Percolator
========

Dublin's Kraut-rock, shoe-gazeing trio mix soft male/female vocals, syncopated beats and enveloping synths and guitars.
They've previously played shows with Michael Rother (NEU!, Harmonia), Deerhoof, A Place to Bury Strangers and recently Grant Hart (Husker Du).
They'll release their 3rd EP this summer and the long awaited debut album is due for release in September.

I <3 The Monster Hero
=================

"I Love The Monster Hero is winsome musical collage, a mash-up of primitive sounds that toe the line between lo-fi and no-fi but together manage to engender an instinctively hooking, bubbly sunshine pop. The rough, gleeful, quirk addled qualities of the band are sublimely showcased on "Toni Bailey", a synthetic, buoyant blast of distortion and sparkling chimes and "Little Gem", which, with its simple, slightly coarse guitar lines and layered vocals, will stick like velcro."

Crayonsmith
=========

Started by Dubliner, Ciarán Smith, in 2004. On hearing debut album, "Stay Loose", in 2006, Mark Linkous asked Crayonsmith to open for Sparklehorse on their UK/Irish tour. Crayonsmith joined Out On A Limb Records in 2007, releasing sophomore album, "White Wonder", in 2008. Made with the help of two friends, the album saw the band play Irish shows with Why?, Yeasayer and The Mae Shi plus a US tour with Islands and gigs with Clap Your Hands Say Yeah as well as a European tour with Casiotone For The Painfully Alone.“Heaven In An Aeroplane” (part of a split 7" with Elk, November 2011) was the next release from Crayonsmith. This single marks the first released recording of the new Crayonsmith line up – Richie O’Reilly (Guilty Optics) & Wayne Dunlea (ex Waiting Room) now join Ciarán as a band. The trio complete the third album, " Milk Teeth", due for release on Out On A Limb in October 2013.

Admission: €6
