The Murder Capital are a five-piece Dublin-based band made up of James McGovern, Morgan Wilson, Damien Tuit, Matt Wilson and Cathal Roper.

2018 was a breakthrough year for the band, with their own explosive live shows and gigs with Slaves, Shame and Fontaines DC. They have also been included in The Guardian’s Ones to Watch 2019 and included in NME’s 100 Essential New Artists for 2019.

“Immediately The Murder Capital emit a passion that will turn heads, but importantly they are a voice with something to shout about, and that could truly cement them as something to cherish.” – So Young

“There is a story that emanates through The Murder Capital’s biting voice. It’s caustic punk with widescreen ambition; music that sounds and feels like where it came from.” – Loud & Quiet

“The Murder Capital’s bolshy, violent sounding post-punk would make a fitting soundtrack to a city ten times more dangerous than the Irish capital.” – NME
