First Class & Coach - My Oh My (single)

Formed in 2017 by Reuben Maher (guitars, keys, vox) , Jonathan Parson (bass), Geraldine Thomas (vox) and Andrew McNeilage (drums) - their early gigs fused hard-edged guitar sounds with ambient keys, digital samples, and dance rhythms. These formative shows led the band towards honing their sound - immediate, distorted guitar hooks, driving bass lines, muscular drums and uncompromising vocals, delivered in both English and German.

Micah - Stranger (single)

Stranger is the latest release by Irish singer Micah, making a change in her sound. It is a song inspired by dating app Tinder. The idea of trying to find ‘your’ person. However, when you begin dating you have some idea of what you are seeking in a partner or perhaps lover, and this is what the track tries to achieve with a pulsing beat and authentic storytelling. Lyrics and melody are by Micah and produced by LA based Killian Cruiser and mastered by Sony, Universal, Warner, EMI producer Christoph ‘Hadi’ Hassel.

Martin Praetorius - To the Dreamers (single)

The Essen, Germany born singer-songwriter has long been at home on the stages of the world and has toured in Scandinavia, Ireland, England and Scotland, Greenland and the USA.
He had been living on the road, touring constantly without a permanent base for a couple of years, when the pandemic stopped him in his tracks. Stranded on the shores of the Baltic Sea in the North of Germany, he started recording and releasing new material. Eoin O'Neill and Fiachna Ó Braonáin started playing him on Irish radio. He has been a regular since on an increasing number of radio stations across Ireland and the UK. His music couches somewhere in the twilight zone between Roots-Rock, Folk, Americana and Celtic influences.
