Overhead, The Albatross are a six piece instrumental outfit from Dublin.Known for their intricate yet powerful melodies and energetic stage presence, their sound combines a multitude of instruments which go beyond the normal boundaries of “post-rock” and delve into the realm of the cinematic. Layered strings, electronics and spacious synths combined with soaring guitars and powerful drums are used to create their unique sound. O,TA’s music journeys from delicate intimacy to epic triumphancy, touching everything in between. A much awaited debut album 'Learning To Growl' was released earlier this year with the group translating their explosive live sound into an album which sounds assured and dynamic throughout.
