John Barker is bringing his 98Fm radio show Totally Irish out of the safety of Marconi House to the stage of The Button Factory Factory for a series of free showcase gigs Tilt. (Totally Irish Live Tuesdays).

Tilt. a monthly showcase event commences tonight (October 29th) with performances from 4 up-and-coming Irish acts Munky, Bullet Girl, Synk and TOYGIRL.

John Barker has joined forces with The Sound Training College and The Button Factory to provide not only the showcase but to give the acts a day of pre-production before the event takes place. A professional video of one of their songs from their performance on the night. A day’s recording in Sun Studios, Temple Bar and a chance to be featured on Totally Irish on 98fm.

“We want to create a regular event that gives an all round experience to every act that performs with us – from getting the lighting, setlist and sound right at pre-production; to being interviewed on radio as promo for the gig; to performing at the gig itself in front of a big audience and learning from that – to post gig with the day’s recording in Sun Studios and a video of their performance on the night.” explains John Barker.
