Five months on from the release of the debut EP – a release we said contained a “real earworming charm” – Dublin quartet Montauk Hotel have unveiled the video to their new sense ‘Sense of Place’. Nicely straddling the line between indie jangle and straight-up pop, the song – their foursome’s strongest and most confident effort to date – is accompanied by a video courtesy the band’s vocalist Claudia Verdecchia. Montauk Hotel launch the single upstairs in Whelan’s on Saturday, with support coming from Beauty Sleep and Exiles. Have yourself a Facebook event page.

Formed late last year, Dublin indie-pop quartet Claudia Verdecchia, Shell Dooley, Aoife, Hester and Karima Dillon El-Toukhy AKA Montauk Hotel have hit the ground running via their self-titled debut EP. From opener and lead single ‘Black Dress’ to harmony-driven closer ‘In The Land’, there’s a real earworming charm to the band’s streamlined, chorus-drenched jangle-pop. We expect impressive things from these guys throughout 2017.
