Gorgeous Wrecks

Gorgeous Wrecks - the anonymous duo that make "bright, retro, alt-guitar pop with electronic undertones." Nialler9

In 2019, two independent Irish artists, searching for fresh musical outlets, and hoping to explore new sonic ideas, came across each other whilst nursing a pair of hangovers at an Antoni Gaudí walking tour in Barcelona.

Combining their collective vision for a musical project that combined electronic atmospherics, a selection of vintage drum machines, a guitar and one very unique voice, they were determined to put the songs (and not the artist) at the forefront. Naming themselves Gorgeous Wrecks, the duo decamped to a studio in North Dublin with renowned Irish producer Ger McDonnell (U2, The Cure, Kasabian, Martha Wainwright) , where, inspired by artists such as The Blue Nile, The Notwist, Portishead, PJ Harvey, Metronomy, TV on the Radio and New Order, they wrote and recorded their debut album Gentle Art of Persuasion .

A mixture of rock, electronica and synth pop, the album was mastered at Abbey Road by Frank Arkwright and was released in 2022.

Gorgeous Wrecks have finished recording their follow up, due to be released in the later half of 2025 along with a string of live dates to support it.

"Sharpen the Saw", the first single from the album will be released in March 2025

Keep your ears peeled.
