Rock Double Bill

Director
A thrilling, energetic and exciting live act, Director have, since the release of their debut album “We Thrive On Big Cities”, established themselves as one of the leading young bands. Having all grown up together in Malahide the band burst onto the scene with their debut single “Reconnect” which went straight into the Irish Top 10.

The band have been compared with Amerindie bands like Mission Of Burma, the rhythmically sophisticated neo-punk of early Talking Heads or Television, and also echo hints of The Pixies. But Director have elegant pop sensibility, married to a canny manipulation of the two-guitars-bass-and-drums template.

Delorentos
Since they began touring in 2005 Delorentos have stood out as a band capable of pulling off fresh, gutsy live performances. With a seemingly insatiable appetite for gigging, they have honed their live show and began to build a reputation as a band for the smart money to keep an eye on.

Delorentos’ debut album, “In Love With Detail” went to No 1 in Ireland’s iTunes Alternative Charts! It also was firmly ensconced in the Irish Top 20 official charts. Excellent current single, “Eustace Street”, should be on your radio - if not you know your rights!

‘Cracking Irish debut albums such as ‘In Love With Detail’ are rarer on the ground than you might think......one of the best Irish debut albums of 2007’ - Jim Carroll, Irish Times
