Who Art Thou?
02/12/25 • 44 min
Today I am joined on the podcast by Carolyn and Ronan of the band Gather the Lost!
‘Gather the Lost’ are an exciting Dublin-based alternative rock band that officially launched onto the music scene in March 2022. A project that was originally started early in 2020 by Dublin born Singer/Frontwoman Carolyn Dunne but was quickly interrupted by the hit of the Covid19 pandemic.
Joining Carolyn is Guitarist Alan Franklin, who hails from Brazil; Brian Dunne on Bass who originates from Dundalk and the latest addition from Dublin, Drummer Ronan Sherlock who joined in 2024.
Each band member brings forward years of experience, skills, and passion into the group, creating a powerful and distinct sound that won’t be easily forgotten.
With 3 single releases played by stations in Ireland, England, and Canada, receiving positive reviews with a healthy curiosity for more music releases, Gather The Lost started recording for their debut Album which is aimed for release in 2025.

Episode 166: Mirrors
Who Art Thou?
04/24/25 • 36 min
Today I am joined by Jodie, Zoe and Fin of the Melancholic Rock band, Mirrors, from Cork!
Mirrors blend raw energy with Irish anxieties through bold, compelling music. Drawing inspiration from The Cranberries, Mazzy Star and Just Mustard, their sound fuses Celtic rock and melancholic, shoegaze-laced textures.
For this episode, I will be chatting with the band about the two things mainly, with the first being the fantastic achievement that is the band being longlisted as part of the emerging talent competition to play Glastonbury this year.
Secondly, and the primary focus of the episode, is the band's brilliant brand new single 'Drowning', which was released today and was recorded with Wayfield records. The single also has an accompanying music video that was also released today and was directed and edited by Katelyn Leahy.

Episode 121: Ferals
Who Art Thou?
11/19/24 • 63 min
Today I am joined by Shane of the Belfast Heavyweights, Ferals!
The band last month releasd their largest body of work to date, the EP ‘Love & Other Obsessions’. The EP showcases a band acknowledging their past but always reaching toward the future, bringing contemporary sounds in to support emotionally extravagant songwriting, that according to the band explores the idea of love as the ultimate vice. This EP is essential listening from a band at the height of their abilities.
I will be breaking down the entire EP with Shane, going through each track individually, dissecting their meaning and how they were constructed, including the engineering work Shane did on the EP, his first time doing this with the band.
The band are also currently on tour, you'll be able to catch them this week on the following dates:
20th of November - The Victoria - Birmingham
21st of November - Spinning Top - Stockport
22nd of November - The Pump - Trowbridge

Episode 155: Mr Billy Fitzgerald
Who Art Thou?
04/01/25 • 73 min
Today I am joined on the podcast by Mr Billy Fitzgerald!
Formerly the lead singer with Dublin pop-rockers The Dead Flags, Billy has been plying his solo trade around Ireland for the past few years, patiently building an audience with his earworm songs and hilarious online videos. And now with the release of his debut album, Billy is poised for greater attention.
He released his debut album, 'A Grand Romantic Gesture', on February 20th which will serve as the primary focus of this episode. We'll be talking about the album's writing process, the instrumentations, mastering the album in Abbey Road and directing the extremely fun and creative music videos.
His songs relate touching tales of failed romance through upbeat melodies and ultra-catchy choruses, delivered with soaring falsetto vocals and a wry sense of lyrical humour. Billy describes his music as “songs about heartbreak that make you want to dance”.
Mr Billy Fitzgerald is playing Whelans tonight! It should be a fantastic show so make sure to grab a ticket.
