The Last Mixed Tape announces its 5th Anniversary Line-Up at The Sound House, 7th February

TLMT 5 - The Last Mixed Tape

One of Ireland's most valuable music critics, Stephen White, celebrates the 5th year of The Last Mixed Tape at The Sound House in Dublin on Thursday, 7th of February. As with previous years, TLMT has arranged a mouth-watering line-up comprised of Sorcha RichardsonJackie Beverly and Dowry. Like The Last Mixed Tape itself, these shows have become annual highlights for fans of independent Irish music. Previous acts who have performed at the yearly celebration include Swords, Paddy Hanna, Montauk Hotel, Bad Bones, September Girls, Beauty Sleep and other quality acts which have shaped the local music scene in their own unique way. 

TLMT has garnered a solid and reliable reputation amongst bands and music fans as a place where analyses of music is conducted in a most impartial manner, but more importantly, he backs up his written word with evidence. On a personal level, and this probably isn't the most appropriate place to state this (but a half-decade is a landmark achievement!), my respect for his views on music grows year on year since I started reading The Last Mixed Tape, not to mention his unwavering support for Irish artists. He'll hate me saying all this, but it is what it is, I don't want to inhabit an Irish music landscape where TLMT does not exist, so let's celebrate!


Taking place at the Sound House, Dublin on Thursday, February 7th TLMT 5 will feature live performances from acclaimed songwriter and TLMT favorite Sorcha Richardson, Sorcha’s recent single ‘Can’t We Pretend’ featured in TLMT’s Top 10 Songs Of 2018. 

Jackie Beverly will also appear as part of the line-up, Beverly's debut single 'Out of Reasons' featured in TLMT's Top 50 Songs of 2018. Dowry, will perform at TLMT 5 next month, the multi-instrumentalist, whose debut single was the breath-taking ‘In É’, recently made TLMT's 10 Emerging Artist for 2019. See below for music from all three artists.
