PURSUED BY DOGS are a four-piece from Dublin that make music with computers, guitars, bass, keys and vocals. They have been described as indietronica, but they prefer this description “…at the line between sad and blissful, a fuzzy end-of-the-night type of music that’s simultaneously affecting and rousing.”
Following a sold out EP launch in May 2017 in the Workman’s Club, an Autumn headline show in Whelan’s and slots supporting Elaine Mai and COLUMBIA MILLS, the band rounded up the year with appearances at Other Voices festival, followed by supporting HamsandwicH in Dolans Limerick and a special Christmas headliner in Dublin’s Sin é. 2018 will see the release of the band's debut album and a very special headline show at the Button Factory on May 4th.

-----------------------------------------
TANJIER have brought their unique electro indie-pop sound and their thrilling live light show to many of the major Irish venues and festivals in 2017. Their contemporary sound, is inspired by London Grammar, Coldplay, The 1975, LCD Soundsystem and Bon Iver.
2017 saw Tanjier close the Other Voices Festival, excite crowds at Electric Picnic, support The Strypes, and sell-out shows across Ireland; including twice in Whelan’s, Dublin. They have received national airplay, including three live performances on RTÉ 2FM. They have gained a reputation as one of the most exciting Irish live acts. They bring energy, anthems and their own custom light/laser shows across the country.
Electronic beats, growling synths, catchy guitar hooks and haunting vocals, Tanjier are modern musical story-tellers. In their lyrics, they have explored ideas like youth, mental health, prostitution and nostalgia. They provide a soundtrack for people living through the ironies of the modern age. Tanjier are Mick Killen, Ronan Lynch, and Tommy Buckley, based in Dublin.
All eyes are on the trio as they prepare to release their next single in 2018. The band are also expanding their audio-visual show (lights, lasers and visuals) for their future concerts.

About the organiser
Visceral, rousing and affecting; PURSUED BY DOGS’ live performances have quickly built them a formidable reputation with their high-impact shows and unique splicing of edgy electronica with yearning indie songwriting. Their debut album was released in May 2018 to rave reviews with journalists describing it as “euphoric”, “sophisticated”, “glorious”, “superb”, “unique”. Their now legendary appearance at Other Voices festival was followed by a sold-out album launch show at Dublin’s Button Factory, about which music journalist Remy Connolly said, “You can’t ask for more than a great debut album to be equally matched by a live performance. Joy is the main word that springs to mind…”
