I had a chorus banging around me for a month or so about my best mate Niamh dancing in her room.” That’s the start of any collaboration, right? We were both fans of each other’s stuff and planned to plan a day to make a tune. “Myself and Le Boom work with the same sound engineer, the mighty Sean Corcoran so we were introduced and pints were had. “I really enjoy writing with and for other artists now, takes me out of myself and I can enjoy songwriting for its craft and as a separate process to this madness in my chest”.Ī recent wonderful collaboration on ‘Dancing Bug’ with Le Boom is a great example of how opening up that creative process has been beneficial. In recent times, however, the Dundalk artist has opened herself up more for collaboration. “When writing and messing around with vocal melodies and lyrical metres at home, I have a clear vision of performing it on stage, that feeling inspires the arch, the melody and the performance style in turn for sure.” “I started writing about five years ago so I could perform the way I wanted to express myself the way I needed to, which has now developed into some sort of alter-ego Uma Thurman character that I’m uncontrollably embodying,” she says. Any visual concepts I had knocking around my chest went hand in hand with the songwriting process and vice versa.” Until recently, that package always came entirely together from the start of her process. Æ MAK has turned heads and gathered a strong following with her unique approach to pop music and her strong audio-visual presentation. I miss the sweaty mouldy dancing in District 8.” I feel most at home on the Workman’s stage, or the stage of The Grand Social. 300 – 400 capacity feels very real and touchable. For me and my buzz, it’s more enjoyable and connective as an artist to perform in these venues. If the Spirit Store closed down we would be orphaned. Scenes and subcultures are what bring that sparked energy, inspiration and divilment into life.” These acts may be too big in the coming years to catch them in such an intimate, personal setting where the real magic happens.
“It’s also exciting to have more established international indie acts perform in The Workman’s, The Grand Social, The Sound House… as part of their EU tours or festival runs. “They give a home and respected platform to new up and coming acts across all genres where they have the freedom to develop their craft, find their audience, their scene and the network of artists and bands that they will grow and build alongside professionally and creatively – their lifelong mates.” If we lose them we lose a massive part of our culture,” McCann states.
“Venues and creative spaces like the Workman’s will always be the heart of Ireland’s music scene. In recent times, the importance of spaces like Workman’s has been a key conversation in light of losses of creative and cultural spots to hotel and student accommodation developments and skyrocketing rent prices in Dublin.

She has won 12 Grammy Awards and has also received an Oscar and two Golden Globes for her acting and music.On August 10, Æ MAK will be playing We Are Workman’s as part of a series of shows celebrating the cultural presence of Workman’s Club in Dublin, brought to you by Roe & Co Whiskey. Regardless of her illness, Lady Gaga is one of the most successful artists in the world. She spoke with US talk show host Oprah Winfrey in 2020 about how the disease causes chronic pain throughout her body and leads to exhaustion: "Even sitting here with you today, I am in head-to-toe pain," said Gaga. Lady Gaga suffers from fibromyalgia, an increased sensitivity to pain, colloquially known as soft tissue rheumatism. German fans of the pop icon should be particularly pleased that the first concert is in Düsseldorf - during her last world tour in 2018, Lady Gaga had to cancel many European concerts due to illness, including all of her stops in Germany. Due to the pandemic, however, the concerts had to be postponed twice. Lady Gaga originally wanted to go on tour for the release of the album in 2020. It will be the live premiere of the songs from her latest album, "Chromatica."
She will perform in 14 cities around the world for the first time since January 2018. Lady Gaga will give her first concert on July 17 as an open-air concert in Düsseldorf, after which she will appear in Stockholm, Paris, London, Toronto, Washington, New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles, among others.
