A triple bill of Asian-Irish music artists is announced for Dublin this month

Ex Oh Promotions present a triple bill of Asian-Irish artists on November 28th at Workman’s Cellar.

Kendinho, boringbrxwneyes, and Andromeda I are playing live as part of the Áise agus Éire music collective, which aims to bring Asian-Irish musical talent to the forefront in Ireland.

After noticing a frustrating lack of Asian representation in the Irish music scene, Áise agus Éire was launched in 2023 with their debut showcase at the Workman’s Club. The group covers a wide variety of genres from rap, chillwave R&B, rock, and electronic music. As the collective turns a year old, they are looking forward to expanding, experimenting and collaborating more in 2025.

Tickets from Eventbrite. Early Birds are €7 plus fees.

Kendino
Who is Kendino? you may ask, the answer may surprise you. Born and raised in the Philippines, Jude Manzano (a.k.a. Kendino) is an artist, singer, songwriter, producer, musician, and a part-time goofy. What he brings to the table is a mesmerizing, smooth LoFi vibe with his songs that can make you either fall in love, or break your heart, or both. He bases his music around his lustful experiences, and whatever makes him at peace.

Boringbrxwneyes
Clean, chilled-out and candid, Boringbrxwneyes is a captivating singer-songwriter based in Dublin. Through a soulful blend of mellow vocals, laid-back beats and introspective lyrics, she offers a glimpse into her inner world and invites you to embrace your own fears, desires and dreams. Combining bedroom pop, R&B and chillwave, Boringbrxwneyes has created an honest, profound and ultimately uplifting soundtrack of the human spirit.

Andromeda I
ANDROMEDA I (read as ANDROMEDA THE FIRST) is a project led by Filipino/Italian artist John Ocasion. Previously known as “Zeno” they write, produce and perform their own songs.
