Yesterday, a promo clip for ‘Good Cake, Bad Cake – The Story of Lir’ went on YouTube. This documentary is directed by Shimmy Marcus (Headrush, Aidan Walsh, Master of the Universe) and looks at Dublin band Lir and their ambitions in the early nineties. Even if you can’t remember Lir, you’ll know some of its members including Ro Byrne, Colm Quearney, cornerstones of the Irish music scene.
Strange fact, I went to the Senior College in Ballyfermot way back when and recorded a voiceover demo in Lir’s manager Sean Hayes’ studio in Trim in County Meath. He did an interview with me for it too. Must dig it out! Anyway this film is going to be a must watch for any lover of the Irish music scene.
