Description
Telefis ( television) present a hAon (One) ..syncopated synth-driven energy with a hint of Talking Heads but otherwise more in Hot Chip meets Metronomy territory. Fresh, funky and laced with a dark humour Neil March, Exile FM Following the acclaim of Cathal Coughlans long-awaited solo album Song of Co- Aklan in March 2021, Dimple Discs is proud to present the debut album by Telefis, the labels most ambitious album to date, and one that features two of Irelands most beloved figures in popular music.
Part celebration, part satire, Telefis (pronounced Tele-feesh, the Gaelic word for Television) is an exploration of Irish nostalgia and modern global hierarchies, strange characters and caricatures springing from Coughlans fertile imagination, while Jacknife Lee creates irresistible electro-funk backdrops full of melodic, squelchy synths and thunderous basslines.
A unique electronic pop collaboration between two Irish iconoclasts acclaimed producer Garret Jacknife Lee (U2, REM, Two Door Cinema Club) and singer-lyricist Cathal Coughlan (Microdisney, The Fatima Mansions)
Album preceded by three singles Mister Imperator, Falun Gong Dancer (featuring remix and dub with Jah Wobble) and We Need, all of which will be promoted to press, radio and clubs prior to album release
