Tickets for the event are priced at €10 and are available via Eventbrite. Chameleon will share the bill with the Cork-based band Cardinals and DJ Beks. The event is hosted by Ross McCarney and Meg Reilly and features a dedicated Soundtrack Stories house band.
A central element of the night allows audience members to volunteer their own stories to be told onstage, which the band then soundtracks live. All funds raised from the ticket sales go directly to Music Network to support music development and touring within Ireland.

Regarding current trends in production, Chameleon cited “The Cops Are Coming” by Junior Mesa as a favorite track. He described the song as a fresh update on the style of Mk.Gee, noting that the production is “crunchier than a Nature Valley bar.”
Jon Bellion concert sparks Chameleon's early musical interests
Chameleon’s first concert experience was seeing Jon Bellion at the Olympia. While he previously aspired to be a beatmaker, he says that was not his destiny. His first record purchase was a Flo Rida CD featuring the song “Whistle,” though he also highlighted the track “I Cry” as a heater.
