Running from January 15 to 17, the industry fest will allow 160 acts to peddle their wares in front of an eager audience of bookers, promoters, record companies, DJs, journalists, and honest to god punters.

Both Irish acts will be broadcast live on Dan Hegarty’s late night 2fm show, which will be giving away a pair of VIP Eurosonic passes for a week, starting Monday, November 10.

"Groningen is a lovely town famous for its gorgeous students and excellent hardware shops,” the Apes note. “We’re chuffed to be going there."
