On the back of a storming appearance on the Electric Arena stage of this year's Electric Picnic, Nova Static have announced the launch of their debut EP.

The band, who came together in late 2006, have supported major Irish acts such as The Blizzards, Republic of Loose and Fight Like Apes.

The eponymous EP will be launched on Saturday, 25 September with a hometown gig in Kavanagh's, Portlaoise.

Admission on the night is €7 with tickets available on the door.

Those attending will also receive a free copy of the EP.
