Singular Artists<\/strong> proudly announces the return of Wider Than Pictures <\/em>– a series of exceptional shows taking place at the National Museum of Ireland, Collins Barracks \u2013 this August. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Franz Ferdinand are fresh off the back of their \u2018Hits To The Head\u2019 world tour featuring a 20 track greatest hits collection showcasing the world-conquering success of the band\u2019s career to date. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They released \u2018Hits To The Head\u2019 in 2022 via Domino Records, who signed the Scottish rock band in 2003. Their second single \u2018Take Me Out\u2019 exploded onto the international stage, putting the band firmly on the global map, and was a precursor to their eponymous debut album which went on to sell nearly four million copies worldwide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Supporting Franz Ferdinand are Pillow Queens from Dublin – Sarah, Pam, Rachel, and Cathy. All in different bands when they met, they instantly hit it off and shared the same musical vision.\u00a0Within a few years of playing around Ireland and beyond, they had gained a strong following along with a reputation for being a live band you had to see. They released many singles and thought-provoking videos which lead up to their debut album, ‘Leave The Light On’ in 2020. After the pandemic they followed it up with ‘In Waiting’ in 2022. Both albums were nominated for the Choice Music Prize. They toured all over the world in 2022, appearing on James Corden’s Late Late Show in the US and selling out 2 shows in Vicar St in October of that year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
