LIVE REVIEW - NEW RULES - DUBLIN

The band opened their set in this dynamic venue in the heart of the Irish capital on Sunday night. The Sound House is your classic local venue with the added charm of deep Irish culture and friendly synergy. 

Gracing the stage this evening was pop band, New Rules, who made their way through the crowd to the stage adding to the ambience of the intimate gig. The band’s guitarist and self proclaimed back up dancer, Ryan Meaney, opened his hometown show with the band’s 2024 single Back To The Drawing Board. 

Complimented by lead vocalist and guitarist, Alec McGarry and Nathan Lambert, the three piece band made their way through their set of primarily original tracks. Including their popular single Drunk Texts, from their 2022 album “Go The Distance”. Which was featured as an off mic version allowing the silent audience to hear the band’s melodic vocals in their rawest form. 

The three boys finished their set with their popular tracks Pasta and Really Wanna Dance With You. Bringing an already captivating evening to a vibrant close.
