The Crayon Set

**The Crayon Set** is a Dublin-based indie pop outfit known for crafting sunny, jangly tunes that blend nostalgic charm with modern wit. Formed in the late 2000s, the band channels the spirit of classic indie acts like The Go-Betweens or Belle and Sebastian, pairing breezy guitar hooks with clever, storytelling lyrics. Their sound—a cozy mix of retro pop and bittersweet introspection—has earned them a cult following in Ireland’s vibrant music scene, where they’re celebrated for their warm live shows and quietly anthemic songwriting.

Recent releases like *Sunlounger*, *Summer Song*, and *Downer Disco* (from their 2023 album of the same name) showcase their knack for balancing danceable grooves with sly lyrical depth. Tracks such as *Elvis Is Alive* and *Rock Star* lean into their playful side, while *Love Is a Real Place* reveals a softer, more reflective vibe. Whether remixing their own work (check the *Westcoast Goddess* or *Gui Boratto* reimaginations) or dropping cassette-tape instrumentals, The Crayon Set keeps things fresh without losing their signature laidback, melodic magic.
