little xs for eyes

**little xs for eyes** was a charming indie pop band from Dublin, Ireland, known for their lush harmonies and bittersweet melodies. Formed in the late 2000s around siblings Eileen and Brendan Gaffney, the group expanded to include Alan Mulready, Davey Moore, and Bryan McMahon, creating a sound that blended whimsical storytelling with shimmering guitars and synth textures. Their self-titled 2009 EP and debut album *Everywhere Else* (2012) showcased their knack for crafting emotionally resonant pop gems, with tracks like "S.A.D." capturing their signature mix of warmth and introspection. Though they toured Ireland and shared stages with acts like Delorentos, the band quietly drifted into hiatus by 2013, leaving behind a small but beloved catalog of dreamy, heartfelt tunes.
