Expect an eclectic range of songs that plunge to dark, cavernous depths with guitar-driven soundscapes and rise to euphoric, lung-busting heights. Led by their earworm vocal melodies, their live shows are a must-see.Starting off the evening with Pier and his soothing rhythms of the Mediterranean.

ARTISTSBIG LOVE is a sextet featuring Cian Ó Maonlaí (lead vocals), Jack Cody (guitar), Megan Nic Ruairí (keys), Dan Aherne (bass), Anton Shovlin (drums), and Adam Curtis (lead guitar).BIG LOVE released their debut single ‘Lily’ in early 2021 to much critical acclaim, following this up with two more releases and featuring multiple times in the RTÉ Recommends playlist.

Pier , also known as Pierfrancesco Dessì, hails from a quaint industrial town nestled along the southeastern coast of Sardinia. Departing from his studies in architecture and a brief interlude in a metal-mechanics factory in Finland, Pier found solace in Dublin's vibrant music scene, where he has since established his artistic identity. Drawing from a diverse palette of influences including 90’s alt rock, singer-songwriter introspection, and the rich tapestry of Sardinian folk. His music seamlessly oscillates from ethereal ambience to raw intensity. The latest single “Like A Moth To A Flame” anticipates the release of Pier’s debut EP "The Harvest", out on April 26th.
