AILSHA has announced her debut EP, Good Looking Girl, Awful Music, set for release on June 6, followed by a headline show at Dublin's Academy 2 on June 7.

The Co. Wicklow rocker's show will be supported by Irish artist and producer Layen_. AILSHA will also perform as a supporting act on Split Chain's The Grand Social gig on April 9.

"This EP contains my best songs yet, songs that spill my story as an artist, and make it clear that I'm not going anywhere," said AILSHA. She added that the project's title "comes from a comment someone left on one of my videos last year."

"Instead of letting it get to me, I turned it into this EP that I am so very proud of. This EP is about finding confidence, my voice, shutting out negativity, and embracing all of the highs and lows that come with chasing a dream."

The project's first single will be released in March 2025.

The artist received national attention in 2024 with 'Go Tobann,' an explosive Celtic metal track which was the runner-up to Bambie Thug's 'Doomsday Blue' in last year's Eurosong competition.

AILSHA's latest release, 'Call In A Minute,' made Spotify's New Music Friday UK and Alternative Ireland editorial playlists, and hit No. 1 on the Irish iTunes Metal Charts.

She is also the host of the RTÉ2XM show AMPLIFY, which spotlights "boundary-pushing Irish and international artists in heavier music genres."

Tickets for AILSHA's Academy 2 show in June are on sale now, starting from €15. For more information, click here.
