Dead Manifest have played headline shows at Fibber Magees in Dublin, a main stage slot at The Works Festival, and have upcoming appearances at Beardfire Festival and The Workman’s Club.

Speaking about their new song, the band say. “Six Feet Dreaming felt like a turning point for us creatively. Lyrically, it’s about feeling stuck beneath the weight of your own thoughts and circumstances but still holding onto the belief that things can improve. We wanted the song to feel heavy emotionally while still having big hooks and a sense of release.”
