About

Hailing from Dublin, Don’t Tell Mum are a four-piece Indie / Pop / Rock band comprising of lead singer John McCabe, guitarist Jake McGuinness, bassist Jordan McGovern and drummer Johnny Roberts.
Whilst their sound takes influence from the likes of Catfish & The Bottlemen, Arctic Monkeys and The Wombats, their own style is built upon with driving rhythm and hook-filled melodies.
Having released their debut single ‘Simple Things’ at the beginning of April 2021, Don’t Tell Mum followed this up with their first gig filmed at Camelot Studios. It amassed a whopping 15’000 views in just under 2 weeks and counting.
DTM released their second single ‘Lookin' so Good’ on the 29th of October. This was shortly followed up by a support slot with legendary Irish Rock band Aslan at a sold out 3Olympia Theatre in Dublin on November 1st.
2022 has a lot in store for the band as they plan to release an EP before their sold-out headline show at Dublin's iconic Whelan's on May 21st. As well as that, the band have further support slots with Aslan as they travel around Ireland for their 40 year anniversary tour.
Huge praise has since come with a plug on The Chris Moyles Show on Radio X in the UK, which led to an influx in the band’s following and an opportunity to engage with fans across the pond. The first single ‘Who’d Have Known’ will be released on May 6th. This will be part of their debut EP ‘Running Riot’ which is due to be released later in the year.
