context_page_description: Delorentos are a Dublin-based Irish alternative rock band, formed in 2005. They consist of Rónan Yourell, Kieran McGuinness, Níal Conlan and Ross McCormick. The band's debut album In Love with Detail was critically acclaimed in Ireland, being nominated for the Choice Music Prize and in the Best Irish Album category at the 2007 Meteor Awards, at which Delorentos were also nominated for Best New Irish Band. Two extended plays have also been released; their debut release, titled Leave It On, in October 2005, and the follow-up EP, titled Do You Realise, came out in November 2007. The Delorentos discography consists of a selection of singles which impacted on the Irish Singles Chart, such as "The Rules" in May 2006 and "Stop" in July 2007.
  Aside from headline shows, Delorentos have opened a number of high-profile shows throughout their career, including 2007 support slots for Sinéad O'Connor at Heineken Green Energy, the Dave Matthews Band at the Point Theatre and Arctic Monkeys, Supergrass and The Coral at Malahide Castle. The band have also played with the likes of Idlewild, Gang of Four, Bell X1 and The Futureheads in locations such as London, New York City, Chicago and Toronto.
context_section_description: Delorentos recorded their debut album in Dublin's Sun and Apollo Studios with Gareth Mannix. In Love with Detail was released on their own Cottage Records label on 20 April 2007. The album entered the Irish Albums Chart at number seven, spending five weeks in that chart, and later received a nomination for the Choice Music Prize. The majority of the album was written over the previous year. Later that year, Delorentos had festival slots at Oxegen, Electric Picnic and Cois Fharraige. At that year's Heineken Green Energy, the band supported Sinéad O'Connor and Kíla, they supported the Dave Matthews Band at the Point Theatre on 23 May 2007, and went on to open for Arctic Monkeys at Malahide Castle on two separate dates in June 2007. The single "Stop" was released in July. A second EP, Do You Realise, was released in November, spending two weeks in the Irish Singles Chart and peaking at number thirty-four.
  Delorentos twice toured the United States during this time, including several dates in March 2008. The Irish Times selected their South by Southwest performance in Austin, Texas in March 2008 as the best by any Irish act at the event. The band also performed at the Razz Club in Barcelona, Spain. However, they kept a low enough profile on the Irish live circuit for much of the year, only performing at a small number of festivals, including Oxegen, the Bandon Music Festival and the Drogheda Arts Festival. The Irish Times noted their performance in Pet Sounds on the Sunday of Oxegen 2008 by reminiscing upon their performance from two years previously in front of a smaller crowd early on a Sunday morning. Performances of the singles "Basis of Everything" and "The Rules" at Oxegen 2008 were described as having "the kind of hummable sheen that sounds as perfect at a festival as on the radio".
  Two extended plays were also been released to accompany their debut; their debut release, titled Leave It On, in October 2005, and the follow-up EP, titled Do You Realise, came out in November 2007.
