SYANO
Hailing from Cork, Ireland, Syano is a genre-blending collective that fuses hip-hop, jazz, and soul into a rich and immersive sound. The band consists of Philip Corkery on vocals and guitar, Chris LaMotte on bass, Tom O’Donovan on keys and Liam Berry on drums, drawing inspiration from artists like D’Angelo, J Dilla, Mac Miller and Loyle Carner. Syano crafts a sonic experience that is both deeply rooted in tradition and refreshingly contemporary.
ESMERALDA ROAD
Esmeralda Road bridge the gap between the technical and the emotional with intense musicianship and personal lyricism. They are recognised as one of Irelands most exciting outfits whose reach has expanded beyond Belfast and into wider Ireland and the UK. Known across the isles for their authentic songwriting and electric live performances, the band has carved a distinct space in the alternative scene.
Between conception and the present day, the band hasbeen hard at work. Fresh off the back of their sold-out headline Irish tour in the spring of 2025 and having joined both Liam Gallagher and Primal Scream on the Irish legs of their tours in 2024 and 25 respectively, the band are back in the studio recording their next project slated for release in the Autumn of this year. Their commitment to their craft and constant drive to improve garnered them a win at 2024’s NI music prize, taking home the BBC Introducing Artist of The Year award at the ceremony last Winter.

Growing with every show and with a debut single on the horizon, David Eamon is not an act to miss!
