SUMMARY:Bleech 9:3
LOCATION:Arts Club
DESCRIPTION:When Bleech 9:3 songwriters/guitarists Barry Quinlan and Sam Du
 ffy first crossed paths in their early twenties\, it almost seemed inconce
 ivable that they hadn’t met before. Throughout their tumultuous teenage 
 years spent gigging in various projects around Dublin\, they’d lived nea
 r-parallel lives mired by the chaos-purgatory spiral of addiction\; like t
 wo shadows cast by the same light but never touching. In the throes of the
  early stages of recovery – when a better life still felt elusive and in
 tangible\, something to be hoped for\, though not necessarily to be believ
 ed in – Barry and Sam were introduced to each other at a 12-step rehab p
 rogramme. Barry soon signed up to be his new friend’s sponsor and take h
 im through the process\, and felt energised by the similarities in their a
 mbitions and worldview. “I think to find someone your own age\, with the
  same dreams as you\, from the same city and is also suffering from the sa
 me thing… we knew immediately that we could help each other\,” recalls
  Sam. “You can lose your mind thinking about how rare that is. However u
 nsteady their respective circumstances may have been at the time\, a brigh
 ter\, more creative future suddenly came into focus. In between “secret
 ” writing sessions the foundations of Bleech 9:3 were born\, giving Barr
 y and Sam purpose to move forward. “From the point of view of recovery a
 nd sobriety\, we shared an intrinsic understanding of each other. It felt 
 like we were building something very\, very special\,” says Barry. Three
  years on from Barry and Sam’s chance meeting\, and Bleech 9:3 are on th
 e crest of a wave. Completed by James Quinlan (bass) and Luke O’Neill (d
 rums)\, the band are one of the most in-demand new live acts on the circui
 t\, after a storming 2025 saw them open up for Keo and Shame alongside boo
 king sold-out headline shows. They became a word-of-mouth wonder in a matt
 er of months\, earning early acclaim from press and radio\, before the yea
 r culminated in an electrifying three-night residency at London’s Blue B
 asement. With only a handful of singles to their name\, Bleech 9:3 have es
 tablished a sound that’s as evocative as it is crunchy and in-your-face
 \, deftly gliding between sharp\, irrepressible melodies and heavy blasts 
 of distortion whenever the mood demands. They draw from a shared adoration
  of seminal acts like Radiohead\, Deftones and Nirvana\, as well as more c
 ontemporary names like Fontaines D.C. and Sleep Token.\n\nBoletos: https:/
