“The five-piece have been identified by music business insiders as one of the most exciting young rock bands to emerge in Ireland in eons,” said editor Niall Stokes of the Hot Press Hot For 2023 act.

“You can immediately hear that these guys know what they’re at. It is early days of course, but there are times when the first record is enough to set the pulse racing – and this is one of them. Basht. also sound like a fine live proposition, made for a big festival stage. This really could be the start of something big."

Tickets for the Dublin show start from €16 and are available via www.singularartists.ie, while entry to the Galway gig is free.
