MIK PYRO & BAND


(Republic Of Loose)

DEBUT ALBUM RELEASE SHOW

plus support

Whelan’s Main Venue • Fri 21st July 2023




Mik Pyro (Republic of Loose) and band will play Whelan’s on Fri 21st July, in support of his long awaited debut solo album. Tickets €18.50 from Whelanslive.com.

A fixture on Irish radio in the noughties with multi platinum album sales, Republic of Loose changed the landscape of Irish music winning plaudits from critics and artists alike, recording and playing live with U2, Sinead O’Connor, Shane MacGowan and Snow Patrol amongst others.

A solo Mik Pyro album has been in the works for some time but the pandemic saw Mik put that album on hold and take a sharp left turn. What has emerged is a deeply personal album. Gone are the perfect FM radio pop songs, the funk, blues and soul of Republic of Loose and in it’s place Mik has produced a record for grown ups.

In Mik’s words: “It’s a big departure from the Loose. It’s kinda rain soaked Country n Irish music believe it or not. I wanted to make an album like this before I got back to the funk, because I’ve been writing this kind of music my whole life but never released any of it”.

Think Tom Waits, Dr.John, Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones or Van Morrison and you’re in this albums wheelhouse
