Shenanygans are a Swiss-Irish indie rock band based in Solothurn, Switzerland, blending a unique mix of influences into their energetic live-shows.
They released their debut album "On Monte Verita" in early 2024, capturing widespread acclaim and propelling them on a tour across Switzerland, with additional stops in the UK and Ireland. Their breakout single "I Believe In You" received heavy rotation on Swiss radio and was named "Single of the month“ in July by Swiss Radio und Fernsehen (SRF3). Other tracks like "Count on Me" and "All the Trippin’ Around" resonated internationally, each accumulating over 100,000 streams on Spotify. In autumn 2024, Shenanygans extended their reach with a 12-show tour in Japan, where they further polished and showcased their dynamic sound.
In early 2025 Shenanygans released a new EP called "3, 2, 1… Action", which includes hit single “Here Is a Place”. To promote their EP Shenanygans played 15 concerts in Europe, including gigs in the UK, France, Germany, Italy as well as renowned club Atlantis in Basel, Switzerland. In Summer 2025 Shenanygans played venues such as Super Bock Stage at the Montreux Jazz Festival or HOEG SummerCity Festival in Bremen, Germany. In autumn they supported Polish band Happysad on their 25th anniversary tour through Poland.
In June 2026 Shenanygans released their psychedelic and more modern sounding second album "Lullabies and Lucid Dreams", followed by concerts such as at Wandelbarfestival Olten or Lakelive Biel. Their first single "Missed The Warning" was promoted by radio stations such as SRF 3 and Couleur 3.
Drawing inspiration from vocal harmonies and garage rock of the '60s and '70s, New Wave and Britpop of the '80s and '90s, and contemporary artists like Djo and Rex Orange County, Shenanygans deliver a sometimes nostalgic, other times modern indie rock experience, offering fans a mix of lyrical depth and musical flow.
