HousePlants (Paul Noonan + Daithí) – share 115 minute live performance video “Live at The Beekeepers”

Brought to you by long-time collaborator Allyn Quigley, “Live at The Beekeepers” captures
HousePlants in their element—bold, dynamic, and electrifying.

The 115-minute live performance, filmed at The Beekeepers Artist Retreat in County Clare,
serves as a heartfelt thank-you to fans who joined the band during their recent tour celebrating
the release of their album, Half Known Things.

Paul Noonan says “At the risk of being a hot-air merchant(!!), I feel that there is a peculiar and
singular alchemy to how we play as a band. Having made the first record in our respective
bunkers, Daithí and I asked our friends Sinead, Glenn, and Alex to be in the live band with us,
and I’m delighted that we have this beautiful photograph of where we’ve taken the songs.”
Daithí says: “Coming off a run of incredible shows celebrating Half Known Things, I’m thrilled to
have a full, powerful recording that truly captures where HousePlants is right now. Performing
with this band is something I deeply cherish, and having Allyn document it so vividly makes it
even more special.”

Filmmaker Allyn Quigley adds: “When the Houseplants guys asked me to capture them
performing their tracks thus far in The Beekeepers, I knew it was a perfect opportunity to show
people a side of the band that they maybe hadn’t seen before. My only request was that the
tracks be performed in a straight run as close as possible to a live performance – to try capture
that unique, electric, joyful energy that they bring to their gigs and create the feeling of being a
fly on the wall, sitting back watching a characteristically laid back but well-oiled Houseplants
rehearsal.”
