Rising star Ryan Mack has been confirmed for the Hot Press Lockdown Sessions' Y&E Series on Sunday night, 27 September. Ryan – widely regarded as an artist with the potential to go right to the top – will go live on the Hot Press Instagram at 8.30pm tomorrow night!

The BIMM graduate and former member of the successful pop band HomeTown is a contemporary pop singer par excellence, who could well prove to be a global phenomenon – so catch him in this intimate setting while you can.

The Y&E Series continues to shine a light on some of the best new and emerging talent that Ireland has to offer in 2020. Following the success of the previous edition of the series, by its close, the current run will have seen 40 brilliant acts joining Hot Press on Instagram for special live-streamed performances, thanks to the support of the Department of Media, Tourism, Arts, Culture, Sport and the Gaeltacht. Already this week, the likes of SON (Susan O'Neill), Little Hours and Delush have turned in very special and memorable performances, which have been viewed by thousands of fans hungry for the live music experience.

With the immediate future of the live music industry remaining deeply problematic and uncertain, in the face of the global Covid-19 pandemic, the Y&E Series is designed to support Ireland's remarkable new generation of artists by delivering 40 paid gigs to 40 acts over 40 days.

Watch Ryan Mack tomorrow night, Sunday 27 September, as part of the Hot Press Lockdown Sessions' The Y&E Series, supported by the Department of Media, Tourism, Arts, Culture, Sport and the Gaeltacht – live on the Hot Press Instagram (@hotpressmagazine) at 8.30pm.

• In the meantime, make sure to have your reminders set for tonight's appearance in the series by Harry Fennell – who takes over the Hot Press Instagram later today. That's Harry Fennell, on Saturday night at 8.30 pm – and Ryan Mack tomorrow night at the same time. We'll see you there on both nights!
