Kilkenny dance duo 49th & Main had a big rise of late, one of the most notable during the pandemic.

Patrick King and Ben O’Sullivan are creators of jazzy-house electronic with occasional singer-songwriter and pop vibes that quickly found an audience and have had a few sold out gigs to boot.

Today news reached that the band have signed a record deal with revered and respected UK label Ninja Tune, via manager Ceri Dixon.
