The Mercadonnas

Rock // Carlow, Carlow

The Mercadonnas write soft songs and play them LOUD.
The Mercadonnas shout big and then whisper BIGGER.
The Mercadonnas are a frame of mind, a supermarket in PORTUGAL, an optical illusion.
The Mercadonnas are here, and there's nothing YOU can do about it.

'Carlow-based The Mercadonnas' debut track 'Céad Míle Fáilte' fuses Grian Chatten-style post-punk vocals with modern synth-pop pop sensibilities, as dramatic synthscapes and crushing distorted guitars buttress this cutting account of the country’s recent relationship with migration.' Hot Press Magazine (IRE)

‘... brooding post-punk belters'
Mystic Sons (UK)

‘The Mercadonnas hit hard for their debut. This first single, with post-punk accents, breathes Irish identity while offering a universal message, aggressive riffs combined with an introspective and sensitive writing'
Iggy Magazine (FRA)

…the song manages to put issues on the table and encourage reflection, in addition to being a rock piece that can be enjoyed at full volume, sung, chanted and, above all, felt.
R+ Culture (MEX)

'...independent, professional, devilishly handsome & export ready'
The Mercadonnas
