🔈 SIGNS OF LIFE—rooted in club culture and blurring the line between a gig and a club night, SIGNS is a party series with a wide and diverse music program spanning jazz, soul, funk, trad, world/global, hip hop, disco, and house/techno/electro music, alongside more left-field sounds and beyond.
🔈 Melina Malone is one of Ireland’s most compelling contemporary voices in R&B and neo-soul. Known for her rich, expressive vocals and honest songwriting, she crafts music that balances timeless soul with a modern jazz edge.
Renowned for her exceptional live presence, Melina has shared stages with artists such as Grammy-winning jazz legend Gregory Porter, Macy Gray, Say She She, and St Paul & The Broken Bones. Most recently, Melina was chosen as a showcasing artist at Riga Music Week in Latvia, performed two sold out Irish shows in Dublin’s iconic Sugar Club and Guinness Cork Jazz Festival and made her television debut on RTE’s The Tommy Tiernan Show earlier this year.
Her artistry continues to resonate deeply with audiences and tastemakers alike, with BBC Radio 1 Future Artists host Tara Kumar praising her as “nothing short of spellbinding… she is just wrapped in raw, authentic talent.” With each release, Melina Malone pushes the boundaries of contemporary soul, establishing herself as a vital and authentic voice in Irish music and beyond.
🔈 Ana Palindrome is an Irish experimental art-pop trio. First emerging in 2024 with digital single ‘SORRY A MILLION’, the group have since become regular fixtures amongst the contemporary Irish independent live scene, performing at numerous festivals and alongside notable acts such as OXN, Lankum and Mount Eerie. Their position amongst their peers is a somewhat unique one, acting as a bridge between the country's widely celebrated traditional avant-folk revival and its experimental electronic landscape. Rather than adhering strictly to one camp, Ana Palindrome adopt a magpie approach to sound, collecting shiny sonic fragments from the worlds of pop, folk, new wave, and psychedelic rock to forge melodically-centred music that’s equally tender, wonky and heartfelt.
Ana is drawn towards repetition, soft beats and a hook that’ll keep you hangin’. She's restless, and in a permanent feeling of inbetweenness. Currently residing somewhere over nearby the roundabout between Later On and The Other Day, she rarely if ever knows whether she's coming or going. That is neither here nor there.
🔈 Eddie Reynolds aka Tr One is a DJ and producer based in Carlow, Ireland, and a respected figure in the country’s electronic music scene. Influenced by Dublin’s D1 Recordings, Kraftwerk, Detroit techno and vintage sounds from Chicago and New York, he began experimenting with production in the early 2000s.
A prolific producer, Reynolds has released music on leading Irish labels including Lunar Disko, Apartment, Bodytonic, 393 and Pogo, alongside international imprints such as Don’t Be Afraid, Short Attention and Ashigakari. His productions have earned support from artists including Moodymann, Laurent Garnier and Moxie, with remixes from Sonja Moonear, Lerosa and John Heckle.
As a DJ, Reynolds has played across Ireland and internationally, appearing at venues in London, Manchester, New York and Berlin. His festival credits include Electric Picnic, Longitude, Body and Soul and Beyond The Pale, and he currently holds a residency at Dublin’s Pawnshop.
Known for his eclectic approach, he has shared lineups with electronic music pioneers and contemporary artists including Juan Atkins, DJ Stingray, Helena Hauff and Jeff Mills. He also pioneered a distinctive hardware-based live show in Ireland, recently revived for festivals including Open Ear and Another Love Story.
Reynolds runs his own label, Intrinsic Rhythm, which has released eight records of original material and remixes. His recent solo release, Is This The End, and collaboration with New Jackson under the alias MMOTTORR continue his contribution to Irish electronic music.
🔈 Aoife Nic Canna has been a central force in the Irish dance music scene since its earliest days in the early 1990s. A founding member of the seminal Horny Organ Tribe, and dubbed the first lady of Irish house by Hot Press, she made regular appearances at culture-defining nights and clubs such as Cork's Mór Disco, Dublin's Temple of Sound, and Manchester's Hacienda.
Throughout her 35-year career, Aoife has maintained several residencies across Ireland. Since the pandemic, she has returned to regular guest dates at a who's who of Dublin venues and events, including the Guinness Storehouse, Opium, District, Hen's Teeth, Izakaya Basement, Bernard Shaw and Pawn Shop.
Highlights include supporting Inner City at Discotekken 10 Years in The Button Factory, Paradise Lost in Ibiza in 2023, and Carl Cox at District 8 over the August Bank Holiday weekend in 2024. In June 2023, she also played a show 30 years in the making, supporting Soft Cell and OMD at Dublin's St. Anne's Park in front of an audience of 20,000.
🔈 GAMOTO! is a trip around the world on vinyl: '70s Afrobeat, Tropicália and Cumbia rubbing shoulders with funk, garage and rock 'n' roll. Two Dublin selectors, all wax, all groove.
🔈 Pablo Santo is a DJ and selector who refuses to be boxed in. With roots in Brazil and a home in Dublin, his sound is a testament to his musical journey. Known for his ability to effortlessly move between genres, styles, and tempos, he’s a favorite in the Dublin scene and has shared stages with some of the biggest names in dance music, including Palms Trax, Avalon Emerson, and Gerd Janson. As one half of the Different Rhythm crew, he's dedicated to introducing audiences to new sounds, both on the dance floor and through his monthly show on Dublin Digital Radio.
🔈 Handsome Paddy has spent over two decades behind the decks, with a mixing style rooted in hip-hop skills and spanning funk, disco, house and beyond. Alongside countless festival appearances and ten years hosting a weekly show on RTÉ 2XM, he has shared bills with a long list of international artists including MF DOOM, Freddie Gibbs, Erykah Badu, A$AP Rocky and DJ Premier. Recent highlights include performing as live DJ for both Cormega and Jeru the Damaja in Dublin.
