Cruel Sister, For Nina and more to play Halloween week show

Cruel Sister, For Nina, Hotgirl and CABL are set to play a Halloween themed gig on Tuesday, October 28 at the Grand Social Loft, Dublin.

Alternative, indie artist Cruel Sister released her first single 'my forever' in 2021. She has gone on to put out three EPs, 2022's girls my age, 2023's Turgid and this year's A CORPSE IS TALKING. 

The Dublin singer's name was inspired by the traditional ballad ‘The Twa Sisters’, which recounts the story of a girl drowned by her sister.

For Nina are a Dublin-based rock trio who formed last year. They have put out a handful of singles, their most recent being June's 'Swallow'.

Starting as a DIY project by lead vocalist Ashley Abbedeen, Hotgirl quickly evolved into a genre blending four-piece. The band have opened for acts including The Libertines, SPRINTS and Pillow Queens.

Lastly, CABL call themselves "an alternative rock band put through a broken dishwasher".

The group blends shoegaze with pop, emo, metal and folk, drawing inspiration from bands such as Just Mustard and Big Thief.

Their debut EP See You In a Year and a Half was released last year.
