There are currently three bands with this name. (1) Heliopause are four beans from Cork and Kerry. Been playing around with instrumental rock and funk since 2005 playing with some great bands, djs and producers from the alternative undercurrent seeping into ireland. In April 2008, they released their self-titled debut EP. www.heliopause.net (2) Belfast-based HELiOPAUSE Songwriter Richard Davis is best known for his work as a filmmaker and animator (whose work includes local music promos for Fighting With Wire, Ed Zealous, Cat Malojian and Skibunny) but since 2006 he has also been making a name for himself as a prolific songwriter with Heliopause. Heliopause became Belfast’s exciting newcomers to the already vibrant and creative scene. Making their debut in February 2006, their sound has been compared to the likes of American Analog Set and Mice Parade. Being described by AU Magazine as "oddly overwhelming", Heliopause have been inspiring audiences with electric and acoustic sets across Ireland and Germany, supporting Wintersleep, Quasi, Gravenhurst, Frightened Rabbit, Uzi & Ari and New York’s Jeffrey & Jack Lewis whilst also playing at BBC Electric Proms Next Stage Tour, Ladyfest Berlin, Curfew Festival and Innishfree Festival.
