It's been a pretty remarkable few weeks for The Shoos. The Irish rockers released their long-awaited, self-titled third album in April, and performed a stunning support set in May, for the postponed Jeff Lynne's ELO concert at Dublin's 3Arena.

The Shoos' prolonged three year absence did leave a vacant feeling in the Irish music scene that has now been filled with their recent hectic schedule. After producing two albums in as many years, the band rightly decided to take a step back before launching into The Shoos.

Their latest offering is an impressive collection of tunes that combine a classic, guitar-based rock style, with an emphasis on memorable melodies and hooks. The group were eager to produce an LP with "radio worthy" tracks, and they duly succeeded.

As you might expect, their upcoming album party gig on May 26, at The Workman's Club, will be packed full of their dynamic and exciting collection of new songs, as well as a few classics from their 2011 debut Panic Slowly and 2012's Rescue Room.
