    Having recently announced that their debut album launch on February 23 will now take place at the Button Factory due to demand, Bray trio Wyvern Lingo have unveiled new single ‘Snow II’. A song that presents a familiar situation with a heavy heart, it’s another compositionally exquisite, harmony-driven R&B pop masterclass from Caoimhe Barry, Karen Cowley and Saoirse Duane.  Mark our words: 2018 is Wyvern Lingo’s year for the taking.

As well as announcing their first Irish show of 2018 at Number Twenty Two at Dublin’s Grand Social on February 23, the trio have just unveiled the masterful ‘Out Of My Hands’. Brimming with the band’s increasingly inimitable brand of harmony-driven alt-pop, it is also the band’s most political effort to date.

    Back in June we shared ‘I Love You Sadie’, the latest – and quite possibly finest – single from Bray alt-pop threesome Wyvern Lingo. Having called it “another instant gem bursting at the seams with the threesome’s slick marriage of exquisite, RnB-inflected harmonies, groove-laden patterns and their collective ear for a killer hook” we’re pleased to share the track’s slick new video courtesy of Louise Gaffney (who, as you might well know, is also a member of Come On Live Long). One of the Irish songs of the summer? Easily.
