Bio:
Pockets played their first gig in December 2013. After their first performance they went on to support 'And So I Watch You From Afar' and play Whelan's 'Ones to Watch' festival for 2014 within three weeks of their first show. Since then, they have played a number of select shows in Galway and Dublin. Their first collection of songs 'Raison D'Être' was released on 19th of November and the EP was voted 'The Last Mixed Tape Readers EP of the Year'.

"This dark folk rock four piece have been garnering a lot of attention as of late with the release of their debut EP ‘Raison D’Être’. They are fresh and provide an interesting alternative to the music found in our scene, no one quite sounds like them. They were recently selected for State.ie’s ‘Faces of 2015′ and are bound to have some plans for 2015" - Pleasing Features

"Pockets haven’t been around for long – such a short time in fact, that you can see a list of all the gigs they’ve played on their FB ‘about’ section. For a band so young, they embody everything that is so exciting about the burgeoning Irish music scene – not only do they ooze of youthful infection, but they also have a steady, calculated and assured quality that belies their tender years.
This isn’t just music for Ireland – it’s something bigger" - Goldenplec.com Music News
