Drawing inspiration from 2000s rock icons such as blink-182, My Chemical Romance and The Strokes, SPEAKERS infuse their own brand of witty social commentary and self-awareness to the genre.
SPEAKERS’ dynamic live set has seen them perform across a plethora of stages on the national level, from Whelan’s Upstairs in Dublin to Sea Sessions in Donegal.
In 2024, SPEAKERS released COOLER TALK which earned the band a place alongside Ireland’s most promising upcoming artists on RADIO NOVA’s shortlist for HOT PRESS’s ‘A New Local Hero’ award. SPEAKERS’ newest single FIGHT LIKE A MAN explores toxic masculinity and challenges the idea of what it means to be a ‘man’, paired with the band’s melodramatic vocals and distorted guitars – it even has a drum solo!
‘SPEAKERS speak to a disdain for modern life and it’s absurd monotonies’ – THE GOO
‘A propulsive rock banger, COOLER TALK puts SPEAKERS knack for witty social commentary on full blast, artfully exploring the existential dread of dead-end jobs in your 20s’ – HOT PRESS
‘NOTHING TO YOU is a mere peek at a band at the very start of a journey that holds much potential.’ – Hardbeat Magazine
