The Fynches return to London to THE IVY HOUSE NUNHEAD as part of their debut Album tour!
The Fynches are an Irish folk-rock band that evoke the golden age of hard-hitting melodicism. They balance early-70s swagger with an elevated folk sensibility, showcasing a love for rich vocal harmonies, musing lyricism, and catchy choruses. The brainchild of Ferdia Walsh-Peelo (lead vocals and guitar) and Ois?n Walsh-Peelo (vocals and keys ? to same but two), The Fynches also comprise Camryn Teehan (drums), Fionn O?Neill (bass), and Julia-Maria (cello). Vocal melodies and soulful keys meet vibrant guitar lines, soaring strings, and a powerful rhythm section. Brothers Ferdia and Ois?n were raised in a musical family in County Wicklow.
Nurturing a songwriting bond marked by interlocking harmonies, the two have amped up their creative experimentation over the past decade: writing and arranging for the sheer joy of making music. Now with the live band in place, their songcraft has been able to shift from the studio to the blaze of the stage. The Fynches are a band that come into their own under the lights, earning them a reputation as an electrifying live act. The Fynches spent much of 2024 hunkered down in the studio together refining tracks. Now, these musical blueprints have developed into a full statement album, set for release on 7th October 2025. This self-titled record, The Fynches, will be accompanied by an extensive, full-band tour of Ireland with UK and European dates in 2026. With brooding ballads, raucous crowd pleasers, and even a requiem interlude, the band?s d?but is marked by dynamism, playfulness, and musical virtuosity.
Uncommonly, brothers Ferdia and Ois?n sometimes exchange lead vocal duties across songs ? at times even verses ? balancing their timbres in synergy. Composer and arranger Ois?n honed his skills touring and recording with bands such as Villagers, Flyte, Hudson Taylor, and Bombay Bicycle Club. A natural frontman, Ferdia found fame on the silver screen starring in Sing Street, as well as roles in the multi-Oscar-winning film CODA, Pistol (Danny Boyle), and Four Letters of Love (starring Pierce Brosnan and Helena Bonham-Carter). The Fynches? previous single releases have been received to critical acclaim, with radio play (RT? Radio 1) and lively TV performances (RT? One?s ?The Late, Late Show, Fanning At Whelans), as well as spirited appearances at some of Ireland?s most iconic venues. In 2023, they completed their first Irish tour, swiftly followed by an unforgettable show with ?The Coronas? at King John?s Castle in Limerick. By self-titling the release of The Fynches the band are stamping the mark of their identity. With the prolific work ethic of Ferdia and Ois?n, and a hoard of material already in wait, this album fires the starting gun for what is to come from The Fynches.
