DUBLIN

DATES

OVERVIEW Currently based in Dublin, indie-alternative outfit walkperson play music somewhere between Deus, PJ Harvey and BellX1 with occasional leanings towards alt-country acts like Ryan Adams, The Shins and Richmond Fontaine. Walkperson's sound combines innovative song structure and noise with clever melody and in this regard comparisons could be made to Sonic Youth or Placebo. The group's repertoire spans a broad emotional spectrum from low key introspective numbers to high energy songs dealing with restlessness, joy and the triumphant outsider. Present line up consists of Alex Bajgart (Bass, Vocals), Andrew Deacon (Guitar, Noise), Pearse McGloughlin (Vocals, Guitar) and James T. Yearn (Drums, Percussion). 2007 - Release of 'Desired Effect' E.P. [14 September]
