Really Good Time - Instore & Signing - August 7th
Friday, August 07, 2026
Add this listing to your cart to guarantee entry To celebrate the release of their debut LP 'Affirmations', Spindizzy Records welcomes Really Good Time for a very special in-store performance and signing. Really Good Time are a three piece rock band from Dublin, compared to a blend of QOTSA and The Walkmen on Lamacq’s roundtable. “Our debut album Affirmations is a collection of songs about turning inwards when this fresh hell becomes too much. Why not fixate on some petty anxiety instead? You'll probably feel better?” “It's easy to look at the horrors unfolding around the world right now and just switch off, give in to your own powerlessness and say 'fuck it, it's all fucked anyway'. The culture and attention economy that suckles it almost seems to demand this from us.” “That feeling must be spat out and rejected.” “Lurching from one panic attack to the next, our album ultimately seeks a rejection of navel-gazing nihilism - by recognising how easy it is to slip into, then pointing at it and laughing; whether that's trying to escape the indignity of other human bodies on a crowded Dublin bus by glueing your eyes to a phone, or a stream-of-consciousness existential breakdown about finding Bob Dylan on an episode of Pawn Stars.” “Go climb a tree, scream into a pillow, and tell your friends you love them. Oh, and buy our record. Buy it twice?” Affirmations rounds up recent singles “Shit One”, “Bob Dylan was on Pawn Stars in 2010” and “Do It”, the latter of which is currently being used across RTÉ's national coverage of the FIFA World Cup. The album’s singles to date have been praised by The Sunday Times, DIY, Clash, The Line of Best Fit, Nialler9, The Thin Air and more, while being supported by the likes of BBC 6, Radio X and RTÉ at radio. Venue: Spindizzy Records (Georges St. Arcade)Date: Friday August 7thDoors: 6pm Entry: Just give your name at the door on the day once you have purchased a ticket.

Makeshift Art Bar - Instore & Signing - July 2nd
Thursday, July 02, 2026
Add this listing to your cart to guarantee entry To celebrate the release of their new EP 'Marionette', Spindizzy Records welcomes Makeshift Art Bar for a very special in-store performance and signing. Newly signed to indie heavyweights Heist or Hit (Westside Cowboy, Her’s) EP two: ‘Marionette’ has been produced by Daniel Fox (Sprints, Melts, Psychotic Monks, Naked Lungs, Nerves, Ronan Group) and it’s set to be seminal. A set text for future musicians with aspirations of innovation. “The theme of the marionette is present throughout each song, involving some aspect of a power struggle and a lack of control within oneself.” Makeshift Art Bar are not a band interested in being liked. They’re a band interested in being necessary. There’s so much eating and drinking in their work that multiple listens simply don’t satisfy; something new reveals itself on each return visit. Audacious. Idiosyncratic. Vital. A young band carrying identity, defiance and an uncompromising vision as if it isn’t a rare cargo. Venue: Spindizzy Records (Georges St. Arcade)Date: Thursday July 2ndDoors: 6:10pmPerformance: 6:15pm Entry: Just give your name at the door on the day once you have purchased a ticket.

Friday, June 12, 2026 You missed it
Add this listing to your cart to guarantee entry To celebrate the release of her debut LP 'Time of Fallow', Spindizzy Records welcomes Ellie O'Neill for a very special in-store performance and signing. In the vein of some of Ireland’s greatest talents: Sinead O’Connor; Dolores O’Riordan, O’Neill is a singer and songwriter of astonishing purity. O'Neill's music is informed by queer temporality—the theory that queer lives challenge the traditional linear flow of time—which she studied while writing her thesis for her undergraduate English degree. The structures of her songs follow similar nonlinear paths, rejecting typical verse-chorus arrangements in favor of more winding trajectories. Venue: Spindizzy Records (Georges St. Arcade)Date: Friday June 12thDoors: 6pm Entry: Just give your name at the door on the day once you have purchased a ticket. You can get a refund if:It’s within 24 hours of buying tickets, This event is rescheduled or cancelled. You can't get a refund within 24 hours of the event start time.
