Join Left Iris and Papa Boyle for a co-headline spectacular this September! Both Dublin based bands will be taking over the Victoria Dalston for one night only. Walls will be shaken, tunes will be sung, tears will be shed, history will be made. Support from Leave Quietly Left Iris are an exciting new Irish/Spanish trio formed in 2024. They create a blend of Alternative music inspired by Shoegaze, Pop and Electronica, resulting in singable tunes wrapped in layers of guitars, harmonies and synthesisers. The trio released 4 singles last year, amassing over 70k streams as well as enjoying heavy radio play and features in Irish, UK and American media outlets. While previous releases have been bright, dancy and Pop like, their upcoming single Escitalopram (July 18th) is a heavy, fuzzed out wall of guitars and co-vocals reminiscent of 90s Alternative and Grunge. With over 40 shows under their belts, Left Iris live sets are known for being ethereal, loud and energetic. The group will release their debut EP ‘Love Songs’ this Summer, with a headline show Upstairs in Whelan’s on August 16th to support (in aid of Epilepsy Ireland). Uk, Netherlands, French and Spanish dates are in the calendar for late 2025 and early 2026. ‘They remind me of Vinyl Williams, whose music I love. Those woozy synths and the chord progressions are spot on’ - The Thin Air Papa Boyle is a Retro Indie artist based out of Dublin, Ireland. From an early age, he was given exposure to a wide range of music that spanned multiple decades and genres which fuelled the fire to become a songwriter and performer. Taking inspiration from the retro sounds of the ’50s and 60’s Rock n Roll era (ie Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, The Everly Brothers) with a tinge of modern Indie (ie Father John Misty, Angel Olsen, Kings Of Leon, Orville Peck) Papa Boyle croons over an ambient landscape filled with rousing melodies and pondering punchlines. The resulting hooks transport the listener to diners of old, bars of new, and crossroads that feel familiar yet unknown at the same time. With aspirations of 2024 being a breakout year with releases and gigs across Ireland, Papa Boyle has already seen himself land some great success with his debut release ‘Between Two Fools’ which was released in April 2024. and the follow up single 'Last Chance Saloon'. He ended 2024 with his mesmerising single 'Tranquillo' and kicked off 2025 with his stunning single 'Falling For A Daydream' which received over 10,000 streams on Spotify and most recently 'Chasing The Smile' . He has also played venues such as Workmans Cellar, Whelans and Sofar Sounds Amsterdam & Dublin. He has been picked up in various stations and magazines such as Hot Press, BBC Introducing, BBC Sounds, RTE Entertainment,Golden Plec,The Beat,Today FM, 98FM,Cork 96 FM, Galway Bay FM, RTE 2XM and many more as well as supporting Elaphi in the workmans cellar with Singular Artists.
