TELL NO FOXX
The Wicklow trio of Brian Sillery, Luke Lacey and Johnny Flood have been creating music together since 2012, spending those past few years working on writing and production skills in Luke's makeshift studio. Touted as “Gloom Pop” by Hotpress magazine, Tell No Foxx released 4 tracks in July 2014. Mixing natural instrumentation with dark and moody electronic production, Tell No Foxx's debut received widespread acclaim and was often noted as a nod to eighties electronic bands with contemporary taste and intelligent lyrics. “Beautify presented dark and moody production, incredible for a first EP very adventurous” - Across The Line, BBC Radio Ulster - just one of the many accolades the lads have gained for their debut EP. Performance highlights have included MTV Cork Music Trial 2014 // Hard Working Class Heroes 2013 & 2014 // AMA Music Agency's Talent Search, "Top 5 Most Promising Irish Acts" // Other Voices Derry 2013 to name but a few. We look forward to hearing a stripped down acoustic version of some of their standout tracks at the Space Inside.
