Popical Island are an indie pop collective based in Dublin, Ireland.[1]

Someone once said: “No band is an island.” But a whole bunch of bands makes a Popical Island , a heart-shaped place collectively governed by a web of indie-pop-loving soulmates based in Dublin yet reaching out to all of Ireland. [2]

Popical Island released their first compilation "Popical Islnd #1" in June 2010 [3] which has since been referred to as one of the most significant Irish releases of this year.[4]. A limited run of 200 physical copies of the compilation were made for the launch [5] which is now available as a download only. The compilation, described by the NME as being like Waterworld meets The Sound Of Music[6], has been well received by Irish critics and lauded by Hot Press magazine as the best collection of songs from bands you've probably never heard of you're ever going to hear [7]
