Debut album and live show from Pity of the Sea

LIMERICK duo Pity of the Sea will release their long awaited debut album ‘Incessant’ on Friday October 21 through Bandcamp on limited orange vinyl and digital download.
POTS released a number of singles in the last two years picking up airplay on national and local radio. The single ‘A Swarming’ is a particular favourite, the sharp shock of electro punk garnered praise from Hot Press magazine’s Stuart Clarke (“Coruscating post-punkery”) and radio DJ Paul McLoone, (“Just brilliant”).
Pity Of The Sea was formed as a studio project between experienced musicians Ger Cremins and Tony Monahan. Their shared love of art and music has formed the basis of this collection of uncompromising songs, gathering their influences both artistically and sonically.
From the opening track ‘Think Twice’ with its earworm chorus to the epic closer ‘Headscarf’ the duo create a pulsating wide screen soundscape made to be heard loud.
The album was recorded and produced by Tony who has huge experience as a musician and producer having recorded numerous albums, EP’s and teen projects. His work with Protobaby is of special note whom he has regularly produced and toured with. Tony’s work with Music Generation Limerick City led to him being actively involved in the beginnings of new acts like Powpig, Hazey Haze, Vacuity, PX music, 50ft Woman to name a few. This had a huge influence on Pity Of The Sea’s approach to writing and recording.
The album will be launched in Dolans on Saturday October 22 Live at The Kasbah.
The live show will be our first chance to hear and see the broad range of artistic elements which have influenced both the music created by the duo and the artworks created for the album by Limerick artist Anne-Marie Moran.
