The Dying Seconds

The Dying Seconds began in 2007 as the recording project of David Cantan and Jack Quilligan. A critically acclaimed, eponymous, debut album under the belt they spent 2008-2009 earning their live spurs gigging around Ireland and the UK, including 5 shows in 2 years at Electric Picnic.

Over that time things evolved from a two-men-and-their-laptops situation into a bombastic six-piece with trumpets, strings, synths, singing, guitars of various sorts, and lots of drums! The result is a maelstrom of joyful melancholy. 2010 (and the early part of 2011) was largely spent in hiding, recording in the studio, and a factory, and a church.

Summer 2011, The Dying Seconds have a new album and are looking forward to spending some time playing some songs for lots of lovely friends (new and old) and would be delighted to see you along the way!
