What the press are talking about...
The band was tight, professional, easy to deal with and above all one of the most original sounding bands I have heard in a decade!
A Dublin Ireland band that writes and plays songs with influences as if U2 where a brand new Band in 2008. Very melodic rock songs that everyone can appreciate and did. The crowd was totally into this Irish Band and new fans were captivated by Botham's very expressive delivery and the bands high quality musicianship!
I am looking forward to following Reliefs career and feel that they are on the brink of being the next band that re-writes rock and roll history!

Bio
Relief, freshly formed in 2009, have already made MAJOR steps in the music world. Being from Dublin Ireland, the band won 'Best Unsigned Band 2009' in Ireland. They went on 2 months later to showcase at SXSW ' 09 Austin Texas and put themselves on the map. They also supported Bret Micheals and Godsmack in Rhode Island at the Dunkin Donuts Arena.
Relief then went on to play CMJ '09 selected by Universal and Platform One and this caught the attention of Gavin Rossdale (BUSH). Two weeks later, the band supported Gavin Rossdale at The House of Blues in Chicago and fascinated crowds, which broke them into the US music scene.
Relief were selected as '' Top 10 Bands to watch in 2010'' by College Life Nation Magazine USA.

6. Relief - This 3 piece rock band from Dublin shows us that U2 is not the only musical option from the Emerald Isle. Booming guitars and thunderous drums usher in the next generation of arena rock.
