^ Upstairs ^ MAKINGS return to Whelan’s on 21st September with very special guests GREYFACE for what promises to be a night of high energy floor-filling music. Both bands performed at Whelan’s Ones To Watch early in 2019 and have gone on to have further success. Some highlights include Greyface’s recent performance at ‘Wacken Open Air’ in Germany while Makings put in a huge performance in Phoenix Park for Youbloom @ Bloom In The Park 2019. — — — — —MAKINGS
www.makingsmusic.com Makings are a six-piece outfit with a unique sound that weaves between electro, rock & rap. So far in 2019 they have performed at Vantastival, Youbloom @ Bloom In The Park, Oakfest, Whelan’s Ones To Watch, Midnight City and have toured Germany and UK. In February 2019 they launched their EP, which contains the singles ‘Blackhole’, ‘Pulse’ and ‘Beck N Call’, the first three tracks to be produced with Grammy-Award winning mixer Jim Lowe (Stereophonics). Since the release of their debut album ‘Cognition’ in 2016, the band’s image & sound has continued to evolve to where they are quickly becoming the go-to band for venues & festivals that require an energetic floor-filling performance. With many more releases in the pipeline, the group expect 2019 to be their biggest year yet! — — — — —GREYFACE
www.greyfaceband.com An Alternative group based in Dublin city. The bands philosophy is loosely based on the universal Freudian/Jungian ideas of the inner shadow. Each member of the group names and paints this inner being most people choose to ignore, or reject for its undesirability. The ‘shadow’ is the unknown within each human being. The group refer to their shadow as their ‘GREYFACE’ taking these ideas to the stage in a theatrical and explosive way. Through high-energy performance, the band perform a stylized mix of music branching from hip-hop, to rock, to electronica. The group performs very regularly, having opened for ‘As It Is’ in The Academy Dublin, and performing at Wacken Open Air in Germany.TICKETS

THE BLIZZARDS
plus support _ Main Venue _ NEW ALBUM ‘The Last Great Algorithm’ Released 15 October 2019 NEW FILM ‘The Blizzards: Behind The Music’ Dublin Premiere, 20 Sept| Multi-award winning Irish power punk pop band The Blizzards are making an exciting triple announcement today with the release of an album, a film and a tour. The Blizzards, bruised and battered after releasing 2 albums with major labels, have decided to go it alone with the release of their highly anticipated third album “The Last Great Algorithm” independently. The albums release has been so long awaited that the band even made a film, “The Blizzards: Behind The Music”, cataloging the entire process with its’ Dublin premiere set to take place at the IFI next month. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANqmXI9pAZ0 One of the most anticipated albums of the year, “The Last Great Algorithm” is available to pre order now from (INSERT LINK HERE) before it hits stores and goes live on all digital platforms on 15 October 2019. Produced by Philip Magee (Kodaline, The Script), “The Last Great Algorithm” presents exceptional levels of creative originality with first single “Who Would Want To Be In A Guitar Band?” available digitally from 20 September and dropping at radio today. Speaking of the single Bressie of The Blizzards said: “The track was borne out of the very considered feedback from a media playlister about the perception that one of our songs was “too guitary”. Shocked at realising that guitars were now illegal, we had two choices. Give up, or write this song. We gave up actually. But our manager kicked our asses so here’s the song we wrote to retaliate.” As if the album wasn’t enough to look forward to, a tell-all star studded short film that documents the band’s exploits over the past year is being released to the big screen with the Dublin premiere taking place in Dublin’s Irish Film Institute (IFI) on 20 September and follows its screening at the Galway Film Fleadh in July. A chance to get up close and personal with the band, the Jeff Doyle directed film, follows Bressie, Dec, Justin and Louize and their by all accounts, unorthodox, manager Duncan as they navigate the challenges of the music industry. The film features an array of big names sharing their impressions of the The Blizzards, from Picture This, to Laura Whitmore to Stormy Daniels. Tickets for the screening are available from www.ifi.ie today. Complete with an exclusive interview with the band followed by a live set. A busy few months awaits, with The Blizzards embarking on their UK and Ireland Tour in November 2019. Tickets for all dates are on sale this Friday 30 September. Visit Ticketmaster and local venue box offices for tickets. Out 20 September 2019 “Who Would Want To Be In A Guitar Band?”, is the first single taken from The Blizzards upcoming album ‘The Last Great Algorithm’, which is due for release on the 15 October, with the band premiering their short film in the IFI on 20 September 2019. Tickets for their upcoming UK and Irish Tour go on sale this Friday the 30 September at 9am.TICKETS

(he cracked a rib in Bristol too but who’s counting). Unfortunately we will have to reschedule our shows in Belfast and Dublin as the doctors have said he cannot fly with a break.
