Our "10 Years Of Hot Box" celebrations continue as we welcome Dublin DIY scene favourites **Fizzy Orange**, bringing their distinctly Irish strain of jangly alt-rock and lo-fi power pop to the stage! **Fizzy Orange** (IE) are a six-piece alt rock band crafting a distinctly Irish strain of power pop that’s made them firm favourites within Dublin’s DIY scene. Kevin Keeley, Jack Martin, Cian Byrne and Rioghan Mc Carthy have been playing together since their school years, all sharing a love for analogue recording and the ‘brown sound’ of Ween, with Eoin Dillon and Maxime Arnold joining just before the release of their first EP In Mono (2024). Fizzy Orange’s sound is a jangly synthesis of lo-fi power pop and blues-leaning Irish rock traditions. FO have remained true to their humble beginnings, preferring to record at home to cassette or within close proximity of a pub, wherever that may be. Live, the band lean into a rougher garage rock energy, often playing long sets built around a large catalogue of unreleased songs. FO have headlined a number of sold-out dates across Ireland and the UK, and are now holed up in an old abbatoir turned studio on Dublin’s northside, recording their debut album, due in 2026.
