Hawke The Band:

Hailed as “the next big thing” and “ones to watch” by Irish rock legends Aslan, ‘HAWKE THE BAND’ are a fresh new band formed behind the Guinness factory in Dublin’s south inner city. 
 Combining their anthemic rock influences (Coldplay/The Verve) with contemporary sounds, lead singers Richard Power & Eoghan Mac Mahon and drummer Darragh McCarthy offer a hopeful, anthemic flavour of pop/rock.

After recording their first home demos in Richard’s bedroom, they sent the tracks to two London based producers and within days were recording their first releases in the famed Abbey road & Metropolis studios in London.

The first track from their London sessions “What About Love”, was subsequently chosen out of 500 other artists entries in a publicly announced competition to support Aslan in Dublin’s 6000 capacity Iveagh Gardens, and following in the footsteps of artists such as Gavin James and Damien Dempsey, they opened for Aslan.

HAWKE THE BAND made their debut UK performance at Hit the North festival in England’s north east, alongside the likes of Tom Grennan & Jake Bugg.

”Hotly tipped” – Hotpress Magzine.

“Hawke The Band could be the next big thing… really worth having a listen to…” – Christy Dignam, Aslan.

“Definitely ones to watch” – Theliberty.ie “Immensely exciting” – Celebmix

 

Oscar Blue:

From a village in western Irish County Clare, Oscar Blue started writing songs at 13 years old, first finding their feet on the open mic stages of local pubs, before busking in Dublin and Galway.

His debut string of singles (2018/19) recorded at a home studio have gone on to be streamed over 6 million times globally.

Having 2020 working in collaboration with renowned producer Philip Magee (The Script, Kodaline etc), Oscar released his ‘Backyard Mafia’ EP in 2022. He recently had a solo gig at the infamous Green Note in Camden, and is looking forward to a fruitful year in 2023.

SCARLET:

SCARLET is an independent artist, songwriter, producer and visual artist from South East London, creating unique content from her bedroom. 
 SCARLET’s authentic sound which fuses genres such as Electronic Dance Music, Pop and Rock has brought her thousands of streams across all streaming platforms, interviews with magazines and blogs as well as plays on independent radio stations.

SCARLET’s music explores topics of her life: growing up in London, the troubles she has faced and just what it means to be young and trying to get through life in one piece.
