    Let's get the debate started... who's your top five right now???? I'm talking unsigned / breaking acts, next big things.

    I'll stick my neck out:

    Halves
    Blue Syndrome
    The Distractors
    The Chapters
    Gorgeous Colours

    In no particular order!

    Syllian Rayle

    it'd be a pretty limited list if its confined to Dublin only - otherwise I'd say GAMAK, Stoned Developments, Horray for Humans, Pocket Promise, Bill Coleman


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 49 stephen112


    Good point
    And good choices, though i think there's definitely Northern bands doing more exciting stuff than pocket promise

    I'd like Dead Celebrities too if I was in that band. ;)


    I honestly couldn't name five bands I liked that I've seen in Dublin, though I heard Halves, they sound pretty good. Not usually my thing, but Ria Czerniak is a cool singer-songwriter type, check her out if that floats your boat.
