Inhaler

Inhaler is an Irish band formed in Dublin in 2012 around Eli Hewson, Josh Jenkinson, Robert Keating and Ryan McMahon. Their sound blends pop rock, indie and new wave touches, driven by bright guitar lines and a distinctly britpop melancholy. After several notable singles, the quartet came into its own with the debut album It Won’t Always Be Like This (2021), which reached number one on the UK and Irish charts, and cemented its international presence with Cuts & Bruises (2023), a key record in which the band refines its songwriting—broader and more introspective. With anthemic choruses, influences ranging from U2 to The Killers, and an energy built for large stages, Inhaler has established itself as one of the most followed contemporary indie rock bands of its generation.
