This Bank Holiday weekend in Galway, iRadio are bringing iLoveIrish to the stage, with Hot Press cover stars Hudson Taylor performing an intimate gig in the Hyde Bar.

The event will also be the official launch party for the band's new album Searching For The Answers, which dropped today.

Gig goers will also enjoy a performance by Sophie Doyle Ryder. Her latest single 'Sucker', along with a Hudson Taylor/Gabrielle Aplin collaboration, are both iLoveIrish tracks this month.

iRadio’s iLoveIrish initiative champions and celebrates Irish music, with CEO Mark Cunning saying, “In launching iRadio's #iLoveIrish initiative in 2021, we wanted artists, acts, the industry and our listeners to see how important we believe the promotion of new Irish music is...”

Cunning also spoke of the growth of the initiative: “We have a selection of #iLoveIrish tracks featured as part of our main daytime playlist each month, a new weekly #iLoveIrish show on iRadio and a dedicated #iLoveIrish stream available through our app, iRadio.ie and the Irish Radioplayer. We're determined to continue to grow this initiative as a strong sub brand of iRadio and I'm delighted we're now integrating a live element to #iLoveIrish which we’ll also add to in the next while."

iRadio's Michaela Hayes says the station is proud to be getting behind Irish music: "It is an absolute privilege to get to introduce our audience to new Irish artists & help to kickstart awareness for their new singles. We're very excited to see iLoveIrish expand."

Other iLoveIrish tracks for June include Lea Heart's 'Mood', Lee James' 'To The Ones', Edge Of Seventeen by Lyra x John Gibbons, 'Romeo' by Slaney and The Coronas' track Strive.
