Distractors

About Me

Distractors inception began as far back as late 2006. Their debut single 'Last Stand' followed in early 2007 garnering them many admirers in their hometown and numerous playlists on Irelands airwaves. The following year saw an invitation to SXSW as well as a second single 'Conversation Killer' which was re-released this year alongside three other songs as 'Manly with a Stanley EP'. In the last year alone they have toured with The Charlatans and Inner City Pirates as well as recording radio sessions for RTE and getting playlisted on XFM. They are currently in pre-production for their debut album which is set for release Autumn 2009.
