2fm choose The Academic for Eurosonic
The Mullingar band are off to northern Holland in January
Hot Press faves The Academic have been chosen by 2fm to be Ireland's official representatives at Eurosonic, the January 13-16 showcase festival in Groningen, Holland which has been an invaluable shop window in the past for the likes of Kodaline, Imelda May, Editors, Arctic Monkeys, Royal Blood, Hozier and Jungle.
The Mullingar quartet will be joined by more Irish acts selected by the festival organisers themselves.
In the meantime, check out The Academic's brilliant new single, 'Northern Boy'.
