Declan O’Rourke – Since Kyabram, 20th Anniversary

National Concert Hall, Thursday 13th February

In October 2004, amongst a thriving Dublin music scene Declan O’Rourke’s debut album Since Kyabram was released. In its first week, Since Kyabram entered the charts at no.5 and over the following two years achieved gold, platinum and twice platinum status. The Album held within it a collection of songs which have grown in popularity over the years. Galileo, Sarah, No Place To Hide, We Didn’t Mean To Go To Sea and Marrying The Sea are amongst the titles which led to Award nominations and plaudits from Paul Weller, Eddi Reader, Paul Brady and Snow Patrol.

Hot Press voted Since Kyabram their Debut Album of the year and without doubt its release jumpstarted a career which introduced Declan to an audience who have been on this journey with him, for 20 years.

“Since Kyabram is a record I’m very proud of, both as an introductory body of work and a collection of songs individually. After 20 years I’m still hugely nostalgic for it and love that it has become a favourite for so many others.

To celebrate and release Kyabram all over again, this time with a deeper dive inside the tapes, is going to be such a trip. Being fully immersed in the music once more for just a handful of special 20th Anniversary concerts will also be a very exciting”

Strand

Whelan's

Upside Inside is the third single from Dublin’s fresh-faced indie five-piece STRAND, and second in promotion of their upcoming debut EP, titled SOUNDS. An ode to doing ‘nothing at all’, Upside navigates the mundane nature of being an adrift 20-something. Bassist/lyricist Shane Aherne’s penmanship and the band’s performance on the track, however, are anything but mundane. The interesting juxtaposition provides the tune’s charm – leaving the listener with the feeling that maybe it’s okay to be aimless once in a while. Between the bouncy rhythm, witty lyrics, infectious energy, Ni
