"Avenue 68 have to be your favourite new band coming out of Ireland" - Beta Da Silva, 2FM

"Each component of the band work in clear harmony, complimented best by their singer's vocal prowess" - Hot Press Magazine

The band has had an incredible year since their debut last November, grabbing the attention of the likes of Hot Press Magazine and RTÉ 2FM, while earning spots on several Spotify playlists. They have landed major festival bookings too — including Aiken’s Forbidden Fruit and All Together Now festivals, performing on Guinness’ Lovely Days stage, and not one but two sets at Electric Picnic.

Following standout performances at the Cork Jazz Festival and an opening slot for Joy Crookes on the first night of her tour in the Olympia Theatre, it’s clear this band is one to watch. For fans of R&B, jazz, and funk, you’ll want to keep Avenue 68 on your radar.

Not That Kinda Girl
(because she's not.)

out now
released 18 July 2025

"Not That Kinda Girl" captures the quiet strength of someone choosing integrity over retaliation. Lead singer, Lauren describes this tune as "a powerful anthem of grace and class" that explores her own experience of times where she has chosen dignity over revenge in the face of betrayal. Described by the band as a "quiet storm", the chorus blends the emotional depth and rich melodies of classic soul with a modern edge. It’s about dignity, self-worth, and choosing silence over scandal.
