Irish Indie band The Coronas have released new album Thoughts & Observations and in its first week has captured the #1 slot on the Irish charts, marking their fourth time this has happened for them.
The trio, comprising frontman Danny O’Reilly, bass player Graham Knox and drummer Conor Egan, took the new recording directly to their fan base last week with a series of local shows and appearances in Dublin, Wexford, Kilkenny, Limerick, Galway and Cork.
Produced by Grammy award-winning, long-time collaborator, George Murphy (Mumford and Sons, The Specials, Ellie Goulding) at his Eastcote Studios in London, the record is the band’s 8th studio album.
Their latest single, “If You’re Going,” is accompanied by a John Broe-directed video that continues the cut-and-paste aesthetic of the album’s artwork.
The Coronas head back to the U.S. for shows at the Gramercy Theatre in New York City on November 13 and the Brighton Music Hall in Boston on November 14.
Then it’s back to Australia prior to their traditional holiday shows at Dublin’s Olympia Theatre—December 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16. Final shows of 2024 are at Ulster Hall in Belfast on December 19 and INEC Killarney on December 28.
