THIS WEEKEND 🔥 Irish indie-rocker Weston Loney brings his The Bombshell Tour to Limelight, Belfast this Saturday (20th June)! 🎸🎶

🎫 Final remaining tickets on sale now via Ticketmaster.

Weston Loney is an indie rock artist from County Armagh, Northern Ireland, making waves with his raw energy and anthemic sound. His latest EP Half Cut includes standout tracks “Lost In The Wild,” “Meltdown,” and “Tequila & Lime,” which landed on Spotify’s Fresh Finds Rock playlist. His newest single, “Ghost,” continues that momentum with placements on Spotify’s All New Rock and Fresh Finds, alongside features on Apple Music’s Breaking Alternative and Breaking Rock.

Weston has shared the stage with artists including Shed Seven, The Lathums, Kingfishr, and Megan Moroney, and will headline shows this fall across London, Glasgow, Manchester, Belfast, and Dublin. Performing with his close-knit band of friends—known for their “wild on the night” live shows—Weston channels influences from Kings of Leon, Razorlight, and Bruce Springsteen. Inspired by the first time he heard Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “Under the Bridge,” his music blends heartfelt storytelling with stadium-ready grit.

British Rock and indie icons, Razorlight, have announced a tour of the UK & Ireland for November and December to commemorate 20 years since their smash hit, second album, Razorlight. The release went 5 times platinum, topping the UK album charts, landing them a UK Number 1 single, and catapulting the four-piece, fronted by Johnny Borrell, into the mainstream.

Support comes from London punk-inspired brother and sister duo The Molotovs, fresh from a UK No. 3 album and a run of blistering shows across the country. The December 4 date at OVO Arena Wembley will be a celebration of British guitar music, with The K’s joining to complete a standout three-band bill.

Razorlight was released in 2006. In the years since, the band has connected with a new generation of fans, averaging more than 1.6 million monthly Spotify listeners. Their achievements include a UK No. 1 album, a Number 1 single, three UK Top 5 albums, two multi-platinum albums, and eight UK Top 20 singles.

Creating art purely for the love of it is a rare and powerful thing. For As It Is, it became essential. Reuniting for the first time in years, Patty Walters, Ben Langford-Biss, Ali Testo and Patrick Foley reflected on the highs and lows of their 13-year journey and found renewed inspiration in one another. The result is As It Is — their first record as a quartet in eight years. Bold, honest and cathartic, the album sees the band reconnecting not only with each other, but with the reasons they started making music in the first place.
