About Memorial:

Memorial is a project rooted in friendship and fueled by unflinching honesty. Ollie Spalding and Jack Watts were friends first and songwriting partners second, a quality that sets them apart. Their unique bond creates a special sense of human connection wrought through harmony and emboldened with experience.

Their self-titled debut album, sculpted over the pandemic and released on Real Kind Records, reflects their core values. “The emotion has to be right,” says Oliver. “When we record songs, we want to stay true to the emotion – as though those songs had just been written seconds before they were recorded.”

The success of their debut brought fresh experiences, including collaborations with Flyte, Talos, and Olafur Arnold, and supporting acts like Matthew and the Atlas, Christian Lee Hutson, and Anais Mitchell. Despite new challenges, Memorial has shown an extraordinary sense of character, driving themselves forward and taking true ownership of their artistry.

Don’t miss this chance to experience Memorial’s captivating performance live at the scenic Ballybranagan Beach. Secure your tickets now.
