'Late Night Load Out' is the debut LP from Dublin five piece band Papa Romeo. The release is a collection of work which catalogs their first two years of rehearsing and gigging together around Ireland, a process which has forged their sound. The tracks journey through sound palettes which variously touch on dreamy spaced out indie rock, moments of ambient contemporary jazz, and rougher post-punk influenced sounds.The 'Late Night Load Out', became the term to describe loading gear out of venues late at night after a show, which is a moment to both dread and cherish, the (sometimes) hard work which follows elation. Now primarily based in London, Papa Romeo's music has connected with London based DJs and broadcasters. Their debut single 'Yellow Magic Orchestra' was supported by Flo on NTS, as well as Avalon Emerson, and appeared as the A1 on a vinyl compilation from All City Records Dublin. Singles from 'Late Night Load Out' have also gained early support on BBC 6 Music and from Ross Allen on NTS. In the meantime the band have been busy on the Irish circuit with appearances at Cork Jazz Festival, Other Voices, All Together Now and Another Love Story, as well as repeat sold out shows at Dublin's Sugar Club. They have built a reputation as a versatile band that can bring the energy to a packed room, and were named an Artist to Watch for 2024 by Hot Press Magazine.Tracklisting:A1. World of PaintA2.
