The Murder Capital – have just been announced as the next act to play Live at The Iveagh Gardens series next summer

Get ready to rock the Iveagh Gardens in Dublin as Irish rock/post-punk band The Murder Capital take over the stage on 19 July 2025 joined by some very special guests
Soft Play (formerly Slaves) and Mary in the Junkyard

Following the universal acclaim for their two first records, The Murder Capital are back with ‘Blindness’, the vividly realised, clear-sightedly ambitious new album. A record that’s momentous and charged with momentum, it’s full of geography – of the mind, and of a Dublin-formed band whose members are now scattered around Ireland, London and Europe – yet bristles with an intense energy.

There’s a wider, richer perspective animating The Murder Capital’s new set of songs, brought on from the diverse insights the five members were bringing to the creative process, differing worldviews arising from their literal new positions in the world. Drummer Diarmuid Brennan was living in Berlin, bass player Gabriel “G” Paschal Blake was in Letterkenny, guitarist Cathal “Pump“ Roper was in Donegal, and guitarist Damien “Irv” Tuit and McGovern were in London. The album prioritizes urgency, energy, freshness – all baked into the songs from their earliest incarnations, recorded in LA with the help of Grammy-winning producer John Congleton.
