Ireland's own DIY Scuzz-Pop threesome The Love Buzz are best known for their high energy shows and hypnotic melodies. It’s a sound that blends punk, indie, and power pop.
Their debut EP Candyflip introduced them as a band willing to challenge genre norms, and their 2021 follow-up, Here Comes the Scum, built on that. The band continued to develop their sound, gaining recognition from publications like DIY Magazine, Clash, and Hot Press.
Over the years, their live shows have taken them across Ireland and beyond, including a support slot with The Darkness in early 2022.
2023 saw the release of Sing! Sing!, the first track from their upcoming EP No Different. That same year, they toured Europe and the UK, played five stages at Glastonbury, and delivered a standout set at Ireland Music Week.

In 2024, the band released No Different in April. They also made waves at Eurosonic in the Netherlands, headlined a Jameson Connects tour across India, and secured a slot at Primavera.
The Love Buzz continue to develop their sound and keep a steady pace, focusing on live performances and the next steps in their career.
Born in Bristol with South African roots, BIG FRIGHT is a genre-bending punk outfit fronted by expat duo Louwkie and Sandy, part-time lovers, full-time bin-fire starters. Formed in 2024 from the question “what if Fleetwood Mac wrote creepy punk songs?”, the band fuses feminist narratives with anti-establishment grit, trading male and female vocals over snarling garage hooks.
Think Pixies with indigestion, Wet Leg but meaner, or Fugazi with more estrogen. Music for the kids who never went to Sunday school.
