All about the beautiful acoustic guitar groove” **** Daily Star

Alternative electronic sensation Milky Chance announce new single Down By The River’ will be released 5th December through Ignition Records.

After performing to huge crowds at Reading and Leeds Festival (and selling out their first headline show in London at Koko), the band head to Dublin for their debut Irish show at Vicar Street on 5th February, which has just sold out!

Milky Chance’s rise to music’s upper echelons has been unstoppable. Last year in their tiny self-built studio the duo cut their full-length debut ‘Sadnecessary’ and last summer they released it on their own Lichtdicht Records in Europe. Within a few weeks, lead single Stolen Dance’ had reached number one on Hype Machine. To date ‘Stolen Dance’ has received over 84 million Youtube views, and topped the Irish, German, Austrian, Australia, Canadian, Swiss, French and Belgium singles charts. Ireland has been a huge supporter of the band, where as well as having a #1 single, the song was a #1 radio hit and has achieved over gold sales status.

‘Stolen Dance’ continues to build worldwide – particularly in America, where it is currently #1 on the US Alternative radio chart and # 1 on the AAA radio chart.

Milky Chance have won a European Border Breakers Award (EBBA) and are also nominated for the public choice award, you can vote for them here and be in with a chance to win 2 tickets to the EBBA’s and Eurosonic Festival – http://www.rte.ie/2fm/eurosonic/. The EBBAs are about breaking down borders and recognising emerging European rock, pop and dance artists who achieved success in other countries than their own.

New single Down By The River’ will knock you over at first. But when you gather yourself, get back on your feet and listen again, you’ll want to hit the play button a second time. The video for the single has already had over 7.7million views on Youtube and the FlicFlac remix has had over 26 millions views on Youtube.

Live Date: Vicar Street, Dublin on 5th February 2015 – SOLD OUT!
