Cloakroom Q

Cloakroom Q are a rare breed — a band unafraid to be truly original in an era of algorithms and easy categorization. Hailing from Belfast, their music defies convention, moving effortlessly between heavy metal, trad ballads, lounge jazz, and hyperpop without ever feeling disjointed. Their sophomore album Tune You Have to Dance To is a sprawling, An odyssey that explores loss, confusion, yearning, and perseverance, often through a lens of tongue-in-cheek humour and wild stylistic detours. With contributions ranging from trumpet to harp, and production that embraces spontaneity over polish, the album showcases a band committed to unfiltered artistic expression. It’s dense, daring, and deeply human — a sonic collage built on emotional depth and fearless invention.
