Episode 187: Daddee

Daddee are making their return on the podcast today!I'll be joined by Darragh and Ciaran about the band's debut album, 'Weekend at the Martello', which is available on July 16th, this Wednesday!Combining heavy rock'n'roll with lyrical wit and storytelling, Daddee’s music is a cocktail of dark humour and social commentary. Taking cues from Queens of the Stone Age, LCD Soundsystem, Courtney Barnett, and Viagra Boys, the band crafts a sound that’s at once raw, melodic, and unpredictable.Weekend at the Martello is a concept album set in a seedy pub by the sea — The Martello. Each track offers a glimpse into the life of a different, often troubled or absurd, patrons. The result is a vivid gallery of characters rendered with dark humour and blistering energy. Several of these personas are portrayed in the album’s striking artwork.The album was recorded primarily in a DIY home studio/bedroom, with drums tracked at Beardfire Studio, and mixed by Gary O’Reilly.To celebrate the release of this wonderful album, Daddee will be playing their launch show this Friday alongside Queen Bitch and Zizou in Sin E.
