Basht.

Live Nation Presents 14+ (Under 16s Must Be Accompanied By An Adult) Basht. are a rising alternative rock band from Dublin, Ireland, who formed around 2021 and took their name from the word “unabashed.” Fronted by vocalist and primary lyricist Jack Leavey alongside bassist Louis Christle and lead guitarist Lughaidh Armstrong-Mayock, the band delivers a brooding yet energetic sound defined by heavy basslines and loud-quiet dynamics. Their music frequently tackles themes of power structures, religious authority, and generational politics—concepts that took center stage on their debut concept album, Poor Advice, released via LAB Records on October 9, 2026. Known for their commanding live presence, Basht. built early momentum supporting acts like Wunderhorse and the Goo Goo Dolls before cementing their status as independent chart-toppers and festival staples across Europe.
