Drogheda indie-pop act modernlove. will tour Ireland in November

Pop quartet modernlove. will be visiting 7 Irish cities on their debut tour, with tickets on sale this Friday (April 29).

Drogheda indie-pop quartet modernlove. have announced their debut tour is set to take place this November.

The run includes seven performances across Belfast, Derry, Galway, Listowel, Limerick, Cork, and finally, Dublin. These dates are to immediately follow six headline performances across the UK, with tickets going on sale this Friday.

Their most recent single 'Don't Wanna' was released earlier this month following other recent offerings such as ‘Us’ and their Valentine’s Day delight ‘Follow You’, which have since found support across countless tastemakers.

'Don't Wanna' is an infectiously catchy track, and the video shows off a level of fun authenticity that's much needed in the Irish music scene. With its bright and soaring aesthetic, matched effortlessly with some wonderfully engaging songwriting, the group are spreading their creative wings to unveil one of their most heartfelt releases to date.

Last year, the band released their debut EP monochrome blue with Akira Records. The 6-track project confronts issues like romance, rejection, 21st-century communication and the daily impact of all three.

Monochrome blue combines their earliest work into a statement debut offering. Featuring the singles ‘Liquorice’, ‘2 Missed Calls’ and ‘lmk (if you wanna see me)’, they received strong playlist support, landing on New Music Friday UK, Fresh Finds, Alt-Pop and The Pop List amongst others on Spotify, as well as New Music Daily, New in Alternative and Breaking Alternative on Apple Music.

modernlove. are making a name for themselves for crafting some seriously catchy upbeat indie anthems. Known for their dazzling live performances and polished vibrant recordings, we anticipate international recognition. Though their lives may be complicated, Barry, Cian, Danny, and Graham have already nailed their sound; they deliver polished, indie-pop with a glossy '90s sheen and intricate details.

Tickets for modernlove.'s upcoming Irish tour will be available here on Friday April 29.
