The Walls are one of Ireland’s most respected band. The band were formed by brothers Steve and Joe Wall after their multi-platinum band “The Stunning” spilt up. March 2006 saw the band tour the United States including performing to packed venues in New York, LA and the SXSW Music Festival in Austin Texas.
Over the following two years the band played in France, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria and undertook their first ever trip to Australia where Crowded House offered them lucrative support slots on their massive re-union gigs in Sydney and Melbourne in 2007. The Walls have also performed with other major artists including Bob Dylan and Red Hot Chilli Peppers.
The band then took some time out as some babies had arrived in The Walls camp. During this time they built their own recording studio in Dublin. 2007 saw them retreat back to the studio to start recording album number Three. Steve and Joe took a break from recording to work on a revolutionary new two-man audio-visual show that they devised. It took two years to perfect and took people by surprise when they performed a set of new songs at the SXSW Music Festival in Austin, Texas in March of that year.
June 2010 the lads released a double sided single “Carrying the Fire” / “Phantom Power”, with both singles receiving significant airplay. Summer 2011 brought the release of a Four Track EP “Bird in a Cage”.
In June 2010 they released a double A-sided single “Carrying the Fire” and “Phantom Power”, with both sides doing well on Irish Radio. A four-track EP “Bird in a Cage” was released in summer 2011, containing two tracks from the album and two previously unreleased songs. Bird in a Cage received heavy rotation on radio stations in the north and south of Ireland.
March 2012, The Walls released their eagerly awaited third album “Stop The Lights”.
