Formation, early years (2011-2013)

September Girls formed following the break up of their previous band Talulah Does the Hula in September 2011, adding drummer Sarah Grimes to the band. The group took their name from the Big Star song 'September Gurls'.
The change in name also resulted in a change in sound from the group with the five-piece taking inspiration from the garage rock scene and bands the members were listening to at the time.

The group then began to perform live around the Irish and UK music scenes and would eventually release several stand alone singles. This included limited edition 7" vinyls such as 'Green Eyed' in 2012 and a Cassette Store Day 2013 release of 'Ships' through Manchester noise pop band PINS record label Haus of Pins. Both songs would end up featuring on their debut album.
Debut album 'Cursing the Sea' and 'Veneer' E.P. (2014-2015)

In January 2014 September Girls released their first studio album Cursing the Sea via independent record label Fortuna Pop!. The album featured the single 'Heartbeats' and was well received by critics upon its release; it currently holds a Metacritic score of 72. The group's tour in support of the album resulted in appearances at both the Body&Soul and SXSW festivals.
In the winter of 2014 the band would follow-up their debut record with the release of a four-track E.P. entitled Veneer through both Fortuna Pop! and Kanine Records. The record was compared favorably to Cursing the Sea and many critics regarding it as a marked improvement, with Lisa Wright of NME writing that "Where September Girls' debut earmarked them as the latest addition to the Dum Dum Girls/Vivian Girls school of Phil Spector worship, 'Veneer' finds the Irish quintet throwing off the '60s girl-group coyness in favour of something fiercer."
Second album 'Age of Indignation' and 'Veneer' E.P. (2016-present)
September Girls released their second studio album Age of Indignation in April 2016 via Fortuna Pop!. The album was preceded with the single and video 'Love No One' Age of Indignation currently holds a Metacritic score of 69. The group did a brief US West Coast tour alongside several SXSW shows. The band played a series of album launches in Ireland in April 2016, before released a second single/video for "Jaw on the Floor," featuring backing vocals from A Place to Bury Strangers' Oliver Ackermann. They also played a brief UK tour in support of the album in May 2016.
