Self-described as “a kick ass 3 piece rock band from Dublin”, The Velourias specialise in sharp-shooting, hip-shaking rock music in the vain of Idlewild, At The Drive-In, and the Pixies and are known for their raw, energetic live performances. Seeking adventure, the band gave up their day jobs in 2009 and relocated to Leeds to create their self-titled debut, which includes the acoustic-driven ‘IntoThe Flood’ and epic closer ‘Trapped In The Belly Of The Whale’.
