‼️ARTIST SPOTLIGHT‼️

Their sound being described as “trashy, full throttle 90’s nostalgia and effortlessly emotional”, & “the
lovechild of The Smashing Pumpkins & Thin Lizzy,” HOUSEMATES are a three-piece band from Galway that combines their love of 90’s alternative with modern themes, cutting through the noise of a new wave of heavy alternative music on the west coast. Named after a decision to move from Dublin to Galway, the band has spent the last three years garnering a cultish following in the wake of their “electric” live shows. Not an act to be missed, come see them on Friday open for little wars at QSU!
