Beauty Sleep 

Based in Belfast and hailing from Derry, this indie crew fuse dream-pop synths, fuzzy bass and delicate vocal lines. Self-described “radical art-pop sweethearts”, Beauty Sleep are comprised of producer and songwriting duo Cheylene Murphy and Ryan McGroarty.

In May 2019, they released their debut album Be Kind via Quiet Arch. Previous single ‘I Love It Here I Hate It’ saw the pair making use of big brass and bold pop melodies with ‘70s-inspired results, while 2021’s ‘Go’ boasted thrilling synths and guitar riffs.

Hear: ‘I Love It Here I Hate It’
