Pecking Party's music is influenced by a rather long and diverse list of artists. Our sound blends elements of Electronica, Indie, Heavy Rock, Punk and Drum and Bass with soft yet robust vocals over energetic riffs and rhythms, dynamic synths and dark bass-lines.
We have been kicking around the Dublin scene for quite a while now, but 2018 was when things took off, with highlights of winning the UCD Battle of the Bands, Whelan’s Summer Watch Festival, and a completely sold out show at our self coordinated EP launch for our newest body of work "Send Nudes" in the East Side Tavern this September. We kicked off 2019 with an ambitious gig/drag crossover show Giz a Drag at the Grand Social, which was our biggest headline to date and featured four drag queens as support. We were also featured at Whelan’s Ones to Watch showcase this January.
Made up of members John Gilbride, Ciara Ryan, Fiachra (Little Fig) Kennedy & Fiachra (Big Fig) Dunn; we take pride in self-recording/producing all of our own music.
We released our debut self titled EP in June 2017, and followed this up with Send Nudes in 2018, both of which are available across all music streaming and downloading platforms. With new music in the works we are set to follow up these releases and play many more shows in 2019.
Press Coverage
"‘Night’ blends fantastic breakbeat drum patterns with a dark electro sensibility. There’s a real power in that synth bass tone, a spookiness that matches lead singer Ciara Ryan’s misty vocal delivery. Fingers crossed the rest of the EP is as good as this single." ~Nialler9
"Their infectious and distinctive sound will, without doubt, see them fare far better than the chaotic, bloody pile of dead chickens in Kesey’s novel for quite some time" ~University Observer
