Info
Dead Calm is the alias where Irish musician Liam McCay leans into his slowcore instincts. Born in Galway and raised in Buncrana, County Donegal, he’s been active since 2022 under several monikers — Sign Crushes Motorist, Birth Day and Take Care — splitting his writing across projects without losing a shared taste for short, minimal, melancholic forms. As Dead Calm, he works with unhurried tempos, muted guitars and stripped-back lyrics, keeping the sound intimate and lo-fi.
This date at Saint Luke's & The Winged Ox, Glasgow, on 20 September 2026 highlights that approach with songs drawn from Accept (2023) and Keep Moving (2025). Dead Calm occupies its own space in McCay’s catalogue while staying aligned with the indie lineage that runs through his work. Live, arrangements stay lean and deliberate, letting small shifts in tone and texture set the pace, and giving the writing enough air to unfold without rush.
