Sendetermin 10.04.2024 16:00 bis 16:55
The 107th Irish edition of IndieRe promises to be a special episode, featuring a lineup of new releases and interviews with emerging talents from the Irish music scene.
Hosted by Patrick Domanico, the show kicks off with Larks, a music project released by Fiona O’Kane, a gifted multi-instrumentalist hailing from Belfast. Following O’Kane's segment is the first interview of the episode with Tommy Cullen, who introduces his solo album "Enjoy the Glow".
Continuing the showcase, HousePlants, a duo comprising Bell X1’s frontman Paul Noonan and renowned producer Daithí, presents their track "No Pushover." According to Noonan's interview with Hot Press, Paul says: "'No Pushover, lyrically, is the tale of an outsider, a wannabe insider. I was taken with a story about how Elon Musk and his brother like to talk about The Simulation Argument (that we’re all in a simulation) in the hot tub, and thought – is this the ultimate inner sanctum??”. It is suggested to listen to this song pumping-up the volume of your speakers.
Enjoy the second interview of this episode with the rock band Dominda (pronounced doh-mind-dah) offering insights into the origins of their band name. Dominda comprises Ruaidhrí Whelan, Stephen Curtis, Luke Cunningham, Sean Curtis, and Barry Lysaght, promising a diverse and dynamic sound.
Wrapping up the show is the Dance/Electronic music project Disfreq, hailing directly from Moville, Co. Donegal, Ireland. Their track "This Is Just A Dream" serves as the perfect conclusion to the episode's eclectic lineup.
