    The Star Department a new four-piece band from Dublin. Their debut EP has been mixed and mastered by legendary American producer Kramer (Low, Daniel Johnston, Will Oldham, Lou Reed) who was impressed enough with the bands demo to want to produce them in the future.

    Together less than a year the band have already played some prestigious gigs including The Ballroom Of Romance, IMRO Showcase Tour, 4play, Reservoir (Entertainment.ie) and King Kong Club guest appearances.

    The band have been described as having a "unique blend of sublime indie-pop and shimmering post-rock....a sonic cavalcade of densely packed melodies and flickering pieces of jangle, it's the euphoric way the ideas are thrown together that indicates this could be the start of something special" -Mp3hugger.blogspot.com

    "This Serena Maneesh-via-Ride style shoegazing is magisterial...powerful and haunting 8/10" -Channel 4 EP review

    "Embers shines with a masterful melody...we have something very interesting to look forward to on future releases" -Hotpress
