Irish music is on the up.
It’s no secret that Dublin is a hub for amazing, up and coming musical artists.
We’ve got singers like Erica Cody and Soulé, rappers like Mango Dassle and God Knows, and of course bands like Le Boom and Hare Squead.
There are SO many talented singer and musicans out at the minute – and these are some of my favourite that need to be on the radio stat…

Originating from Dunboyne in County Meath, CMAT is a songwriter and singer who has a voice like Dolly Parton and First Aid Kit put together.
She writes funny, witty lyrics and of course, can play multiple instruments. Amazing.

The duo create their own songs and make beautiful covers, my favourite in particular is their mashup of Madonna’s Ray of Light and Massive Attack’s Teardrop.
