"Stunningly epic and atmospheric, some of the finest musicians I've seen in a long time, a band who certainly have the talent, the look and the adoring fans to take them to soaring heights in the music world” HOT PRESS
Since their formation five years ago, Sky Atlas have a sound that is truly their own. Simultaneously drawing influence from folk, shoegaze/noise, and rock music has led them to develop a unique sonic footprint. While Sky Atlas isn’t an act that shies away from distortion-soaked haze, the numbers that define this project are cinematic in scope, determinedly pensive and often quite delicate in execution. Although the band draws influence from acts such as Radiohead, Just Mustard and Half Moon Run, there is an expanse and freshness to their sound that refuses to be defined.
Described as "the next big thing on the Irish scene" (Hotpress 2022) the band are in the process of recording their debut album. Following an outstanding performance at Ireland Music Week 2022, they have just completed their first national tour of Ireland off the back of their latest single 'Hollow Embrace' (Nov 2022). They packed out 10 dates around the country from Dingle to Derry and were described after their Limerick show as a “masterful performance that teetered on the line of beautiful, and a barely contained cacophony” (Limerick Voice 2022). Sky Atlas have an exciting year ahead as they commence on their first tour of the UK following 'The Great Escape' in Brighton and then onto Germany for a number of shows in Berlin and Munich.
