Inspired by the likes of Frank Ocean, Blood Orange and James Blake. Methodactor’s music is genre-defying, infectious and emotionally raw.The solo project of composer/producer Edward O’Mahony was created in bedrooms and home studios while in between projects over the last number of years. His music is a mix of danceable hiphop and rnb underneath honest, introspective lyrics and ear-worm melodies or what he has dubbed ‘Sadboy Pop’.
In 2024, Edward focussed his efforts on testing material out live. Playing a number of solo shows around the country and finishing his debut album. He was awarded the emerging artist bursary from DLR county council to complete this record as well as being awarded an artist grant to fund an EP launch show in Dún Laoghaire.
Methodactor’s debut EP A Fool’s Errand is due for release in September of this year. Recorded and produced entirely by methodactor and mixed/mastered by Killian Taylor (Curtisy, Ahmed with Love), the album is both a soundtrack to the mind of an anxiety ridden artist as well as an energetic pop record with a strong emotional catharsis.
The first single, I wanna cry was released in February of this year accompanied by a self-directed video shot by longtime collaborator Alba Fernandez. The song received praise across the Irish scene, getting mentions in Hot Press, Golden Plec, Genuine Irish and starfish magazine. While also getting radio play on RTE 2fm, Pulse, 2XM and on Tilt on Dublin City FM. This was followed by a co-headline show with Leah Rose in Crowbar Terrace at the end of February.
