12” EP – Standard Edition Black Vinyl pressed at Anthem Vinyl, Co. Kildare.

Irish alternative-folk six-piece Madra Salach release their debut 12″ EP, Its a Hell of an Age on January 23 . The EP features the breakout track The Man Who Seeks Pleasure, a song that became a fan favourite across the bands packed festival run in Ireland last summer.

The band sparked a word-of-mouth buzz across festival crowds and the Irish music press this summer, with support from Nialler9, Hot Press, The Goo, GoldenPlec, with a casual session for Lips2Ears recorded at Doyles Pub in Dublin being shared among punters. The announcement of the groups debut EP and singles I Was Just A Boy and “Blue & Gold,” saw the group further championed by The Line of Best Fit, So Young, DIY Magazine, The Independent among others, with multiple spins by Deb Grant at 6 Music.

The EP announcement sees a breakout year for the band. Having stormed the Irish indie circuit they quickly became a must-see at showcase festivals Left of the Dial, Live At Leeds, The Great Escape: First50 and Eurosonic, before selling out their Ireland and UK headline tour kicking this Feb & March in a matter of a few days.
