Blas do Theanga presents a night of original music from three of Drogheda’s latest up and coming artists. Sophie Moon, KIDD and Téga, will take the Odd Mollies stage on the 18^th September performing music from their respective projects that have been released this year. 

Sophie is a Drogheda based indie artist whose music drifts through static-filled soundscapes, finding beauty in glitches and ghosts of the digital age. Her songs hum with late-night introspection, soft guitars, flickering synths and layered vocals that feel like they’re playing from another room. Sophie will perform songs from her latest project ‘Stuck to the Screen’ as part of a two piece band.

KIDD is a Meath based rap artist with a sound heavily influenced by 90s hip-hop. KIDD’s music can be describe as high energy hip-hop that matches sharp lyricism and intricate wordplay with classic hip-hop foundations making him one of the most compelling artists on the scene today. He will be performing songs from his two releases ‘Kiddology’ & ‘College Heights’

Téga is a multi-genre producer, songwriter and musician from Drogheda known for unorthodox production and engaging performances. He effortlessly shifts between singing and rapping, often within the same track, never seating neatly within the one genre. He will be joined on stage by a four piece band to perform songs from his debut EP ‘REDEYE!’
