Walshy's inaugural full-length album, "few beers," presents a diverse fusion, blending elements of teenage indie, dream-pop, and hip-hop, showcasing his distinctive and vibrant style. As a co-founder of Sleepover Club, Luke Walsh has been a driving force behind the Irish/UK music scene, supporting and inspiring numerous emerging talents. Now carving his own path, Walshy continues to refine his production, songwriting, and live performances with each new endeavor.
Initially recognized as one half of the hip-hop duo Caleb & Walshy, Walshy transitioned into a solo career in 2022, quickly gaining momentum with a string of acclaimed singles. Tracks like the soulful boom-bap "mm mm good (in the cellar)," featuring Curtisy, earned recognition as RTE2fm's track of the week by Fionnuala Moran. "Confrontation," featuring lowkick, received praise from esteemed radio host Jyoty on RINSEfm. Notably, "Shower," featuring XO LU and guitar contributions from Jack Martin of Fizzy Orange, secured a coveted spot on Spotify's New Music Friday UK playlist.
The buzz around Walshy's music culminated in a packed-out album launch at the Workman's Cellar, where he celebrated his solo discography amidst a collaborative atmosphere, showcasing the tight-knit community he has cultivated within the Irish music scene. His work continues to garner airplay on RTE2FM, RINSE FM, and BBC Introducing, with support from publications such as Wonderland, NOTION, C-Heads, Hot Press, ChillDaBeats, District, Nialler9, and Goldenplec.
