Slightly Dishevelled is a 5-piece noise ensemble, living scattered
across Ireland. Their music is a combination of influences, ranging
from 70s punk to psychedelia, from improvisation to noise music.
Their eclectic artistic interests are somewhat indiscernible in this
absurdist blend of sound.
After playing many gigs around Ireland, the songs became morphed and mangled, and the group
were insistent on capturing the abstraction in their own “dishevelled" way. Their non-
compromising attitude led them to an Achill Island studio in 2023 and resulted in their debut
album: "Dirty Dishes and the West Wing"(Official Release- 21st February).
Recent endeavours led the group to act and star in short film “Gan Ainm(35mm)” by Dublin artist
Roisin Ni Mhaoldomhnaigh which is being shown in private screenings around Dublin until 2025.
In 2023 they scored “Molasses pt. ii”, a film piece by Cork artist Saoirse McGarry. The completely
improvised piece was recorded in one 20-minute take in the Achill Island Studio. The film piece
was nominated for the RDS visual arts prize and could be experienced in an exhibition in IMMA in
March ’24.
