  • Years & Years @ Mandela Hall, Belfast

    November 5, 2015 - By Loreana Rushe

    Having released their debut record, Communion, at the end of June this year, it was only a matter of time before Years & Years graced our shores for a headline show. With tickets flying out upon release, the band added a second show at Dublin’s Academy due to demand. The popularity of the electronic pop trio has soared throughout the year, having won BBC’s Sound of 2015 award, alongside frequent radio airtime with singles ‘King’ and ‘Shine’.

  • Exclusive: The Strypes Secret Gig @ Sweeney’s, Dublin

So it’s no surprise that the venue…
