Gather The Lost


GATHER THE LOST
THE BRAND NEW SINGLE ‘THIS TIME’
FROM THE ALBUM ‘SILVER LINING’

BOTH OUT 17/4/26

Gather The Lost are a Dublin-based alternative rock band that officially launched onto the music scene in March 2022. A project that was originally started early in 2020 by Dublin born front-woman Carolyn Dunne but was quickly interrupted by the hit of the Covid19 pandemic.

Joining Carolyn is Brazilian guitarist Alan Franklin; Dundalk-born bassist Brian Dunne and Dublin drummer Ronan Sherlock. Each band member brings forward years of experience, skills, and passion into the group, creating a powerful and distinct sound that won’t be easily forgotten. The band’s sound pulls from many vibes, think alt rock, prog rock, dream pop, metal, funk, and many more.

With 3 previous singles already receiving positive reviews with a healthy curiosity for more music releases, Gather The Lost started recording for their debut album. ‘Never Home’ was the first single from that forthcoming album and it made waves in their homeland with RTE 2 FM picking up the track as their ‘Grassroots Track Of The Week’, as well increasing the band’s visibility with global airplay and favourable media feedback. This was followed by the releases of ‘Delusional’ and ‘War At Dawn’, with both picking up further airplay and media attention, sending the band on and upwards trajectory in anticipation of their album release!

New single ‘This Time’ is out 17/4/26 across all platforms
from the album ‘Silver Lining’ also out 17/4/26

‘This Time’ captures that euphoric surge of conviction, the moment you are resolved to change your life and achieve exactly what you need to. High-energy, high-octane, and frenetic, it arrives alongside the album’s release with a demanding presence that insists the listener pay attention.

‘Silver Lining’ is the debut album from
Dublin-based alt-rock band, Gather The Lost.

In selecting and sequencing the tracks, the band aimed to mirror the rollercoaster of mental health, a subject which is a common theme throughout the songs. The album opens with the high-energy ‘War At Dawn’ followed by the new single ‘This Time’, representing the fierce determination to fight back against the heaviness of internal battles. From there, the album explores a journey of highs and lows, capturing the lived experience of feeling strong and capable one day, only to face the struggle again the next.

Throughout the track list, the band touches on themes of depression, anxiety, and grief, as well as rebellion, liberation, and the evolution of self-belief. The journey concludes with the title track, ‘Silver Lining’. This final note brings the rollercoaster to a close, signalling that the survivor has emerged on the other side. It suggests a hard-won realization of the growth born from the struggle, leaving them ready to move forward and leave the past behind.
