Legendary Dublin instrumental band TRM (formerly The Redneck Manifesto) makes a welcome return with their 8th album, Grushy, on Ten Spot Records, due for release in September 2025, along with an Irish Tour to launch the album.

After the departure of three members, TRM took time to consider their foundation and future, but the desire to make new music was just too strong for founding members Matthew Bolger, Niall Byrne and Richard Egan to step awayafter a few productive writing sessions in Dublin (Ireland) and Malmo (Sweden), Grushy was born.

Comprising seven songs, Grushy finds the band taking their sound to intriguing new places. The signature interweaving guitars and melodic bass lines are there but there are now also structural experiments, textural detours and rhythmic tricks that pave the way for new musical territory.

These songs are a focussed collection of lightness and darkness, connected together by an attention to detail that establishes TRMs biggest ideaserve the song! Whether its the heavy-lidded yet vigorous beats of Off The Hook, the window-down, arm-out groove of Hidden Hands, the gentle psychedelia of medieval bliss that is Tonglen, the contemplative riffage of Aggro, or the dreamy intertwining of guitar lines in Pass It OnTRMs Grushy rewards listeners with new surprises at every turn.

The work is being released by Ten Spot Records (Dublin) in collaboration with Strange Daisy Records (USA) on audiophile quality 10 vinyl, cassette & digital, from September 2025. Each record is hand numbered and housed in a custom-made, lithographically printed, 10 Tip-On deluxe gatefold jacket designed by Ten Spot Records with layout by M&E Studio.
