Following three sold-out shows last year, Irish rock icons The Stunning return to 3Olympia Theatre on Friday 20th November 2026. Due to demand, they have now added a second show on Thursday 26th November 2026. Ticketspriced from €39 including booking fee & €2 restoration levy on sale now with  Ticketmaster Ireland The Stunning are experiencing a powerful resurgence thanks to the viral rediscovery of their classic hit ‘Brewing Up a Storm’ , mainly due to its inclusion in the Netflix drama series House of Guinness. To add to that, the song was recently voted Number 7 in the Best 100 Irish Songs Ever by listeners to Today FM. The buzz around the band has led to them signing with international booking agents ROAM Artists. And now the song will be used again in a major television series ‘The Westies’ an upcoming  MGM+ television series set in New York in the 1980s by the same people who made ‘Narcos’.  Formed in Galway in 1987 by brothers Steve and Joe Wall, The Stunning became one of Ireland’s most acclaimed and best-loved bands. From the beginning they carved out a distinctive sound — a vibrant mix of rock’n’roll energy, twangy guitars and touches of alt-country-soul-rock — that resonated with audiences across the country. Their commitment to great songwriting and electrifying live performances quickly set them apart. Their debut album, Paradise in the Picturehouse  (1990), reached No. 1 in the charts at and stayed there for five weeks, followed by a second No. 1 album, Once Around the World  (1992). Songs such as Everything That Rises, Romeo’s on Fire, Heads Are Gonna Roll, Half Past Two and the enduring anthem  Brewing Up a Storm  remain staples of Irish music culture. After re-forming in 2003, the band resumed touring to packed venues, culminating in a landmark 30,000-capacity homecoming show in Galway’s city’s docks in 2012. Now, in 2026, The Stunning are entering one of the most dynamic periods of their career. Global Breakthrough Via Netflix A new wave of international recognition arrived in 2025 when Brewing Up a Storm  featured prominently in the hit Netflix series House of Guinness . Already regarded by many as an alternative Irish anthem — often used at Irish international rugby and football games — the song exploded into global consciousness. Thirty-six years after its release, it surged to No. 5 on the Shazam UK Viral Chart and reached No. 15 in its UK Top 200 as listeners around the world discovered the band for the first time. Single: “Stand Up in This Wicked World” Marking their first new release in eight years, the band’s single Stand Up in This Wicked World  showcases The Stunning at their most urgent and emotive. Its powerful video has made waves online, shared by Paloma Faith and  Game of Thrones star Liam Cunningham,  reaching over one million combined followers.  Other projects – movies and TV  The various band members are involved in many other projects. Front man Steve Wall is also evolving into a successful film and television actor with roles in the new HBO Drama series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms; Dune: Part Two; The English (with Emily Blunt - BBC); Vikings (MGM)  and many more.  With new music, renewed international attention and a live reputation that remains unmatched, The Stunning continue to prove that great songs and great bands never fade — they only grow louder.
