Feel-good Irish Road Trip Comedy Set For UK & Irish release
Coming To UK & Irish Cinemas From 27th February
Tuesday 3rd February 2026, London, UK: Tull Stories is delighted to confirm the release of their feel-good road trip comedy, The Spin. The film will be screening as a part of Tull Stories’ Joy Of Cinema strand and released in UK & Irish Cinemas from 27th February.
This sweet and uplifting Irish road movie from filmmaker Michael Head packs in the laughs as it follows Dermot (Brenock O’Connor) and Elvis (Owen Colgan), two music lovers who run a struggling record shop in Omagh, Northern Ireland. Facing an unpaid rent bill and their vicious landlord Sadie (Derry Girls’ Tara Lynne O’Neill), who’s eager to get them out of her building, the pair stumble across a deal too good to be true – rare, vintage records of blues legend Robert Johnson for sale in Cork at a price too good to be true. If they can get to the other end of Ireland in time, then maybe they could get the rare vinyl, and save the shop…. With just two days to get there the pair head off in a rusty Vauxhall as old as the hills. As they navigate their beautiful journey, they meet locals and make new friends along the way. A fun and off-the-wall buddy movie, The Spin is based upon a semi-autobiographical short story by Omagh music star Mark McCausland (The Lost Brothers, The Basement, McKowski), who also provides its beautiful folk soundtrack.
Speaking on the UK cinema release, Director Michael Head said “The Spin is a feel good buddy movie that doesn’t take itself too seriously. I hope everyone enjoys watching as much as we enjoyed making it.”
Jonny Tull, Founder of Tull Stories added “We’re delighted that The Spin is our next Joy Of Cinema release. We started this strand to provide independent and world cinema fans with a fun time at the pictures, and we’ve had thousands and thousands of people enjoying our films together over the last year. I can’t wait to see how they embrace Michael’s lovely, funny film.”
