The Bundoran Ocean Fest in Donegal is not just one of the country’s leading surfing events; it’s rapidly becoming a major musical fixture too.

It’s all very free-spirited, some might even say immoral. Certainly relations within The Immediate are unconventional: band members frequently change places, instruments are swapped and vocal duties rotated. There’s a playful grope with U2 here, a quick fumble with Talking Heads there and a covert, climactic Krautrock fondle at the end.

The stand-out in their awesome live set, ‘Stop and Remember’ is an agitated and boisterous call-to-arms that shifts styles and tone more often than the band swap instruments.

It’s hard to tell if the “handle with care” sticker on The Immediate’s keyboard is directed at the roadies or at the gaggle of groupies who hover close to the stage, eying up the four members of this latest bright young thing.

Yet another Dublin act tipped for great things in the UK. The Immediate sound like a hybrid of The Strokes and Cast. That’s not to say that they bear any musical comparison to John Power’s terrible Britpop outfit.
