Pebbledash have just announced their headline show in Winthrop Avenue, Cork on Thursday 27th March 2025.

Pebbledash most recently released the hotly anticipated debut EP Four Portraits of the Same Ugly House (Jan 31st). Building a reputation for their unique blend of shoegaze, noise rock, dream pop and traditional Irish music, the band continue to build on their growing momentum on an EP brimming with rich musical ideas.

Talking about the EP, the band add: “The EP is an exploration of my time in Cork city or the ‘Ugly House’ as it is referred to in the title. The Ugly House Is a term of endearment from us to refer to the charm of Cork taking in its beauty but also the imperfections. A house is where we all feel most safe and able to express ourselves and I think this ‘ugly’ imperfection is what gives Cork the allure and allows the freedom of expression we get when writing and recording. Written at a time where music had become my main focus in Life and all experiences both negative and positive were growing from this, Encased in this small city I found myself becoming familiar with its places and people and these four songs are the portraits of the most impactful moments and feelings. Although many of the songs were started in Cork they were finished when I had to move away for a significant period of  time and this feeling of missing friends and spaces I had come to love informed the melancholy of the EP, the songs are quite dynamic and reflected the changing emotions I was feeling at the time. Somehow they appear as love songs but once heard they reveal a depth of my emotions captured over an entire year of change and growth condensed into songs that we have made lyrically and musically rich and now release with a cleanse to anyone who wants to listen.”
