Maria Somerville returns to Brew after a spectacular show alongside Good Sad Happy Bad in April. 

Maria Somerville draws on folk forms alongside post-punk, traditional Irish motifs, starry eyed pop and hypnotic drones to create wholly original music that is borne of her roots in Connemara, Western Ireland.

Since joining 4AD, Maria has released two covers as part of the label’s 40th anniversary Bills &amp; Aches &amp; Blues compilation, and an incredibly well received second album 'Luster'. An otherworldly yet grounded record including atmospheric and whirring dreamgaze singles ‘Spring’ and ‘Garden’, channels her experiences on the bank of the Corrib in her native Connemara, Ireland and pays homage to the sonic tapestry woven by classic 4AD collective This Mortal Coil. 

In the short time since its release, the critically acclaimed record has seen a Best New Music accolade from Pitchfork and a glowing Guardian review, among other pieces of praise such as being named one of The FADER’s ‘30 coolest artists right now’, and Clash and Loud &amp; Quiet’s best albums of 2025 so far.

In continued celebration of Luster, Maria Somerville will hit the road in Spring, with continued dates across the United States (including Big Ears Festival in Knoxville, TN), the UK, and her native Ireland (headline dates in Limerick, Dublin, and Galway). In addition, she has just been announced as support on two of My Bloody Valentine’s UK/EU tour dates this November (Manchester and Dublin), which fittingly follows her naming the band’s seminal record Loveless as her Pitchfork Perfect 10. This forthcoming run follows highly touted sold-out 2025 shows in New York and London amidst other buzzy headline dates across the UK/EU/US (with shows alongside
Chanel Beads, james K, and others).

The full Luster (Remixes) EP, rounded out with further remixes from YHWH Nailgun, Asa Nisi Masa &amp; Oscar 18, and Boris, will be available digitally on 21 January 21.

“Dynamic, at times almost ambient, but always hopelessly beautiful.” - Clash

“One of Ireland’s most vital young voices.” – Bandcamp

“Glows with a beautifully wistful, spectral aura and an aching longing as she laments over a lilting, submerged bassline and murky ambience.” – Gorilla V Bear

“Trails of languid melodies…hazy, improvisatory elements and propelling drones create a fluid design that, like a Jacob’s ladder toy, collapses and perplexes.” – Dusted Magazine

“Pop, trad and electronica are fused into gripping new contortions by the Connemara-born artist.” – Irish Times

“An artist whose music creates an atmosphere of timeless grace, music that seems to stand alone in its own space.” – Totally Dublin

NASHPAINTS

Nashpaints is Finn Carraher McDonald from Kilmacud, Dublin, Ireland. His music broadly sits in experimental / ambient / dream-pop / folk, often blending acoustic instrumentation, field recordings, and atmosphere to build moody, immersive soundscapes. 

His most prominent release is the album Blindman The Gambler, released June 15, 2020 on the Irish label wherethetimegoes - the Dublin-based independent label / collective that supports experimental and left-field Irish artists. 

As part of that community, he contributes to a contemporary wave of Irish music that blends traditional influences, ambient sound design, electronic minimalism, and folky introspection — often resisting mainstream commercial pressure in favour of expressive, intimate, and atmospheric work.
