  • Hornets w/ Apartments & Unyielding Love @ Catalyst Art Centre, Belfast

    March 14, 2016 - By Loreana Rushe

    Saturday March 12 2016. A hidden location in Belfast’s city centre. No, not a meeting of some clandestine secret society, but a fundraising gig for Belfast hardcore rockers Hornets. As they’ve previously done (to raise money for a tour) the band chose a tiny studio location, holding a maximum of eighty people, to have ‘a bit of a do’, including an art gallery, a raffle, and a couple of up and coming young bands as support.

  • Baio @ The Workman’s Club, Dublin

    February 23, 2016 - By Loreana Rushe

    Following last summer’s release of debut LP The Names, electronic artist Chris Baio now sits comfortably in the saddle of his subsequent world tour. “This is our 34th show,” he announced to the Dublin crowd in Workmans.
