TGBB Festival 2026 : Jour 3

For its third edition, They’re Gonna Be Big is more likely than ever to live up to its name with the cream of global indie and alternative music.

Thursday 29 October 2026 (7 PM - 12 AM) Peer Pleasure (Post-Punk - Wexford, IRL) Peer Pleasure, who have played at New Colossus and Irish Music Week, transform chaos into a cocktail of noise, blues, garage, and punk, all carried by an absurd sense of humour.

Born from a lockdown project that evolved into a dysfunctional family, the Irish band blends biting cynicism, frustrations, and sharp critiques.

FFO: Viagra Boys, Deadletter & Opus Kink Mouth Ulcers (Goth/Post-Punk - London, UK) Post-punk with tribal percussion and cavernous baritone vocals is what Mouth Ulcers, signed to LAB Records, offers.

The London quartet, who have played at Grauzone Festival and Left Of The Dial, draws on the legacy of The Cure and Bauhaus to craft music that is dark, physical, and captivating.

FFO: She Past Away, Rendez-Vous & Soviet Soviet lttl mort (Indus/Synthwave - London, UK) With electronic euphoria, the British project lttl mort oscillates between mechanical precision and emotional overflow.

This industrial/synthwave music is as danceable as it is unsettling, capturing the intoxication of the night as much as the emptiness of the morning after.

FFO: Nine Inch Nails, Health & Twin Tribes Accessory (Indie Pop - Chicago, USA) Behind the experimental pop project Accessory is Jason Balla (member of Dehd), who explores communication breakdowns, desire, and contemporary uncertainties, all balanced between softness and tension.

FFO: Alex G, Dehd & Mitski Insider Trading (Art Rock - Edinburgh, UK) Insider Trading, the Edinburgh quartet who headlined Sneaky Pete's, captivates with its post-rock, post-punk sound and Midwest emo and slowcore influences.

FFO: Maruja, Model/Actriz & Geese CABL (Indie Rock - Dublin, IRL) CABL blurs the lines between shoegaze, emo, and indie rock.

The band, who have supported Pillow Queen, Ulrika Spacek, and Robocobra Quartet, transforms narratives of addiction, family fragilities, and mental health into tracks that are as abrasive as they are touching. F
