Emerging Irish artists Berlin bound

The Things, Betamax Format, Dry Country, Channel One, 8 Ball, God Is An Astronaut, Goodtime John and Scroeder Soundsystem have all been chosen to perform under the Music From Ireland banner at the showcase.
The primary goal of the collective is to present a 'united front' by the Irish music industry and to gain exposure for the bands outside their domestic stomping ground. Berlin certainly worked for Bowie; let’s hope it’s just as fruitful for our lot.
