Tús Nua

**Tús Nua** is an indie folk-rock trio hailing from Dublin, Ireland, known for blending lush Celtic influences with gritty modern alt-rock energy. Formed in 2018 by siblings Aoife Murphy (lead vocals/fiddle) and Cian Murphy (guitar/vocals), along with drummer Éamonn Walsh, the band cut their teeth performing in Ireland’s pub circuit before gaining traction with their 2020 debut EP *Horizons*. Their sound marries traditional Irish instrumentation like tin whistle and fiddle with roaring guitar riffs and introspective lyrics about resilience, self-discovery, and Ireland’s landscapes—themes echoed in tracks like the fiery “Geysir” and the anthemic “Ride.”

Praised for their electrifying live shows and genre-blurring approach (think The Cranberries meets Glen Hansard), Tús Nua has built a loyal following across Europe. Recent singles like “Lights Out” and “Palindrome” showcase their evolution toward moodier, riff-driven territory while retaining their knack for storytelling. Though relatively private about their personal lives, the band often credits their Irish roots and DIY ethos as driving forces behind their raw, emotionally charged music.
