The Mary Wallopers push forward on their third album Paddywhackery, a self-written set produced by James Skelly. Building on the confidence of their previous work, the Dundalk group tighten their sound into something more forceful and direct, without losing their unruly charm. Recorded over two weeks in Liverpool, the album captures the band at full tilt. There’s a sense of immediacy throughout, with performances that feel loose, loud and fully committed. Paddywhackery is a record that thrives on instinct and attitude, delivered with conviction and a refusal to take itself too seriously.
