Nixer

Nixer kicked off 2026 with a standout performance at Whelan’s Ones To Watch on January 10th, whipping the 1am Dublin crowd into a frenzy. They carried that momentum straight into a headline show at The Windmill in London, before joining Safe Mind for a European run through Paris and Berlin, closing out with a headline show in Belgium, all by February 14th.

Following this, Nixer featured on Shelf Lives’ debut record, supporting the release with a run of UK record store shows in early March, while the track landed on Spotify’s New Music Friday. The release sets Nixer up for a run of new singles arriving from April 2026, further developing their raw fusion of synth-punk and new wave.

Praise for Nixer:

"That is particularly homemade music. Gentrification is a track by Nixer, Nixer is a new discovery of mine..”
IGGY POP, BBC Radio 6

"Nixer’s set was like and audio energy drink, or maybe two - one after another. The tracks that they have created are high energy, but not without subtlety and substance."
Dan Hegarty - RTÉ top five gigs of 2022

“An interesting mix of taut new-wave guitar and keyboards”
Steve Lamacq, BBC Radio 6 - Nixer 6Music Spotlight Artist 21/01/22

“It is a lively one… discovered by Iggy Pop who gave them early 6Music support… fantastic no wave/new wave action to this… can’t wait to hear more from the duo Nixer”
Lauren Laverne, BBC Radio 6 - ‘While You Were Sleeping’ track
