SPRINTS (Friday Warm-Up Party Headliner)

“The Dublin four-piece bring noisy post-punk energy to raw, frank, witty lyrics – best caught live.” – The Guardian
“Confrontational, ferocious and bold” – Loud & Quiet

There’s a palpable flurry of momentum surrounding SPRINTS right now. The Dublin band have enjoyed a whirlwind year: in a blur of back-to-back wins, they unveiled their Top 20 debut album Letter To Self, opened for IDLES and Pixies, and delivered feverishly talked-about sets at Glastonbury, End Of The Road and All Together Now. All of this has led to them becoming an essential new name in contemporary rock, building a reputation for urgent, compassionate songwriting blackened by personal tales of trauma and resilience.

Since the January ’24 release of Letter To Self – which received 5* reviews from NME, DIY and Dork, plus acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork and Brooklyn Vegan – the four-piece have taken their visceral live energy to sold-out shows across the globe. Harnessing the adrenaline of non-stop gigging into new material has resulted in Feast, an intriguing introduction to SPRINTS’ next era and a window into a bold, transformative stage of the band’s ascent.
