DEBUT ALBUM CIRQUE DU SLEAZE OUT NOW - https://itunes.apple.com/ie/album/cirque-du-sleaze/id981401283

"A truly knockout debut” - Louise Molony, Kerrang! Radio

Having upped sticks from the Emerald Isle to hustle their brand of low-slung Rock’n’Roll under the lights of London, Sal Vitro now unveil their debut album 'Cirque Du Sleaze' -  released in July 2015 on IRL. Led by singles 'Wear It Out' and 'It's Not Love', the album is permeated with rabble-rousing vocals, grinning Blues hooks and New Orleans-infused rhythm.

Touring extensively has honed the band into seasoned performers. Among others, they’ve joined the legendary Thin Lizzy on their Farewell Tour to a sold out Olympia Theatre, opened for Jeff Beck, and rocked out to audiences 10,000-strong while supporting Status Quo.

“A glorious album of killer tracks, well written and beautifully executed rock loveliness.” - Fatea Magazine

Having met on a modelling shoot in Dublin in 2011, Josh Dunford, Owie Lumsden, John Cuddy and Rourke Bradley joined their powers to tear through gospel choirs and Deep South whisky bars – keeping it together with plenty of homeland charm.

Following two packed album launches in The Barfly, Camden and Whelan's, Dublin, the band's sights are firmly fixed on building on the success that they have already achieved in the UK and Ireland. Buckle up and enjoy the spectacle – Sal Vitro have all the tricks to seduce you into their circus until you’re swinging from the Big Top. 

“If you like your rock dirty, sleazy, and retro, then get yourself down to the Cirque Du Sleaze” - Marky Edison, Muso's Guide

“If this single [Shake Skin] is anything to go by, and if Kodakid can produce an album of the same quality, they could easily be one of the biggest things to come out of the Irish music scene in a long time.” – Deirdre Harrison, Golden Plec

ABOUT:

'Waiting Space' is an audio & visual project - and alias of Waterford-based, musician and artist, Chris Falconer.

Through a D.I.Y. process that is enabled by contemporary technologies, as 'Waiting Space', he creates self-recorded/self-produced songs - characterised by dynamic vocals and cinematic instrumentals, typically blending programming, electronics, and live-instrumentation. Each piece of musical-output is 'complemented' by visuals which Falconer independently creates in response - including artwork, animations, and short films.

'Waiting Space' began in 2013 as a side project - initially a platform for musical ideas that 'did not fit' his existing bands’ catalogues. As other projects subsequently went on extended hiatuses, and Falconer found himself with an increasingly irregular schedule in which to create music (as his artistic-output was forced to compete with his full-time work within the architecture-industry), embracing Waiting Space as a solo/D.I.Y. project, and recording in domestic settings, made increasing sense.

The process also acted as a catalyst for Falconer to learn more about the technical aspects of music-making, including recording, mixing, & producing, and developing new skills in animation and video-production, in order to create the 'appropriate' visuals to match his sounds & words.

Radioplay has included RTÉ Lyric FM, RTÉ 2FM, Beat 102-103, a number of regional stations, and occasional international radioplay. Uniquely, given the project's visual aspect, Waiting Space has also crossed over into the gallery world: the Waiting Space piece 'Cocoon' (accompanied by a drone video filmed by Falconer of an empty Waterford City during COVID-19 ‘lockdown'), featured in the exhibition 'Stories From Lismore & Beyond' in Lismore Castle Arts Gallery; and Waiting Space has also been commissioned by the Luan Gallery Athlone, to create a number of musical-scores for ‘virtual walkthrough’ videos of the gallery’s exhibitions, a number of times during 2020 and 2021. Most recently, a Waiting Space audio/visual piece called ‘Unseen Happenings’, was commissioned by Garter Lane Arts Centre in Waterford, with the installation being viewable on-site in March 2022.
