Share New Single + Video ‘The Flood’
‘All Tied Together’ Out Jan 30th, 2026 via River Lea
North American Winter Headline Tour On Sale Now
Fresh off a North American tour supporting I’m With Her, Multi-award-winning Irish band Ye Vagabonds are sharing a second track and video, ‘The Flood’ from their upcoming album, All Tied Together, out Jan 30th, 2026 on Rough Trade’s River Lea label. ‘The Flood’ comes with a video directed by Ellius Grace (Lankum, Lisa O’Neill, Junior Brother) and follows the album’s first single ‘On Sitric Road’ which was accompanied by a live video recorded in Dublin.
‘The Flood’ is an upbeat, fiddle-propelled window into a lively but doomed scene from Ye Vagabond’s early Dublin days, a squatters’ community brought to vivid life. Recorded completely live in a Galway house by Philip Weinrobe (Big Thief, Adrienne Lenker), it features an ensemble of players including Shahzad Ismaily and River Lea labelmate Sam Amidon.
Director Ellius Grace says of the video and song “When Brían and Diarmuid got in touch about making music videos for their new album I couldn’t say no. Their music is so evocative and beautiful, and this new album feels incredibly personal to them. It was an added bonus to hear that the guys had dancer Jimmy Southward on board, who I had seen on stage a number of times. This became a beautiful collaboration between all four of us, taking Brían and Diarmuid’s ideas and translating them into loose stories which Jimmy then brought to life through his performance. Brían and Diarmuid also wanted to shoot these videos in a single take to capture a feeling of immediacy or reality. This became a great challenge where myself and the crew had to choreograph ourselves along with Jimmy to land in the right places and have everything work the way it should.
The Flood is a song about the housing crisis, and how we live in urban spaces that can sometimes feel prohibitive and impossible to survive in. Jimmy takes on the character of a businessman with a supposedly successful job, though he’s still living in a tent in Phoenix Park. He gets up and goes to work, smiling and waving at passersby, but something moves him as he goes. His body convulses and he becomes more and more out of control. The briefcase is full of random objects and he throws that away eventually along with his phone, stripping away the veneer of a happy worker and becoming free. The more he succumbs to the movement and supposed madness, the happier he becomes. He doesn’t need to pretend any more.“
Ye Vagabonds will embark on a headline US tour on January 31 in Brooklyn, NY which sees them crossing the country for shows before finishing in Seattle, WA on February 16. Tickets for all shows are on-sale now here. Future touring plans include headline tours of the UK, Ireland, and Europe in 2026, including a show at London’s esteemed Roundhouse on June 11th.
