Delorentos have become unplugged and are set for an Irish acoustic tour

DELORENTOS vocalist Rónán Yourell has complicated feelings about the indie rock quartet’s forthcoming Irish acoustic tour. On the one hand, the unplugged format will give the band latitude to explore the nuanced side of their music — allowing their often smart and heartfelt lyrics bask in the spotlight. On the other, he’ll miss plugging in and rocking out.

“No matter how big the show I’m always buzzing with adrenaline beforehand — whether it’s a one song TV appearance or 10,000 people at a festival,” says Yourell. “With the electric gigs, there’s so much physicality, the excitement has a natural outlet. Acoustic shows are more slow-burn — though you never know, I might smash up my guitar.”
