The Neighbourhood

The Neighbourhood lands in Dublin on 17 May 2026 at 3Arena with their blend of alternative rock, dreamy pop and modern R&B. Formed in California in the early 2010s around Jesse Rutherford, with Zach Abels, Jeremy Freedman, Mikey Margott and Brandon Fried, the band broke through with Sweater Weather and a stark black-and-white visual identity that still frames their universe. Live, they draw across their catalogue: the moody hooks of I Love You., the widescreen sway of Wiped Out!, and the slick, chrome-kissed colors of Chip Chrome & The Mono-Tones. Songs like Afraid, Daddy Issues and Softcore balance melancholy and groove, lifted by Rutherford’s elastic vocals, vaporous guitars and a rhythm section that keeps things close to the skin. Their more experimental thread, (((((ultraSOUND))))), folds electronic textures into the set without washing out the guitars, keeping tension between shadow and light. A focused show built on tight writing and evolving production, true to their core while opening new angles.
