Under The Radar; Artists to watch 2024 featuring WineMom

As 2024 unfolds, it's the perfect time to highlight the hidden gems quietly making waves in the Irish music scene. This month, Under the Radar is proud to feature WineMom, an Irish indie rock band whose nostalgic yet fresh sound is turning heads. If you're looking for an artist that blends modern indie rock with the timeless essence of classic rock, WineMom is the band you'll want to keep on your radar.

Who Are WineMom?

Hailing from Dublin, WineMom consists of four members: Rosana on vocals, Matthew on guitar, Millie on bass, and Reese on drums. Since forming, the band has been generating buzz for their genre-crossing style and energetic live performances. Their December 2023 debut single, Blood Moon, exemplifies this, featuring a fusion of 70s-style rock guitars, a touch of country twang, and smooth indie-rock melodies. Their ability to craft songs that evoke both nostalgia and a modern edge has become their defining sound.

Why WineMom Stands Out

What sets WineMom apart is their ability to blend classic influences with a contemporary indie approach, creating music that is at once familiar and innovative. "Blood Moon" garnered attention for its dreamy mix of psychedelic rock, folk elements, and soft rock, drawing listeners in with its heartfelt storytelling and haunting vocals by Rosana. The track feels like stepping back into the golden era of rock while remaining entirely relevant to today's indie scene.

Beyond the studio, WineMom's live performances have become a highlight in Dublin’s indie circuit. The band’s dynamic stage presence, from Rosana's soulful, smoky voice to Matthew's intricate guitar work, and the tight, funky rhythm section of Millie and Reese, ensures an immersive experience that leaves audiences wanting more.

What’s Next for WineMom?

With growing acclaim in Dublin and beyond, 2024 is shaping up to be a breakout year for WineMom. The band is currently working on their first EP, expected to drop later this year. If their previous releases are any indication, this project promises to solidify their place in the indie music world. Their ability to weave together diverse influences—rock, pop, and soul—while telling deeply personal stories ensures that WineMom’s music resonates on multiple levels.

Why You Should Watch WineMom

WineMom offers more than just catchy indie rock tunes. Their music combines a timeless sound with a forward-thinking approach, creating songs that both hit the heart and get stuck in your head. Their talent for blending introspective lyrics with infectious melodies makes them one of the most exciting bands to emerge in 2024. Whether you're streaming their singles or catching a live performance in Dublin, WineMom is a band on the rise.

Don’t miss out on their upcoming EP, and be sure to catch them live if you get the chance—this is a band destined for great things.

That concludes this month’s Under the Radar feature. Make sure to follow WineMom on Spotify and social media for updates on their latest releases and upcoming gigs. Stay tuned for next month’s spotlight on another hidden gem in the indie music scene!
