Irish electronic duo HousePlants, the collaborative project of Bell X1 frontman Paul Noonan and producer Daithí, today release a live album, Live at The Beekeeper’s, recorded at Daithí’s artist retreat, The Beekeeper’s.

The live album comes following the release at the start of this year of a 115 minute live performance filmed at The Beekeeper’s in County Clare, which served as a heartfelt thank-you to fans who joined the band during their last tour for album Half Known Things.

Live Performance

Reflecting on Live at The Beekeeper’s, Daithí recalls recording after their last tour, during a time of synchronicity: “everyone is aligned, we can read each other’s minds a little bit – It’s a lovely feeling, and one that I think Allyn the director caught perfectly.”

Noonan continues “Having made the first and a lot of the second record as Daithi and I in our respective bunkers, working up the songs for live shows and then gigging with the bigger band of great people has been the single best thing about this whole caper for me.

And capturing that in the Beekeepers, a real labour of lockdown love for Daithi as he renovated it himself and made it available as an artist retreat… ’twas only massive.”

HousePlants have built a reputation for their electrifying live performances, from festivals like All Together Now and Beyond the Pale, to opening slots for legends such as Chic and Leftfield. Their unique combination of energetic rhythms and heart-on-sleeve storytelling has earned them a loyal following.

To celebrate the release of the album, the duo will embark on a tour with three new shows this December – Cyprus Avenue Cork (11th December), Róisín Dubh Galway (12th December) and Dolan’s Warehouse Limerick (13^th December) – in addition to previously announced shows at the Button Factory on October 17^th & 18^th.
