Orchid Collective
Little stands in the way of Dublin alt - pop quartet Orchid Collective. Having received support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Clash Magazine, Red Bull, Today FM and RTE 2FM throughout 2018. Single 'Otherside' even featured on the structured reality of Channel 4's Made in Chelsea. They have spent the past two years touring relentlessly through Ireland, UK and Europe building a dedicated and loyal fanbase, writing candidly & honestly on personal relationships, love, loss and change which seem to be resonating with every listener.
The group’s pertinent lyrics are wrapped in rousing, propulsive, arena size guitar anthems delivered with cavernous vocal harmonies to the fore front. Clocking over 500,000 streams in 2018 on Spotify and their latest release being streamed over 2,000 times daily. Orchid Collective make themselves known as a band that set themselves apart from their contemporaries, offering a bold new imagining of the indie genre.
Having supported some of the biggest names in the Irish music industry, clocking in a serious amount of road miles and two EP's in the pipeline. Orchid Collective seem to be destined for huge things in 2019.
