Microdisney — ирландская рок-группа, образованная в 1980 году в Корке и исполнявшая мелодичный инди-рок c элементами фолка и разнообразных поп-влияний. Ядро коллектива составил авторский дуэт: гитарист Шон О’Хэган (англ. Sean O'Hagan) и фронтмен Кэтал Кофлэн (англ. Cathal Coughlan), автор остро конфронтационных текстов, основной мишенью который стало ирландское католичество.

Between 1983 and 1986 the band recorded six Peel Sessions for BBC Radio and released their debut album for Rough Trade called Everybody Is Fantastic. In 1985, their album The Clock Comes Down The Stairs reached number one in the UK Indie Chart, and they reached the Irish top 40 with the 1987 single "Town to Town". They were one of the few Irish bands of the 1980s to achieve international success with "Town to Town" reaching number 55 in the UK Singles Chart. This single, released by Virgin Records, was followed into the UK chart by "Gale Force Wind" in March 1988. That 1 July, days after supporting David Bowie at London's Dominion Theatre, the band split up. O'Hagan and Coughlan formed separate bands, the High Llamas and the Fatima Mansions, respectively, with Coughlan also going on to work with Sean Hughes in Bubonique and Luke Haines as part of The North Sea Scrolls project. In 2017, a radio documentary was made about the band called Iron Fist in Velvet Glove - The Story of Microdisney by producer Paul McDermott, which was re-broadcast by Newstalk 106-108fm as part of their Documentary on Newstalk season. In 2018, Microdisney reunited for the first time in 30 years, performing live in Dublin and London. In February 2019, they played their last shows in Dublin and Cork. The members of Microdisney were awarded an IMRO/NCH Trailblazer Award, given to "culturally important" Irish albums (in this instance, for The Clock Comes Down The Stairs) in 2018.
