AMBLE’s Reverie spends a full year in the top 10 while OLIVIA RODRIGO tops the Singles Chart with the cure!

Amble headline St. Anne’s Park

Tonight Amble headline St. Anne’s Park, Clontarf to a sold-out crowd of 20,000, marking one year since their debut album Reverie entered the Irish Charts! The album has remained in the Irish Top 10 since its release, a remarkable achievement for a domestic act. Released on 23 May 2025 via Atlantic Records, Reverie went straight to #1 and held the position for three weeks, becoming the country’s most-streamed Irish album of the year and the biggest Irish debut album since Dermot Kennedy’s Without Fear in 2019. The album would return to the top spot for another week later in the summer.

Amble formed in 2022, with the original aim of playing cover songs in pubs to obtain free pints. Robbie Cunningham (vocals/guitar), Ross McNerney (mandolin/bouzouki), and Oisín McCaffrey (vocals/guitar) quit their day jobs as school teachers and a data scientist and began building a following through singles Mariner Boy, Mary’s Pub, and Lonely Island, signing to Warner Records in 2024. By the end of 2025 they were selling out three nights at Dublin’s 3Arena, playing to over 40,000 fans. In March this year, the band took home Irish Song of the Year for Schoolyard Days and Breakthrough Artist of the Year at the RTÉ Choice Music Prize.

Tonight is something of a homecoming, with the band having spent much of the past month on the road in Europe supporting Dermot Kennedy, with UK dates still to come. Their North American tour kicks off on 12 June with a slot at Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival. The two acts will share the stage again at the Aviva Stadium on 11 and 12 July before returning to the US for a string of shows, including dates with Ed Sheeran on his North American stadium tour, along with their own international tour across the UK, US, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia.
