find-joy

find-joy are a five piece alt-pop band hailing from Dublin. Formed in 2021, the group create tracks that blend the vocal harmonies of North-London outfit Sorry and the wild energy of Fremantle's Spacey Jane. Their sound is a mixture of layered, full-band performances with electronic experimentation.

find-joy have gained a reputation for an engaging and exciting live show. Highlights include performances at Whelan’s One’s to Watch 2023, Golden Plec and John Barker’s TiLT #13 in the Button Factory and Whelans main room as well as sold out headline shows at The Workmans Cellar and Upstairs At Whelan’s.

find-joy have released five singles including ‘Best Wishes’ featuring Matt Ó of Tebi Rex which made it into Spotify’s ‘New Music Friday UK’ playlist as well as The Fader’s ‘Songs You Need In Your Life’ among others.

“Best Wishes" finds each musician in a sweet spot of curiosity, unafraid to take chances within the smoldering lo-fi landscape before any singular musical identity latches onto them.” - Larisha Paul, The Fader

"It’s a slice of very, very nice.” - Tony Clayton-Lea

The group began with Tadhg Kelly (Vocals) and Mark Allidine (Guitar) creating tracks in a home studio during Mark's studies for a degree in creative music production. A collaboration titled 'White Lies' with Colleen Conlon (vocals) saw their modest beginnings. There was an instant connection between the trio and they decided to create more music together as a band. The group has since found their footing as a five piece with the addition of Tadhg’s brother Oscar Kelly (bass) and Fergal Mullen (drums).
