Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - a podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 71, it’s the turn of Dan Hoff, vocalist in rowdy Irish punk outfit Gurriers!
Having formed during the pandemic, Gurriers first came to my attention at 2000 Trees Festival in 2023, putting on a blistering, no prisoners performance that suggested they would be ones to watch in future.
Cut to September 2026 and off the back of massive shows with the likes of Turnstile and Kneecap, the much anticipated second album from Gurriers, ‘Nobody's Coming To Save You’, arrives this month via Play It Again Sam.
A week ahead of its release, I managed to catch up with Dan during a brief break whilst the band were on tour in America. He did sound a bit underwater at times, but such is the case when you’re conversing with someone bang in the middle of nowheresville, USA!
We spoke of the new record, as well as trying to be an athlete on tour, performing on ‘Later… with Jools Holland’, Irish musicians and comparisons to The Fall.
