TabloidTv Q&A

Band name:
TabloidTv.

Where are you from?
Dublin, Ireland.

Who else is in your band?
Mark Young, Paddy O Donohoe, Senan Dobey, Ultan Murray and Ian Rankin.

How would you describe yourselves?
We're a pretty straight forward, indie rock band - two guitars, a bass, drums and vocals.

Who are your main influences musically?
We all listen to lots of different music, but I guess we sound most like Vampire Weekend, or The Vaccines or early Bombay Bicycle Club, or another Irish band: Raglans. We've been compared to The Smiths, Two Door Cinema Club and The Arctic Monkeys as well, though I'm not really to sure about that one!

What do you hope to achieve in music?
To be able to record an album and play a few festivals would be awesome.

What has been the highlight of your career so far, and why?
Highlights so far: We got to record our debut EP with Francesco Gatti, who produces for a really good Irish band called All Tvvins, he was brilliant to work with and even just being in studio was so much fun. Other than that I think we would all pick out one particular gig in a place called Crowbar in Dublin which was great fun! We recently played our EP launch in the Grand Social in Dublin which was sweet.

And what’s the moment you want to forget?
None.

If you had to pick just one of your songs to represent your music, what would it be and why?
If we had to pick one song that represents us it would probably be First Winter, which was the lead single from Mixed Messages (our debut EP). It's upbeat and catchy with a singable chorus and a cool guitar riff, which is the sort of music we mostly end up writing. 

Where can we listen to it?


Where can we find out more about your music?
