Let’s do this!
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our new GoldenPlec Magazine. Over the last twelve years, we’ve built up a reputation as the go to website for music news, reviews, photography and features in Ireland; winning several Web Awards, and funding through the Arthur Guinness Projects (2013).
But that wasn’t enough. We wanted to do more. So we’re launching a 32-page quarterly freesheet magazine focused on the vibrant, contemporary music scene in Ireland and you’ll be able to get you grubby paws on it before you know it.
