Press Release Near Records release Near Musical Express
We at NearFM have been helping to promote and give a platform to Dublin based musicians and bands since our creation in 1995. Throughout our time, We have been very pleasantly surprised by the wealth of talent that exists within the local music scene in both Dublin and beyond. It seems fitting so, that we create Near Records, a label with a community ethos, that pushes to help Dublin based artists bring their music to a larger audience.
