SUMMARY:Dolittle Presents: Amina & Guests
DESCRIPTION:Lauded by the Irish Times “quietly spooktacular\,” this show is a live performance to the 1913 French silent film Juve Contre Fantômas \nHailing from Reykjavík Iceland\, Amiina are a five piece band comprising of Hildur Ársælsdóttir\, María Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir\, Sólrún Sumarliðadóttir\, Magnús Trygvason Eliassen and Guðmundur Vignir Karlsson (aka Kippi Kaninus). \n\nAmiina’s origins go back to the late 1990s\, when four girls studying string instruments at the Reykjavík College of Music formed a string quartet. The group started out playing classical music\, but increasingly moved on to play all sorts of music with various bands in Reykjavík. In 1999 the quartet joined Icelandic band Sigur Róson-stage. The collaboration continued for over a decade\, with Amiina contributing strings to Sigur Rós’ music on tour and in the recording studio on the albums ( ) \, Takk\, Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust and Valtari. \nMelancholic and ethereal\, yet full of suspense\, pounding rhythms and haunting melodies\, Amiina’s fans won’t be disappointed.

SUMMARY:clap your hands say yeah
DESCRIPTION:Coming to Whelan’s this Friday\, September 15th\, is Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Like previous Clap Your Hands Say Yeah records\, The Tourist nods to Ounsworth’s musical heroes—a group that includes artists such as John Cale\, Robert Wyatt\, Tom Waits and Nick Cave. However\, this album also shows a natural progression from previous records. “Better Off” and “The Vanity Of Trying” are lush\, keyboard-augmented songs\, while “A Chance To Cure” and “Ambulance Chaser” are rhythmically askew\, and the sighing “Loose Ends” is delicate\, acoustic-based folk-rock. \nThe Tourist emerged from a period where Ounsworth was doing a lot of intense soul-searching\, and processing personal events that irrevocably shaped his life and future. But although most of these songs came together during this time of reflection\, he considers the record to be cathartic—an exhale of sorts\, rather than a collection of songs where he was indulging in self-pity or letting things stagnate or fester. \n \n“I am a relatively solitary person and seem to work best alone\,” he says. “I do count on others to help the project as the process of making and releasing an album moves forward\, but if it doesn’t match what I have in mind\, it’s hard for me to really be there for it. I guess this is one reason why the project has been independent all this time. Trust me\, I understand that thinking this way is both an asset and a liability.”

SUMMARY:Shelby Earl
DESCRIPTION:Shelby Earl weaves epic stories of love\, loss and darkness with her emotive voice. Treading the line between indie and folk\, Shelby is an essential part of a new wave of female musicians like Angel Olsen and Sharon Van Etten who are writing poetic song lyrics and offsetting them with sparse production in order to expose the heavyweight emotions at play. \nShelby draws characters in her musical stories; her latest album tells tales of babies not yet born and of women who will cry an ocean of tears\, if only to test their ability to swim. Couched in symbolism\, each track is like a short story that you listen to over and over\, annotating it in your mind. \nExperience Shelby’s power and storytelling skill at Whelan’s this Sunday\, September 10th.

SUMMARY:Pear Label Launch
DESCRIPTION:Dublin collective Pear kick off their first release with the debut EP from local bearded maestro r.kitt consisting of 4 kaleidoscopic house joints. \nYou can listen to both tunes of the A-side here.\nDrawing deeply on influences from Chicago and from the distinct melodic emotion achieved by artists like Larry Heard\, each track on this 12 is awash with feeling riding some strong rhythms to provoke bodily movement. The melodies are deep and rich\, the beats are banging\, and you are invited to bop and groove. \nIn the artist’s own words: “I want your mind and body to be lost in this experience. The Jigsaw EP is a map to get you there.” \n

SUMMARY:Song Cycle
DESCRIPTION:Well into it’s third year\, Whelans Singer songwriter night ‘Song Cycle’ continues to offer a platform for local and non local acts to experiment\, sing and share in the friendly informal setting of Whelan’s front window. Taking our cues from our favourite artists musings on the creative process (Van Dyke Parks lends us the title from his seminal 1967 opus) this night offers artists a fresh new stage to breath life into songs\, experiment with ideas or simply just play for the sheer enjoyment of it. \nThe Format of Song Cycle has developed a little since moving downstairs earlier this year.  Regular hosts Ollie Cole and John Byrne help us curate the evening and take part as well by performing some of their works in progress as well as old standards. Needless to say an impromptu session is never too far away if some of their special guests feel like playing a song or two. \nSong Cycle takes place in Whelan’s front bar every Monday\, admission is free and all are welcome to play.

SUMMARY:Ballet Átha Cliath
DESCRIPTION:Dublin Art Rock braintrust\, Cloud Castle Lake\, like to keep things somewhat low-key. Following the swell of praise that followed their meticulously assembled Dandelion EP\, the trio took a step back from the limelight\, focussing wholly on completing their LONG anticipated debut full length. So\, it’s with no small degree of excitement that we welcome their return to the fold with their first Dublin live show since 2016\, and it’s a special one at that… \n\nBallet Átha Cliath is a new short dance performance film by Howard Jones\, shot over the course of a day last August in Dublin featuring ballet choreographed by Irish ballerina Zoë Ashe-Browne and features an original score composed by none other than Cloud Castle Lake. Tomorrow night\, the band will be performing their soundtrack live\, as part of a Ballet Átha Cliath in the Sugar Club. Following the film showing\, the band promise to debut a selection of new work set to appear on their upcoming record. If all that wasn’t enticing enough; support on the night come courtesy of one the country’s most exciting new artists – Davy Keohe. Davy’s debut Short Passing Game has comfortably asserted its position as one of the year’s most essential domestic releases – we can’t wait to see what Davy has in store for this special full-band performance.

DESCRIPTION:He’s a Boiler Room bunny\, he’s recorded with Carl Craig and Derrick May\, he’s a cool cat blending  classical and electronica and he’s bringing his exhilarating Piano 2.0 show to the Concert Hall tonight as part of The Dublin International Piano Festival 2017 \n \nTristano trained as a classical pianist at the esteemed Juilliard School in Manhattan\, and the great city of New York in the late 1990s was where his obsession with electronic music began. His desire to merge his love of classical piano and dance music resulted in the genre-defying debut Not For Piano in 2007\, which incorporated covers from the iconic Detroit house and techno scenes including the classic ‘Strings Of Life’ by Derrick May. \n \n“The fact is\, Bach can sound great played on synthesisers\, too\, so why would Carl Craig or Derrick May’s music not sound great on a piano?” remarked Tristano. No stranger to cross-genre collaboration\, Tristano has worked with both May and Craig; most recently on the latter’s album Versus. He will perform the solo version of the album highlight ‘The Melody’ in Piano 2.0. \n \nA master of sonic experimentation\, combining pianistic perfection and earth-shattering electronic textures\, Tristano’s work is continuously evolving and defying the expectations of the music world. Amongst the scores of Johann Sebastian Bach\, Frescobaldi\, Rameau and others\, Tristano adds layers of magical minimalism with the latest production tools\, sequencers and synthesisers. \nThe Sony recording artist possesses the ability to highlight common elements of both Baroque piano styles and electronic music\,  creating mesmerising work where the two meet. His commitment to innovation makes him one of the most exciting pianists working today. It’s rare to find a classical artist influenced by both Bach and Daft Punk. For him\, the classification of music is far too restrictive.

SUMMARY:Belle and Sebastian
DESCRIPTION:Scottish Indie Pop legends Belle & Sebastian return to Dublin. \nThe best pop groups want to change the world. They want to leave an imprint that no one forgets\, to do more than check out as a minor statistic in the Guinness Book of Hit Singles. They want to change the world of pop\, and to engage with the politics of pop. Belle & Sebastian have re-invented the pop festival; they signed to a tiny independent label but still beat Steps to a BRIT\, before sweeping into the Top 40\, then the Top 20. They’ve brought their lost sixties heroine\, Evie Sands\, over to play a show in Glasgow. They’ve sold out a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. And\, in 2014\, they cut an album – their ninth – called Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance\, that blends electro-glide\, baroque balladry\, and giant-sized Europop hooks. They deserve several accolades\, each of which are rare for any band in 2014 – Belle & Sebastian are unique\, unpredictable\, and fiercely loved. \nPart of their appeal is that Belle and Sebastian have always given the impression of being completely unaware that they are even famous. Emerging in the late nineties\, they appeared to be both press and camera-shy\, but also entirely self-contained; they seemed to have a secret\, something built around books and films\, and yet were happy to share the love\, stopping just short of writing individual songs for their fans. And their fans\, naturally\, became obsessive\, formed their own bands\, started their own loosely affiliated clubs\, radio shows and websites. A secret gang – who wouldn’t want to be a part of it? \nBut then again if you’re a band who works with Trevor Horn\, Carey Mulligan and Norah Jones\, you’re probably not content to lurk in the tiny shadow offered by a seven-inch single on Postcard. And if you end up on the soundtrack to Adam Curtis’s The Power Of Nightmares\, or Todd Solondz’s Storytelling\, as well as Juno\, then there’s going to be more than a little grit and grain to your music than adjectives like “shy” and “fragile” might suggest. \nBelle & Sebastian have always understood well the art of song structure. They write precise and elegantly constructed melodies\, and have never skimped with middle eights\, bridges and codas. Belle & Sebastian have stood as something different right from the beginning. Let’s have a quick poke around the previous eighteen years. Debut album Tigermilk (1996) was the product of a Stow College music business class that drummer Richard Colburn was taking; just 1\,000 vinyl copies were pressed. In spite of huge major label interest (immortalised on the track Seymour Stein on their third album\, The Boy With The Arab Strap) they initially signed to the tiny Jeepster label\, then later to Rough Trade and now have their first worldwide deal with Matador Records. The key to their appeal was a sense of community. Their self-curated Bowlie festival would evolve into All Tomorrow’s Parties; they became central to a nascent message board culture\, and a US loop of labels and fanzines (even writing a song about one\, Chickfactor) that adored their music\, their stance\, and their imagery. \nIn Britain they famously upset the applecart in 1999 by winning the “Best Newcomers” BRIT award through the votes of their fans\, faced accusations of vote rigging\, and in the process have got the backs of the tabloids up (sample Daily Record headline: “Belle Boy’s At It Again”). So\, clearly\, they’ve been doing something right. \nThere’s nothing obviously tabloid-baiting on Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance\, though the bold step onto the dancefloor is bound to raise some eyebrows. “Be popular – play pop\, and you will win my love” is the final line on ‘The Everlasting Muse’\, and is the lyrical heart of an album about love\, the love of music\, and the power of pop. Given that Murdoch has openly declared himself pro-bubblegum before\, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that ‘Enter Sylvia Plath’\, ‘The Book Of You’ and ‘Play For Today’ have keyboard hooks that recall Scandinavian pop machines past and present. The filmic loves\, kitchen sink imagery and baroque touches are still there\, too\, don’t worry. \nIt’s all about trusting in the restorative power of pop music. If you’d trust anyone to write a great Europop song about Sylvia Plath\, you’d trust Belle & Sebastian. \nwww.belleandsebastian.com \n

SUMMARY:Saul Williams
DESCRIPTION:Having last dropped in at Metropolis\, the impassioned Williams is a man of many guises – rapper\, slam poet\, singer-songwriter and actor that we know of. He released MartyrLoserKing in 2016 which saw him meditate on social justice and protest in an internet age. Wrapping through allusions and metaphors\, Williams packs a veritable punch with dazzling vigour. Expect the same on stage.

DESCRIPTION:These doom metal titans from Seattle are no strangers from our shores with a long-standing relationship with local booker U:Mack. “Our intention is not to be destructive. It’s nourishment”\, they said in a recent Guardian interview. Founded by Stephen O’Malley and Greg Anderson\, O’Malley describes playing with the band as “a hyper-peak moment\, an ecstatic moment of being inside this energy field. It’s like jumping into the crater of a volcano – you’re in this chamber of magma.” \n

SUMMARY:Pixies
DESCRIPTION:Consider this a recommendation born of morbid curiosity. While we all know what to expect from the reanimated Pixies\, few dare speculate with regards to Trinity’s credentials as an outdoor music venue. With The Pixies having long since shed the essential otherness that made them so vital in their pomp\, there is little hope of life-changing sonic fireworks. That said\, Gouge Away et al remain unrepentant bangers and the new Summer Series is undoubtedly an intriguing addition to “festival season”. Support from Fangclub

SUMMARY:Femi Kuti
DESCRIPTION:The brilliance of a father is not always apparent in their progeny (sorry\, James McCartney). But Femi\, firstborn of Fela\, has been adding further notes of distinction to his pioneering auld fella’s formidable legacy since the 1980s. Frankly\, Femi’s firm grasp on what elevated his father’s work to the position of sacred texts shouldn’t come as much of a surprise considering his involvement in Fela’s acclaimed Egypt 80 ensemble. Sure\, I can believe it’s not butter. But when you live in world without butter\, what’s the use in forcing the comparison? \nTo win tickets to this show just answer the following question: \nWhat is the name of Femi Kuti’s father? Mail competitions@totallydublin.ie \nWinners will be selected by Thursday July 6.

SUMMARY:Robert Glasper
DESCRIPTION:We’re sure any of those fortunate to catch Robert Glasper’s sensational Whirligig show in the Workmans back in November 2011 assumed he’d be ascending to a larger venue here in 2012. Six years later and it hasn’t quite panned out like that here even though this Grammy Award winning artist is playing all the buzz jazz tests this summer and has dates at the likes of Somerset House and Dekmantel Festival. Count your blessings to be able to catch him in the intimacy of Whelans cause in 2018….

SUMMARY:LUMO summer party
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by their Despacio experience at the Electric Picnic in 2015\, Lumo was born. And it’s established itself as a favoured monthly amongst discerning music lovers who ain’t afraid of hearing relatively unknown acts like Rainbow Team dropped alongside Phil Collins. Their all-dayer at the Garda Boat Club is testimony to their eclectic loves with a live appearance by I Am The Cosmos. \nDetails: \nI Am The Cosmos (Live)\nCian Murphy and Ross Turner’s live analogue synthesizer dance music has drawn from the best of synth-disco\, house rhythms and electronic music. This is a rare live set from the boys. \nLumo Club DJs\nNialler9\, Gavin Elsted and Simon Roche will be keeping things moving with individual and B2B sets throughout the day and night. https://soundcloud.com/nialler9/sets/dj-mixes \nSing Along Social (Yacht Rock special)\nAoife McElwain’s commitment-free choir singalong is a riot of lyrics\, lungs\, passion\, props and participation. For the Summer Party\, we will be singing along to Yacht Rock classics. \nOllie Chau\nOlivia Chau has been part of the music scene in Limerick for over a decade now. If she isn’t running\, promoting or playing at gigs\, she is at gigs. She’s been DJing around Limerick for the last 6 years and brings her own unique and kitsch-y blend of Disco\, Pop\, Indie\, and House music to the masses. \nhttps://www.mixcloud.com/dontkillthebeat/sunny-march-mix/ \n

SUMMARY:Phil Collins
DESCRIPTION:Does Phil Collins have 51\,700 fans on our island up for shelling out between €89.50 and €144 for a night with him? It’s a wildly optimistic pitch by the promoters even with Blondie on board off the back of their brilliant Pollinator album. Regardless of this\, the former Genesis drummer though not a titan is certainly a musical  force to be reckoned with. See you down the front if there’s space. \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZebJCiBhvM \n
