Fresh off the back of taking over Irish radio with her latest single ‘Forfeit Control’ Pastiche has just joined the lineup for Alice Glass in the iconic Opium, Dublin on Tuesday 28th May 2024. This Smörgasbord presentation is the first of two dates which will be followed by Belfast on the 30th of May.

About Alice Glass
Alice Glass is one of the most recognizable and singular voices in the last decade of electronic pop, leaving an unmistakable mark on the genre with her versatile ability to go from an eerie lilt to an absolute roar. As one-half of Crystal Castles, she received critical acclaim internationally including NME’s John Peel Award For Innovation in Music in 2011 as well as receiving a Best New Album designation from Pitchfork. Glass has captivated audiences across the globe with her intense, in-your-face performance style, and she’s also been featured in fashion campaigns by Alexander McQueen among other notable designers. In October of 2014, Glass left Crystal Castles and eventually went public about the abusive treatment that she survived while in the band; following her debut solo single “Stillbirth” in 2015, Glass released a self-titled EP in 2017 and has kept a steady flow of single and remix releases since. She has toured extensively, built herself as a rising dj, and released her debut solo album, PREY//IV in early 2022.

About Pastiche
Ireland’s answer to Dua Lipa meets Caroline Polochek, Pastiche’s sound combines classic electronic dark pop with her majorly theatrical influences. Pastiche demands your attention with her lyrically and sonically singular tracks, full of sass and female Empowerment. 2023 was a banner year for Pastiche, who was featured as a Keychange artist and played the massive stages at The 3Olympia, Pride Dublin at Collins Barracks, Primavera Sound and Iceland Airwaves, as well as accumulating over 450,000 + Spotify plays, with hit single “Disco Junkie” featuring in editorial playlists such as New Music Friday and New Pop UK. Pastiche has already stormed out of the gates in 2024, with her newest release “Foreit Control” charting at number 3 in the breakers chart, the highest position of any independent artist.
Dublin-born Pastiche burst onto the Irish scene at the end of 2020, bringing her fresh pop sensibilities. Brazen, fiery and memorable, she is an artist to sit up and take notice of. With BBC’s Gemma Bradley noting that Pastiche has “a promising future ahead,” she has been hailed as “Ireland’s fastest rising pop star”(Hot Press). Pastiche sold out her 2021 debut headline show at Whelans in 72 hours, causing media to rave about her and the Irish Examiner to name her an "Irish act to watch out for”. She made her debut at Primavera Pro in 2022 and dazzled audiences at leading Irish music festivals Sea Sessions, Indiependence, SoFFt Nights andDublin’s Pride Festival.
