NEW: Jerry Fish | 28th Nov

🗓 on-sale Friday @ 10am

Jerry Fish, indie legend, showman extraordinaire and ringmaster of exceptional renown is back, with his first LP in 15 years.
The new album entitled ‘Dreaming of Daniel’ feat. MayKay (Fight Like Apes) is a labour of love for Jerry. Featuring songs by the late, great Daniel Johnston. Scheduled for release in November 2024.

Jerry explains: "I felt compelled to record and release an album of Daniel's work, not alone is his lyrical wit and honesty an inspiration to me and a multitude of artists the world over, we have so much fun performing his songs live. The album ‘Dreaming of Daniel’ captures the joy we experience on stage performing Daniel’s songs, it’s infectious.”

Jerry Fish is one of Ireland’s most enigmatic and entertaining performers with his now legendary live shows, a unique live theatrical experience that dissolves all boundaries between performer and audience.

NEW: Marcin | 23rd Mar

Marcin picked up the guitar at age 10. Quickly he achieved success in local and international classical competitions. He was initially taught by an independent classical guitar teacher, but soon gravitated also to flamenco music, being patroned by Spanish professor and virtuoso Carlos Pinana. He picked up the acoustic guitar at age 14, and experimented with percussive playing as a self taught musician. Marcin first gained popularity in 2015 after winning Poland’s then largest TV talent show Must Be The Music.

In subsequent years his performances have amassed over 200 million views online, the main contributors to this number being his solo acoustic guitar arrangements of legendary tracks from various genres, like Moonlight Sonata, Kashmir, Beethoven’s 5th Symphony, Shape of You, Still D.R.E., Toxicity. Since then he focuses more on original compositions. The lead single Classical Dragon from his upcoming debut album featured Tim Henson of Polyphia, and has amassed 1M+ streams in a month, and 2.5M views in the same time.

NEW: Kelly Lee Owens | 4th Nov

On Sale Now!

Kelly Lee Owens returns to Ireland this November for her biggest Irish headline show to date at the Button Factory as part of her new tour.

Her masterful second album Inner Song finds the convention-blurring techno producer and singer/songwriter diving deep into her own psyche—excoriating the struggles she’s faced over the last several years and exploring personal pain while embracing the beauty of the natural world. It’s a leap in artistry from a musician who burst forth on the scene with a confident, rich sound, and is endlessly enticing when it comes to what Owens is capable of.

NEW: Panchiko | 25th Mar 2025

On July 21st, 2016, a user on 4chan’s /mu/ board posted a photo of a mysterious CD they’d found at a record store in Nottingham, UK: a rough-worn demo titled D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L, purportedly released in 2000 by four musicians: Owain, Andy, Shaun, and John.

The listener uploaded the ripped audio—the recordings sounded like they were plagued with disc rot—to file-sharing sites, and later YouTube, where they began circulating among internet music circles. The record’s sensationalist appeal was multifold. Was this an honest-to-God ’90s curio? A prank hatched by internet-savvy teens? An internet experiment in nostalgia, in the spirit of vapourwave? Nobody knew. So the Panchiko hive mobilised, gathering on subreddits and discord servers, examining every square inch of the packaging for potential clues, and even calling the Nottingham record store where D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L had allegedly sprung up in the first place.

“I woke up one day,” recounts Owain, “and ping—there’s a message on a defunct page of mine, ‘Hello, you’ll probably never read this, but are you the lead singer of Panchiko?’” The query took Owain by shock; to his and Andy’s knowledge, D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L> had never been uploaded to the internet. The Panchiko fandom finally made contact the following day, when they received their reply from Owain, a simple “Yeah.” At last, the world had confirmation: not only were Panchiko not 14-year-old kids, they were the real deal, right down to the disk rot.

Panchiko are about to embark on their fourth sold out tour of theatres across the USA, and have now amassed hundreds of millions of streams.
