“FOUR” EP LAUNCH
plus guestsMOLLY STERLING_ Main Venue _
Join Mongoose for the official launch of their EP ‘Four’, a collection exploring the fusion of four distinct songwriting styles. The EP contains a song written by each member of the band, and subsequently arranged according to their distinct style as a collective. Springing from four very different beginnings, the songs on the EP show Mongoose’s diverse yet unique sound, each individual contribution enhanced through collaboration within the band.

Mongoose is a musical melty-pot combining the vocals, instrument-playing and songwriting of four women – Molly O’Mahony, Ailbhe Dunne, Muireann Ní Cheannabháin and Cara Dunne. Their latest single ‘Old Friend’ was released in July and are currently Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown Musicians in Residence for 2017.
All four members are songwriters, which allows for rich and dynamic soundscapes. From harmony-lead delicate folk to hard-edged indie pop, their music has been constantly evolving since the release of their debut album in 2015.
Celebrated for their live performances in particular, they have made memorable appearances at numerous festivals around Ireland and abroad, including Other Voices, Body & Soul, Longitude and Electric Picnic. Mongoose recently supported Glen Hansard at his sold out Vicar Street gig.
“[Mongoose] have graced us with more stunning vocal arrangements and a catchy refrain” – Hot Press (‘Old Friend’ – single July 2017)
“A vocal powerhouse with a line in charming yet incisive idiosyncrasy, Mongoose are an act unafraid of being true to their boundless, abstract and vibrantly coloured creative selves. A must for lovers of musical ingenuity and adventurous atmospherics.”– DervSwerve music blog, 2017.
