Foinse
(fwin-sha) noun — (Irish) for “Source”; the point of origin, the beginning of flow.
“Blending indie-soul with groovy R&B, the Dublin-based group stole the night, finding a modern sound within 60’s inspired funk…
The band’s presence lit up the stage, each of them invested and connected to the music, having fun as they played with one another.”
— Jillian Irendale, Hot Press Live Review
Foinse are a six-piece soul band based in Dublin, Ireland. Formed in 2021, the group is driven by a deep respect for the music itself — prioritising sound, groove, and authenticity above all else.
They have performed across Dublin City at venues including The Grand Social, Workman’s Club, Whelan’s and sold out their debut single launch show at BelloBar in 2023.
Foinse will release their self-titled EP in Spring 2026.
