​Tanjier are an alt-pop band based in Dublin. Their sound is inspired by acts like The 1975, Maggie Rogers and Sigrid. Their indie-pop melodies are influenced by the likes of LANY or Lauv, and their guitar tones are reminiscent of Foals.
 
They have brought their live show to the likes of Electric Picnic, Forbidden Fruit and Other Voices. They recently embarked on an Irish tour with True Tides. Their last tour saw them sell out their headline show in Dublin and earn a reputation as one of the most exciting Irish live acts.
 
Their last 3 singles Days, Crave, and Lights have together amassed over 380k streams on Spotify and were featured on Spotify’s official playlists like New Music Friday UK, The Pop List, Fresh Finds and more. They were selected as one of Nialler9’s ‘Top 50 Best New Irish Acts of 2018’ Today FM's 'Irish Artist of the Week', RTÉ 2FM's 'Fresh on Fridays', Spin 1038's 'Ones to Watch'. Their latest single, ‘Days’ was playlisted on RTÉ 2FM and was played on radio across Ireland, The UK, and abroad.
 
Tanjier are Mick Killen, Ronan Lynch, and Tommy Buckley. Mick and Ronan are from Co. Donegal, Ireland. They have known each other since attending school together, aged 4. Their teenage years were spent playing music together in various bands. Tommy met Mick at University in Dublin, and the two formed a band. Ronan joined shortly after.

TRACK DOGS

Track Dogs have spent the last couple of years barnstorming the UK with some major festival appearances and collaborations. 2023 has seen them release their third album in 18 months, debut at Glastonbury and perform at The Royal Albert Hall with Show of Hands. 

Well-established in Spain where they are based, they are surprising UK music lovers with “Sun-shiny songs thriving on dark themes behind irresistible rhythms.”
 
The two Irishmen, one Englishman and an American (Garrett Wall, Dave Mooney, Howard Brown & Robbie K. Jones) whose artistic names derives from the dark subterranean world of New York's subway system, celebrate 17 years together in 2023 with 10 albums under their belts, including their most recent release "Blind Summits & Hidden Dips", an album that grows on the work that has opened so many doors for the band.

What they're saying about "Blind Summits & Hidden Dips";

“Track Dogs play jukebox hits for the apocalypse… If you were looking to mark your card for the end of the world party; head to wherever Track Dogs are playing; for they surely will be playing. Squeeze in at the bar, drink up and thirst no more.”
Americana-UK.com 7/10  

“You can make the journey from Laurel Canyon to twelve-bar blues (with a twist) from one song to the next…‘Blind Summits & Hidden Dips’ is packed with inventiveness and surprises around every hairpin bend; you won’t get bored with this anytime soon.
” musicriot.co.uk - ****  

“Their latest album flits from the country-rock of Cover Your Tracks, the brass-boosted Way Of Things and the funk of Blues Brother. Top that all off with a stonking cover of Fleetwood Mac’s Rhiannon alongside Spanish vocalist Lu Garnet” 
Daily Express - ****  

“The good news from this latest release, Blind Summits & Hidden Dips, is that their musical smörgåsbord is as varied as ever, arguably even more so, while the bad news is… Well, there is no bad news…the lyrics and music of Blind Summits and Hidden Dips also reveal a depth and complexity on repeat listens. Sometimes what is revealed can be deadly serious, and sometimes it shows they’re a band with a finely tuned sense of humour; two Track Dogs for the price of one, I’ll settle for that.” https://www.folkradio.co.uk/2023/09/track-dogs-blind-summits-hidden-dips/

“The band’s tightness is exemplified in So Much Dust, which demonstrates the band’s rich vocal harmonies and strong sense of melody. A memorable original…reflected on human existence: A song for our times.”
Robert Trussel, Kansas City Theatre.

““Groovy” is not a word I often use in this column, but that’s just the adjective I need to describe Madrid-based Irish band the Track Dogs. The band’s music is, like the band of ex-pats, an eclectic cultural crossover.
The Irish Echo, New York

“This band turned out to be a total discovery, with vocal harmonies on a par with groups like Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, America or the most melodic style of, for example, the Eagles mixed in with the graceful irreverence of The Pogues.”
Renacer Eléctrico Music Magazine, Spain

“Their lively, melodic music has a strong American/Latin sentiment, a strong sense of fun and an abundance of sunshine”.
Folkradio.co.uk

“Superior Americana…joyous stuff”
Hot Press, Ireland

“Never in danger of overstaying their welcome”
