If you’re bored listening to the same old mainstream music over and over again, then this is the perfect place for you. Why not dive into some unsigned Irish bands that are turning heads right now. The music range includes lots of genres and if you can’t stop listening, why not check out one of our gig guides? That way you can go support them too! So lets go ahead and dive right in.
Empathy are an alternative rock band, citing bands like Placebo and Interpol as their influences. They are known for their ability to blend delicate and distorted guitar tones and a vocal style similar to Ian McCulloch. They originated in 2007 but it took them two years to find the unique voice, they now possess. After years of practice and perfecting their outfit, they are back at it in 2017 and working harder than ever before on the Dublin circuit. Whether you’re going to take a listen online or check out their latest gig, they should be part of your new music playlist.
Listen to: Doorway, Body Over Mind and Everlasting Drug.
Fallings are an Indie pop/folk/rock band from county Kerry. They are said to be inspired by “Artic Monkeys”, “The Beatles” and many more. After touring Europe for a while, the band returned to Ireland and has played around some of the biggest venues in the country. They played at the Rose of Tralee international festival and are said to be amazing to hear live, so keep an eye out on our gig guides. The band has also supported mainstage acts like “The Coronas”. I find their songs to be heart-warming and inspiring. So add it to that music list on a Monday morning and I promise you will feel ready for the day!
