Record collector / DJ / Broadcaster / Producer / Brownswood Recordings boss / occasional remixer

After the release of their 1st LP ‘Sound of Freedom’ Paradisia quickly earned a reputation for their trademark harmonies and the unique delicacy of the harp featuring a critically acclaimed cover of Springsteen’s ‘Dancing In The Dark’ praised by the original song’s producer himself Jon Landau, accumulating over 4 millions streams, and for their ever relevant Feminist single ‘Warpaint’. Paradisia followed up with a European headline tour, and supported the likes of Michael Kiwanuka, Laura Mvula and the legendary Mr Bryan Ferry amongst others.

The girls have come home to regain their independence, after leaving their label and management they are about to embark on putting out an entirely self produced release. Paradisia are a self made DIY wonder. From the visuals, songwriting to the production, they are a multi dimensional creative force that won’t take no for an answer.

The Strypes are 4-piece rhythm and blues band hailing from Cavan, Ireland, formed in 2011 by Ross Farrelly (lead vocals/harmonica), Josh McClorey (lead guitar/vocals), Pete O'Hanlon (bass guitar/harmonica) and Evan Walsh (drums).

The group has spent the past 18 months launching their explosive R&B assault on the clubs and festivals of Ireland, the UK and Europe, viciously hammering out a no-nonsense blues repertoire drawing from the songbooks of Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Howlin' Wolf, Little Walter, Slim Harpo and more with the passion and venom of British blues groups such as Dr. Feelgood, The Yardbirds, The Rolling Stones and The Animals. 

Having already been met with critical acclaim from greats such as Jeff Beck and Paul Weller and been tipped by NME as the No. 1 new band to watch, it seems things can only get better for The Strypes.
