Built and curated by graduates from one of the oldest modern music schools in Europe, these gigs will offer not only a glimpse of the next generation but also a snapshot of a truly international musical world view. From Balkan influenced pop to dreamy experimentation and soul baring songwriting, glitchy electronics to the last Seawolf, the two-night showcase will also feature a selection of debut acts selected by the headliners.
Wed 29th April
Pj A Dublin born singer/songwriter who uses his past grievances with life and trauma to call forth something greater. With a thirst for life that escapes through the cracks in sombre lyrics, his melodies stay in the mind long after first hearing.
Andrei Yolkeen The rebellious pirate of rock is more myth than man, the very last sea wolf of the planet. He has spent his whole life wandering the Baltic and northern seas and has just stepped off the ship onto the shores of Ireland to give an unforgettable performance. Every concert on the verge, on the edge, in one breath, bursting with left-field avant-garde. Armoured by the guitar, piercing vocals, and with his brother-sisters-in-arms he strikes the audience with blatantly provocative sound and poetry – get ready for a fierce celebration!
Tetiana A Ukrainian songwriter whose work moves through a poetic and introspective style. Her songs explore emotional contrasts tenderness and strength, sadness and resilience – creating a sound that feels both intimate and universal. Having written multiple successful songs for major Ukrainian artists and catching the eye of Bryan E. Miller, tetiana’s music is destined to reach a wider audience.
Plus guests 8 That / Max & Matteo / Attention Please! / The Leftovers / After 8
Thurs 30th April
Dardo A Dublin born wizard on the loop station, creating symphonies of chaotic bliss and pushing the very bounds of reality with a blend of vocal and instrumental dynamics that will leave your ears begging for more.
Altmae Estonian-Finnish singer/songwriter blessed with a voice thousands can only dream of having, and a grace that has hypnotised audiences from here to Germany using soft but explosive melodies that regularly leaves people slack jawed and inspired.
Vėtra A Lithuanian singer/songwriter whose passion can barely be contained by the soft tones of the Kanklės, a traditional harp that she has played since childhood. Through her powerful voice and atmospheric songs, Vetra blends folk roots with contemporary songwriting, creating performances that feel intimate, emotional…and a little otherworldly.
Plus guests Hick-Star / The Merfs / Project 666 / Jamie Powell / Lost Cause
