This weekend Word of Mouth will be shutting down our office and shipping to Dublin for the inaugural Camden Crawl Dublin. We’ll be hosting a night at The Button Factory on Saturday the 12th.

We’re not allowed say who will be playing just yet as the timetable is still to be announced, but the lineup is great and includes two of the headliners and one band from the Word of Mouth roster.

Also playing over the weekend in various venues is REID, Katie Kim, Hush War Cry and The Ambience Affair.

O Emperor kick off their German tour this Wednesday when they play the Bunker Ulmenwall in Bielefeld, followed by a further nine shows throughout the country. For a full listing of the tour dates, see our shows page.

The band have been busy recording their new album, with plans to return to Europe for another tour in September.
