Confidence Man review: Five-star fun from Aussie foursome at Olympia, Dublin 

Confidence Man have impressed at various Irish festivals, but their Olympia gig saw them bring their live show to another level

Confidence Man didn’t stand a chance at Electric Picnic 2023, their early-evening Sunday set clashing with the unstoppable force of the resurgent Wolfe Tones. The following year they played a Friday-night set at All Together Now. Granted it was the third stage but it felt like the buzziest set of the weekend. Perhaps it was their Glastonbury set earlier in summer 2024 that changed things for the Australian four-piece but suddenly the secret seemed to have got out. The ultimate festival band, they make you want to go on the tear.
