Episode 46: Karla & Sam of SPRINTS

SPRINTS are a four-piece garage-noise band based out of Dublin, Ireland. They are made up of Karla Chubb on vocals, Sam McCann on bass, Colm O’Reilly on guitar and Jack Callan on drums.

The band is pretty new, having formed in late 2019. Just in time to get a few shows and songs out before the global pandemic hit. However, what is very interesting about these guys is that in that short time they gained quite a bit of notoriety, getting radio play on the UK’s BBC radio 6 and 1 and having write ups in publications such as NME and Hot Press Music.

Their music combines guitar-driven hooks, motoric rhythm and emotive lyrics to create a sound that is pretty unique drawing inspiration from the garage, grunge and punk genres.

They released their debut EP Manifesto in March of this year and are looking to sign with a label and get a full-length album out as soon as they can.

I caught up with vocalist, Karla and bassist, Sam via zoom to talk about the forming of the band, how they have been navigating being a new band during a pandemic and what is coming up next for them.

Here’s my chat with Karla and Sam of Sprints.
