Fresh off the back of their UK Tour,\u00a0 Pillow Queens today announces a second Vicar Street show due to phenomenal demand, Sunday 2nd October \u201822. This follows the news that the headline show on 1st October is sold out. They will also perform in Empire, Belfast – Friday, 14th October \u201822.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Tickets for the second show will go on sale this Friday, 26th November at 10am via www.singularartists.ie<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since forming in Dublin in late 2016, <\/span>Pillow Queens<\/b> have seen their initial word of mouth buzz grow with every new release. From sharing stages with the likes of<\/span> IDLES , Soak and Pussy Riot,<\/b> to their own sold out shows, the band have developed a community of loyal and passionate fans. The winter of 2019 saw the band travel to the wilds of rural Co. Donegal to record their debut album with award winning producer <\/span>Tommy Mclaughlin.<\/b><\/p>\n

Released through the bands own label in September 2020 to near universal critical acclaim, IN WAITING surpassed all expectations, with The Irish Times 5-star review calling it \u201cAn Emotional Masterpiece\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The album was duly nominated for Ireland’s prestigious Choice album of the year award.<\/span><\/p>\n

The album gained Album of the Day and A list play on BBC 6 Music, and drew praise and support from the likes of NPRs All songs Considered and KEXPs song of the day.<\/span><\/p>\n

As more people fell hard for the record, 2021 began with the band being invited to make their US Late Night television debut on CBS\u2019s The Late Late Show and continued to be a special one for Pillow Queens as they signed with Sub Pop Publishing.<\/span><\/p>\n

In May, the band returned to their Dublin city practice space to begin writing their next record, and have recently found a new home for it, signing a worldwide deal with Toronto\u2019s Royal Mountain Records.<\/span><\/p>\n

The rest of the year will see the band complete their long delayed sold out Irish and UK tour dates.<\/span><\/p>\n

Connect with Pillow Queens online via their official <\/span>website<\/span><\/a>, Twitter<\/span><\/a>, Facebook<\/span><\/a>, Instagram<\/span><\/a>, and\u00a0<\/span>Spotify<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
