PRESENTED BY TOM MILLETT
The Rags have been blazing a trail through the Irish music scene over the last year with a host of impressive tunes, a number of scintillating concerts and some very positive reviews for their two E.P.s.
The Rags are a Dublin six piece bursting with guitar dominated pop tunes and a songwriting sensibility far outreaching their years. Having set the Dublin music scene alight with their live show, The Rags entered the studio last year with Ciaran Bradshaw to record their debut E.P., Me and the Moon featuring infectious songs like "Beats", "Stolen Car" and "Model Citizen".
Having received single of the forthnight in Hot Press, The Rags began taking their live set around Ireland and writing songs for their next recording. The Rag's next E.P., Monster and I was released earlier this year to huge critical acclaim with "Monster and I" chosen as song of the week on Ian Dempsey's Breakfast Show and The Rags picked as Artist of the Week on Tom Dunne's Petsounds.
With catchy songs like "Strawberry Bed", "You Decide to Come Alive and "Winter Wounds", The Rags are a refreshing, inventive indie rock band with intelligent lyrics, well-crafted melodies and engaging, intricate arrangements.
