Eire 32 by XNTHONY LTD


'Eire 32' is a pop songwriting camp open to all, where you will craft a tapestry of pop music envisioning a 'New Ireland' crafting a song with your neighbours and community for your county.

Join award winning writer and performer Xnthony and his team of pop song producers for a week-long event in Louth, Donegal, and Wicklow where we invite you and your neighbours to craft pop songs reflecting local dreams, dramas, concerns, and phenomenons.

‘Eire 32’ is about you, we, us. This is about our personal and shared histories. This is about celebrating the sheer nuttiness of life through the totally relatable, totally accessible medium of pop music. Let’s explore possible futures together.

Maybe you’ll write a pop song about the price of cabbage. Maybe you’ll write about your fears, aspirations and why you can never remember your Amazon password. Sounds like a banger to us! Maybe you’ve got a fiddle that needs playing, a guitar that needs strumming. Bring it! Maybe you’ve got a melody you just can’t get out of your head. Bring that too! Either way, it’s up to you and your community. The power of pop lies in your hands.

 If writing applications isn't your thing, we welcome you to email the Xnthony team (on lisanally37@gmail.com) with a voice recording or short description explaining why you want to take part.

Participation is free. Each event will be facilitated to support your needs as a budding song writer. We will spend time finding a story and lyrics together and by the end of the week, we will have a song (or two).

‘Eire 32’ aims to grow nationwide across 8 years, with the goal of presenting an ambitious, theatrical presentation of 32 songs you create in 2032. Yep, you heard us: 2032.

Week commencing June 24th

Strictly for 18+
