AZURE

Described as “fun, funky and high-octane” by PostBurnout.com, Dublin-based AZURE (Sam Jones, Seán Woods, Evanael, Devin Hanson, and Sam Parcon) emerged into the college alternative music scene in late 2023. Originally starting as a few friends playing music, the band found themselves striving for more.

Taking from the group’s various influences, ranging from the rock and indie sounds of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Arctic Monkeys, to mellow reggae, to pop and disco from the Sugababes and Nile Rogers, the band’s discography contains a track for everyone to enjoy.

The band’s debut EP, Casa Del Dáil, was released in April 2024, containing fan-favourite tracks, such as singles Leave It Out and Getaway, as well as new tracks Soul Stricken Misfit Black and She, showcasing “a wisdom in arranging and playing beyond their years”, according to Rohan Healy of Beardfire Music.

With their early gigs in Fibber Magee’s to more recently performing in Drogheda and Galway, as well as selling out Whelan’s Upstairs and the Soundhouse, the band have honed their craft, bringing a powerful energy to each and every show.

AZURE’s followup EP “The Girl from the Posters”, is to be released 14 February 2025. “Sick City” and “Sheriff Street” are available now on all platforms!

Testimonials:
“Azure's debut ep is a powerhouse of youthful indie rock rebellion, packed with fast paced anthems that fans are already chanting along with at their gigs. There is an atmospheric depth there, especially in a song like She that shows a wisdom in arranging and playing beyond their years. Awesome band, one for the present and the future!” Rohan Healy - Beardfire Music

“The group performs excellently together. No performer sticks out from the rest, with each member being so skilled in their own right they balance each other out. The result is an enticing performance with crowd engagement and movement along with their unique sound.” Sorcha Rose McGroaty - Meath News Local & South East
