Bleech 9:3 have released their debut single ‘Ceiling’. The Irish four-piece, who recently supported Keo on tour, are set to join Shame for their upcoming Ireland dates.
The band is fronted by Barry Quinlan on vocals and guitar, and Sam Duffy on guitar. The two musicians met at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, where Sam became Barry’s sponsor.
Speaking about the single, the band share: “The story behind ‘Ceiling’ is a sad one. I realised while writing the lyrics that it was about my friend Ryan who I met at a recovery meeting in Dublin. He passed away before he really got the chance to get better.
“It’s not something I’ve ever purposefully sat down to write about, it’s all those types of things which try to make contact with me through the writing. It’s like it’s trying to manifest itself to be released or something. Some things you hold on to for a long time before they finally find their way out.”
