history is distilled to perfection" - The Guardian

On their debut album 'Good Lies', the pair retain all the hallmarks of the project so far, while unashamedly dialling up the ambition; the hooks here are sweeter, the beats harder." - NME

"it wasn't until they started making music together as Overmono that they became a sensation. When the duo made their Coachella debut last month, the energy they spent the past seven years building up was readily apparent." - Stereogum

"Overmono are the UK's next massive dance duo" - The Face Magazine

"Good Lies' is setting aside Overmono from the rest.

The epitome of 2023 sound, the album breathes a continuously dynamic aura" - CLASH

"Epic emotional resonance, raw beats, a timeless combination" - DJ Mag

"Sounding so good, rising from the underground to become one of the hottest & exciting acts in electronic music!" - Danny Howard, BBC Radio 1
