BURGLAR + STELLA & THE DREAMING
Whelan’s Upstairs • Thur 28th August 2025
SOFTDRINK MILLIONAIRE
Emerging out of Bray, Softdrink Millionaire are used to being on the outskirts. A seemingly endless collection of influences makes it hard to pin this band down as any one thing. There’s a sloppy twee-ness to the intimate and colloquially written softer moments but also a heavier edge, their songs threatening to burst at any moment into emotive instrumental post-rock.
BURGLAR
Burglar is an alternative rock band based in Dublin, Ireland. Willow and Eduardo formed Burglar after meeting in college in 2021 and bonding over their love of alternative acts such as Stereolab and Smashing Pumpkins.
STELLA & THE DREAMING
Stella and the Dreaming is an artist from Waterford. From behind a garage door somewhere, stuffed with duvets and carpet covered frames, they write and record on a stripped back piano, distilling influences and obsessions into song-making. Giving melody a world to live in, surrounded by keys changing and distorted vocals – this is the Dreaming.
