Songwriter and producer Gemma Dunleavy may have captured your attention through her previous collaborations with Murlo and Swing Ting but the North Inner City Dubliner has been busy making a name for herself with her stunning debut single 'Better 4 U' and a self directed video released on 4AD imprint B4. Taking influence from traditional story telling, Dunleavy has developed her sound by experimenting with instruments like the harp and flute and amalgamated this with her love for pop and club music. Despite just releasing her debut, Dunleavy has been working on a number of projects over the last few years and is a frequent collaborator with UK duo Swing Ting, Murlo and DJ Sharda. You can also find her vocals and songwriting on former Cocteau Twins member - Simon Raymond's new ‘Lost Horizons’ project. 2019 has seen her join Club Comfort's co-founder Baliboc for one off improvised sets drawing on sounds of the hardcore continuum and pirate radio stations of DJ/MC interaction. This energy trickles into her solo live shows where Baliboc accompanies her as a DJ. Set to release her debut EP 'Up De Flats' in June 2020, Gemma explores her community in Dublin's Sheriff Street, "each song is from a different perspective of a stereotype I grew up around" Gemma explains. “They each represent something I’ve experienced, someone I’ve been, someone I am or someone I’ve lost. It explores cyclical patterns of behaviour, hardships and grief, but most importantly the sense of community".
