TIDE7 was born from Jack’s idea (drummer) in late 2022. After meeting Luke (guitarist), they began writing songs, later joined by Aaron (bass) and Mark (frontman) to complete the lineup. Drawing from metalcore, deathcore, djent, and mathcore, they blend groovy riffs, crushing breakdowns, and chaotic dissonance. Their debut EP Rinse and Repeat was self-produced and played live across Ireland.
A whirling dervish of unbridled self-expression, Bad Mothers Union unleash torrents of euphoric psych-rock.
Established in Kilkenny by frontman Conor Kavanagh, during Bad Mothers Union’s existence they have focused on forging a community of like-minded individuals, bands and artists with the view that no crowd or venue is too small.
They are driven by the unshakeable need to share their artistic vision with the world. Eschewing the standard approach to membership, the band act as a musical collective, thriving on collaboration and what each player’s voice brings to their sonic tapestry. The current line-up is Conor Kavanagh (vocals/guitar), Céin O’Dowd (guitar), Shay English (bass), Ethan Corcoran (bass/synth/vocals), Tim Flood (percussion/bass/guitar), Jude Csobod (saxophone), Michael Lanigan (guitar) and James O’Neill (drums/percussion).
Drawing on influences musical and beyond, the band cite Gang of Four, Radiohead and Death Grips along with some David Lynch humour, adding a surrealist twist to the expansiveness of their music.
Rafters weave together Classic & Alternative Rock influences alongside a healthy dose of Punk energy & catchy melodies to create an unforgettable live experience.
