Pier

This event has ended

Whelan's, Saturday 23rd May

Born Pierfrancesco Dessì and raised in Sarroch, a small industrial town on Sardinia’s southern coast, Pier’s relationship with music developed quietly. After dropping out of architecture studies, he moved to Finland, spending time working in a metal mechanics factory, before relocating to Ireland, where he has lived for the past eight years and become part of Dublin’s vibrant music scene.

Influenced by ’90s alternative rock and Britpop, echoes of Jeff Buckley and Radiohead can be heard throughout expansive and lush production, which revolves around his vocal delivery. His Sardinian heritage quietly informs the way the songs are written, influencing harmony, sound texture, and overall style, without ever becoming an overstatement.
