We’re delighted to announce that Grant Hart is returning to these shores in June to play eleven shows around the country before heading over to the UK to play a twelfth gig in London.

The tour will precede his new album The Argument (released on Domino Records in July) and while his melodic and absorbing re-telling of the Fall from grace will bring plenty of Hell-fire in its grooves, it won’t be the only fire lit under the artist. Backing band The Burn/Burning (an all-Irish Lineup consisting of Colm O’ Herlihy, Simon Dargan, Dan Walsh and Diarmuit Mac Cárthaigh) will provide a strong support to the consistently strong Hart, whose artistic path has always been nothing short of revelatory.

Tour dates are:

The Altered Hours‘ new single Sweet Jelly Roll will be released on April 29th on A Records. The track had its premier on French music and cultural website Crumb Magazine, who said “this song is beautiful: five intense minutes of voluptuous psychedelia and delicate intoxicating melodies”.

After spending an intense four days supporting legendary San Franciscan psych-rockers White Hills earlier this month, the band are now readying themselves for their own Irish tour, and will be hitting all four corners of the isle in support of the release.

Tour dates are:

The Dudley Corporation release their 4th album – and first in 5 years – next month. Everyone Does Everything Wrong is available for pre-order now (see here) and its release will be followed by a 4-date Irish tour, with Jogging supporting them for all shows.

We are delighted to announce the lineup and tour dates for the Certain Three Tour 2013. The tour continues on the tradition of the last three years – where Word of Mouth curates a triple bill of three very different acts and sends them out on tour with an alternating running order for each show.

This year’s lineup will feature three home-grown Irish acts: electro-pop duo Nanu Nanu, lo-fi shoegazer Si Schroeder and the post-punk stylings of Trumpets of Jericho.
