Formed by songwriter & vocalist Brian Brannigan, a lazarus soul released their first 3 albums, alsRecord, Graveyard of Burnt Out Cars & Through a Window in the Sunshine Room with a revolving cast of musicians. Then, in 2011, the current lineup of Anton Hegarty, Julie Bienvenu & Joe Chester joined Brannigan for a tribute show to The Fall. They have now been together for 13 years, making 3 albums, Last of the Analogue Age, The D They Put Between the R & L and the forthcoming No Flowers Grow In Cement Gardens.
als have been much-lauded with their albums routinely topping end-of-year polls. Analogue Age was included in the Sunday Times list of the best Irish albums of all time while Cillian Murphy & Craig Charles featured The D They Put Between the R & L on BBC 6 Music. That album’s second single, Long Balconies, a tale of runaway gentrification & failed regeneration in Ireland, seemed to capture the zeitgeist of a country struggling to house its citizens and became an anthem of sorts for the band. It was featured in film "The Francis Street Photographer" and its lyrics were quoted by Dublin historian, Donal Fallon (Three Castles Burning), in his book "14 Henrietta Street".
They have played sold-out headline shows at Whelans, The Button Factory, The Doolin Folk Festival, Royal Hospital Kilmainham and, in 2023, their first headline show at the National Concert Hall, Dublin. In recent years <a href="spotify:artist:3Ebn7mKYzD0L3DaUB1gNJZ" data-name="Christy Moore">Christy Moore</a>, has become a champion, covering Lemon 7s and Black & Amber at his shows.
