Hailing from County Kildare in Ireland, Peco draws inspiration from the culture, the land and the people around him, both dark and light. He has a long and varied history in the music world, playing in bands since he was a teenager, crossing genres of Rock, Americana and Folk music. Before performing under the Peco moniker, he was the singer-songwriter behind folk-rock act Valentine Black. The band enjoyed critical acclaim for their album ‘Desire Lines’ and the three singles lifted from it. They toured around Ireland, the UK, America and Canada. Previous to that he played in a number of bands over the years including, prog-rock outfit Bright Light Fiasco, and folk-pop band Pedestrienne, both of whom enjoyed local success with singles and high profile Irish gigs. 

Ruby  Moss turned 14 years old on Monday 26^th July 2021 – the same day that her first original song was released across digital platforms. Ruby’s Song entered the iTunes charts the same day as its release and went to number 1 on the following day.  Ruby is originally from Trim, County Meath.  Ruby and her mum moved to Cabra in Dublin when Ruby started in St Patrick’s Cathedral Choir School.  Ruby ended up in the choir school because it was the closest school to her mum’s work and Ruby loved music.  Ruby had been learning piano with Bernadette Belton in Trim and had been attending Musical Theatre Classes with Carmel McKiernan in Limelight Theatrics before starting in the choir school.

Dream Eyes is the artistic alias of Tadhg Collins, originally from Limerick, currently based in Dublin. Taking inspiration from a diverse range of genres such as dream pop, indie rock, and classical music, Dream Eyes is less about fitting into genres, and more about a passion for exploring sounds, and how they express nuances of emotion. That said, various artists like The Strokes, Gorillaz, Bloc Party, Kanye West, The Growlers, Caroline Rose and Charli XCX find themselves in the DNA of his music.

Twin sisters Katie and Aoife Lynch from Duleek in County Meath, Ireland, have both been singing since they could talk but it was only in 2013 when at the encouragement of family, friends and teachers, they began to sing and perform together as a musical duet. In 2017 they began busking in Dublin city and quickly built up a very strong, supportive following. On the strength of this support they released an EP entitled 'Follow our Dream' on CD which included 2 original tracks as well as some of their busking favourites. A love of songwriting was born!

Formed in 1983 and now nearly forty years on, 4,000,000 Telephones re-engage with some previously unreleased material that is as relevant today as when it was recorded back in the eighties. The five surviving members of the original line-up have been listening through the band’s archives and have decided that it’s entirely appropriate to release the previously unheard track, 'Hard Man' recorded in 1986.

Formed in 2013 with the intention of continuing the legacy of The Radiators from Space but with a main focus on recording and performing brand new material the band have certainly lived up to that mantra. To date Trouble Pilgrims have released three singles, the much-lauded double A side debut of Animal Gang Blues c/w Who Do You Love?  which was followed in 2015 by Instant Polaroid (The Man on The Bridge). The band recorded their debut album over the summer of 2017 and the resulting work ‘Dark Shadows and Rust’ received its worldwide release to widespread acclaim on Chiswick Records via Ace on 27th October 2017 with a limited edition 180g red vinyl version released in January 2018.

Paro Pablo is a working class hip-hop artist from Finglas on the northside of Dublin. In the early days Pablo was the frontman of two bands D’n’D & Low Profile, where he learned his trade enjoying moderate success in a time where Irish hip hop simply wasn’t acceptable . After a couple of tours, sold out shows and major support slots such as : Aslan, Hoodie Allen and Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, he decided to hang up the mic in 2014. Writing was always an escape mechanism for Pablo, So 2019 would be the year he decided to dust off the mic.

Hot on the heels of an RTÉ 2FM Track Of The Week with previous release ‘Breathe Easy’, Limerick four-piece Raging Sons are keeping the momentum with their new single ‘Square One’. With debut album ‘20:20’ set for release on October 22nd *, ‘Square One', mastered by Robin Schmidt (The 1975, Sam Fender, Nothing But Thieves) is their fourth recent single, and a fire-starter. “We like to think about the ‘history’ of our songs, their story and musical evolution * from one to the next,” explains Adam Reeves, the band’s drummer. “And this song… this is the sound we were striving for, all through the process recording of our album.”
