Autre Monde’s debut album “The Imaginary Museum” produced by Daniel Fox (Girl Band) is out this Friday (28th February on Strange Brew). To celebrate, Autre Monde have announced a headline show in The Workman’s Club this April. The group featuring Paddy Hanna on vocals have also been selected to appear at SXSW 2020 later this year. But if you happen to be around Mayo this weekend you can catch them at Other Voices.

“The Imaginary Museum” features the brand new ’80s tinged single Brain Upon Your Pillow. “I wrote ‘Brain Upon Your Pillow’ as a kind of Latin-y folk ballad, all finger picked guitar. It was written in the midst of Autre Monde really finding its feet, understanding what we were as a band, and it was just natural that it would become this groove thing with a hint of desperation and drama. That Grace Jones Pull Up to the Bumper beat, we’d be happy to play it for hours, so the song stretches out on it a bit before taking its other turns. It’s a paranoid song, it’s about not sleeping and the threats that torment the character at night. I always picture them as some kind of huckster made good for whom the con is over. It’s Uncut Gems!” explains bassist, Padraig Cooney.

Autre Monde at The Workman’s Club, on Saturday 11th April 2020. Tickets €12 on sale this Friday 28th February at 9AM.
