It's been a long 19 months for the entertainment sector, and for bands like Picture This.

'The Nation Needs Music': Picture This Respond To New Government Guidelines

00:00:00 / 00:00:00

While it had been long hoped that the latest Government guidance would provide clarity for live music, this hasn't been the case.

Speaking to Dermot and Dave, Picture This expressed their frustration that a country that prides itself on its music has been left with 'strategies that don't make any sense' by people who have 'turned their backs' on the entire music scene.

The Kildare band called the situation 'laughable' and called on those involved to support the sector when it needs it most.

Despite the lack of clarity, Ryan, Jimmy and the lads are playing an incredibly exciting, very intimate gig with Guinness.

Picture This will join Gemma Dunleavy to perform for fans in a Dublin pub over the coming weeks as part of the #herestoitall campaign.
