Vicar Street, Saturday 23rd August

Matt Berninger is the vocalist and lyricist for Grammy Award-winning band The National. His songwriting has long garnered praise for its poignant clarity, jagged-edged wit and intimately emotive melodies. The band’s career spans ten studio albums, including First Two Pages of Frankenstein and Laugh Track, both issued in 2023. Late 2024 saw the release of The National’s first proper live album, Rome. Together with his wife Carin Besser, Berninger produced the band’s 2013 feature-length documentary Mistaken for Strangers, directed by Matt’s brother Tom. Outside of The National, Berninger formed EL VY with Brent Knopf (Menomena) in 2014. The duo released their debut album Return to the Moon the following year. Berninger’s “gorgeous” (Rolling Stone) solo debut, Serpentine Prison, came out in 2020, produced by the legendary Booker T. Jones. His second solo effort, Get Sunk, is due to be released in May 2025.

Rum Jungle

The Sound House

Hailing from the coastal backstreets of a steel city, Rum Jungle craft raw alt-rock anthems and late-night ballads that sit somewhere between surf-punk grit and high-fashion swagger. Their songs carry the haze of nostalgia, the chaos of youth, and the strange comfort of letting it all fall apart in style. With psychedelic guitars, slacker-rock grooves, and hooks built to linger, Rum Jungle delivers a sound that’s equal parts indie-sleaze revival and beach-burnout elegance. It’s cinematic in its imperfections — champagne bottles next to crushed beer cans, thrifted designer jackets over
