Since forming in Mayo two years ago, Layne County have become a popular live circuit presence. The word of mouth buzz around the band continues to grow, hand in hand with the good news that a fresh alternative rock sound is emerging from the West of Ireland. Layne County’s songs are brimming with dark lyricism and old-school chaos. They are also marked by infectious warmth and irresistible groove. Think Neil Young arm-wrestling with Kyuss and Bob Mould. This band's live show is uncommonly intense, the unique four-piece laying claim with every gig to the special territory that is Layne County. Watch this space.
