Skinner is a DIY slouch rock artist based in Dublin, who writes, records, and produces music that captures the gritty reality of growing up in the 21st century. His sound draws from the raw intensity of no wave and post-punk pioneers like The B52s, James Chance and the Contortions, and ESG, while also paying homage to alt-rock icons such as Pixies and Morphine. Skinner’s music is characterized by grunge-influenced self-production, combined with moments of intricate instrumentation that set his work apart.

His releases have resonated widely, earning spots on prominent playlists like Spotify’s New Music Friday UK, All New Punk, The Punk List, Fresh Finds Rock, Post Punk 2K, Shockwave, and Apple Music’s New In Rock playlist. Skinner’s tracks have also received airplay on major radio stations including BBC Radio 1, BBC NI, 2FM, Triple R, Flux FM, and Indie XL.

“Skinner throws his voice into a relatable release of exasperation. Through his lackadaisical vocal delivery, he maintains a nonchalant coolness that translates perfectly through the single’s accompanying DIY video.”— So Young Magazine

“Tip-toeing around the truth is an exercise that we have all been guilty of at some stage and Skinner acknowledges it sonically in a manner totally authentic to him: grungy guitar lines meet thrashing drums complimented by his quirky, accented vocal melodies.”— Nialler9
