Monday, August 23: PRiiCE

Initially rising to prominence as Sean & Conor Price, the acclaimed Irish duo are back with a brand new sound under a brand new moniker: PRiiCE. Exploring the line between indie-pop and hip-hop, the pair released their debut single 'Sunflower' last month – garnering international airplay, and coveted inclusions on Spotify editorial playlists like Fresh Finds: Pop and New Music Friday. Following the success of their debut track, they're back with 'Sweet Life' – offering a promising taste of what expect from their upcoming EP.

Tuesday, August 24: NÍV

Drawing influence from Irish folk music, as well as the legendary likes of Damien Rice, The Cranberries and Joni Mitchell, NÍV has rapidly become one of the country's most hotly tipped talents. The Kildare singer-songwriter sold-out her first Single Launch at The Workman's Club in Dublin for 'Silly Voices' last year, while her next single, 'Moonlight', clocked  up nearly 18,000 streams on Spotify alone. Earlier this year, she returned with the poignant folk song 'Home'.
