Carrie is a young singer songwriter from Kildare and describes her style as ‘country crossover’. 

“From the time I was small,
I’ve always listened to and been inspired 
by country music”. Her style is rooted in an
honest blend of American Country and Pop. With her palette of influences striving from Brad Paisley to Tammy Wynette, she emits a beautiful and emotionally real sound that wins over many listeners.


In 2011, Carrie received major accolades and recognition from her appearance on “The Voice” in Ireland. She reached the battle stages but unfortunately lost out due to stylistic differences. Her chair-turning “Blind Audition” with the show can be viewed here:

“…an incredible first attempt…the band’s experience is evident in their polished sound which is sure to catch attention nationwide and beyond." Rachel Masterson ‘Ceoil Caint’

"With vocals not unlike an early Ash, and a melody that’s hard to forget, it becomes apparent this is a band that doesn’t mess around” 
Elaine McDonald, Dublin Concerts

"debut single 'Call and Rescue’...flits between The Stone Roses' 'She Bangs the Drums' in it's opening bars, a Foo Fighters sounding middle-point and there's even time for a sharp guitar solo that would have The Edge nodding in agreement.” Remy Connelly, Remy's Music & Film

"Their entire set had a degree of excellence about it... What really shows their ability is how they deliberately build the anticipation. With ‘Call & Rescue’ they get straight down to the task at hand. The clever way this builds oozes confidence.” 
'Unsigned & Independent Online'

“...an early REM feel from the sound.” Dave Conway, ‘Gigonometry’

Irish indie ensemble Penrose has its roots in a two person act originally started by musician Darragh McGrane in 2015. The line-up has gradually expanded to a five-piece ensemble in 2015 and their pedigree is quickly developing with the band supporting the likes of Aslan, Jack L, Damian Dempsey and Paddy Casey on the vibrant Irish live scene…each performance well lauded by those media present at the gigs.

Penrose can now be described as a solid Indie Pop band with catchy uplifting indie songs and anthems that have “attitude” and stick in your head. Mixing the pop sensibilities & harmonies of The Beatles / ELO, the snarling vocals of Richard Ashcroft (The Verve) and the rhythmic acoustic guitars of Aslan, Penrose are a truly powerful force…live and on record. The band mixes their 60’s and 90’s influences bringing them together in a modern perspective of the current music scene and culture.

The line-up sees Caolan Fitzsimons (lead guitar), Mark Bolger (bass), Benji Hayes (Keys), Donal Bowens(Drums) and Darragh McGrane (lead vocals and rhythm guitar). The band successfully unveiled their debut EP “Live for the Dream” which charted at NO.3 in the Irish charts to a sell-out house of fans & media at The Grand Social July 2015. The Band then released there critically acclaimed single MELODY which charted at No. 10 in the Irish charts and was picked up by all Irish national radio stations such as Today FM, FM 104 and RTE, with TV appearances to on RTE's TwoTube, the band then followed this up with yet another sellout show to their home fans in Dublin’s own Academy 2 venue. Having just released another single SIGN ON in MAY 16 with a string of summer dates in the UK and Ireland Penrose were invited back to the UK by Alan Mc Gee (Creation records) to play gigs as part of the Musicians against Homelessness campaign taking place across the UK. The lads were then asked to support one of their main influences and heroes Aslan as part of the Made in Dublin Revisited gigs that took place in Vicar Street last Dec. The band have just released their fourth single Let’s Go Out (June 17) to great response from Irish radio and Media. With festivals such as Sea Sessions, Indiependence and Electric Picnic all having the band on the bill this year and a 2nd EP due for late Autumn, 2017 looks to be a big exciting year for the band.

Jayson Bratten is an Irish musician, singer and songwriter from Longford in Ireland. Jayson’s music influence and style began to develop in the mid 2000’s when he lived in Galway. While busking on the streets of the city of the tribes, Jayson began to come into his own and develop a distinct style and sound. This was further impacted, by his years traveling to Belgium, Canada and Australia. These experiences led to what would be one of the biggest influences of his song writing. Jayson described “The more I traveled, the more people, places and stories I encountered, song writing became a way of documenting my travels and my experiences”. The eclectic mix of music and lyrical influences during this time can be seen, in his profound use of narrative and poignant lyrics in his songs. Soon after returning from traveling this outpouring of creativity resulted in his first album “Sex and Propaganda” which he released in early 2015.


Following the completion of this album, the groundbreaking Folk scene of Berlin, Germany, drew Jayson from Ireland once again. Within a short time, Jayson began to perform in a variety of venues from bars to beer festivals. These performances began to underpin his viability as a charismatic and distinctive artist. His music soon caught the interest of one of Berlin’s regional television channel s “Alex TV”. Jayson showcased his material on the hour-long hit programme INDIEAHNER - Music for your Tipi. This promoted his music even further and his popularity grew in music circles in the burrows of Berlin. After great success with his album in Germany, he decided to return to Ireland and pursue a career in his homeland.  


Since returning to Ireland in early 2016, Jayson has been promoting himself and playing in well known venues around the country, such as The Roisin Dubh, Galway, The Button Factory, Dublin and Crane Lane Theatre, Cork, as well as many local appearances around the island of Ireland. He has caught the attention of many well known radio broadcasters and has done a showcase slot on “The Green Room” with Orla Barry on Newstalk and “The Saturday Connection” with the renowned Charlie McGettigan on Shannonside FM. Charlie described Jayson’s song “Linda”; “I was very taken by his music, one song in particular, this track called Linda. What a great song, absolutely gorgeous song writing”.


In the last six months, Jayson has created a new collection of material. He will begin recording his new album in September in the acclaimed Grouse Lodge in Westmeath, which is famous for recording other well known artists such as Michael Jackson, REM and Manic Street Preachers. Jayson will be working on his album with distinguished producer John Henry, who recorded material with fellow Irish artists Ryan Sheridan and Scottish band Simple Minds.


Jayson’s unique singing style, coupled with his gifted song writing has created a unique sound. This writing of raw, stripped back songs has become his trademark. He is undoubtedly one of Ireland’s hidden gems.
