TOSHÍN · THURSDAY, March 12th - Doors 7:30pm - Tix €10 on Eventbrite
‘The group have become known for their dancy, high-spirited shows’- Lucas Dean, Hotpress ‘This band is known to be energetic and entertaining, and to reliably cause a serious bop. Toshín on lead vocals has an undeniable stage presence that gets the whole crowd moving. She is Lizzo meets Aretha Franklin, and takes the role of front woman to a whole new level. She is playful, powerful, and theatrical, and the band grooves devotedly along with suave-funk energy’- Elina Filice, Red Vine ‘These guys have it all – showmanship, charismatic persona and proficient musicians to tie it all together in one joyful melodious bow. Toshín are a must see.’- Indie Buddie ‘Dubliner Tosin Bankole is a superstar in the making.

Backed by a seven-piece band, including Bicurious guitarist Taran Plouzané, Toshin delivered an attitude-drenched set of groovy soul as she opened the Body & Soul stage on Friday evening.’ - GoldenPlec Since 2016, Toshín have been refining their sound to the point at which you see them today. Fronted by Tosin Bankole, the energetic 7-piece draw on influences such as Tank and the Bangas, James Brown and Aretha Franklin to refine their jazzy, poppy sound. Themes of feminism and the female experience take centre stage in their music, with songs such as 'Girl Go Off' and 'Boy Listen' proving popular among their Dublin fanbase. Original songs and covers to form an electrifying live show not to be missed!

EYK are like Everyone You Know – if everyone you know has a keen ear for the vital sounds of post-millennial Britain, from The Streets to Arctic Monkeys and all hip hop points in between… and is able to mash those influences together by producing tracks in a bedroom and a garage… then top off those tracks with sharply observed lyrics and rhymes and bars about suburban heel-kicking and small-town raving… then manages to use all that to land a record deal within four weeks of putting their first tunes up on Soundcloud.

Everyone You Know are Rhys Kirkby-Cox (24, Man United through and through, a young father) and Harvey Kirkby (19, QPR till I die, a young studio geek). Technically – genetically – they’re half brothers, sharing a dad but not a mum. But really – actually – they’re just brothers, best mates and simpatico songwriters who produce beats out of a Uxbridge bedroom (Harvey) and craft lyrics in a Sandhurst garage (Rhys).

Rhys and Harvey kicked open the door with last October’s Cheer Up Charlie. Five banging tracks and two pithy skits, the seven-track EP showcases the brothers’ prodigious, self-taught musical talents and way with tunes that lane-hop and genre-jump with confident ease. They’re the Playlist Generation, loving this and loving that and able to channel all of it – but here blessed with an underpinning of four music-obsessed parents/step-parents with record/CD collections drawn from the best of R&B, vocal house, Britpop, east coast hip hop, rave, and jungle.
