Now they’re back with a new EP due for release on October 29th. The first noticeable thing about Wonder Villains is just [...]

Tune of the Week 12/10/2012: Runaway Go

Tune of the Week 12/10/2012: Runaway Go

Runway Go are definitely one of my favourite Irish bands of the past eighteen months or so and they’re back with a new track called ‘Jump Start’. The track was produced by Jonathan Shakhovskoy who has also worked with U2 and the awesome Patrick Wolf amongst others and has done a stellar job. I just [...]

Turn: Live at Whelans 31/08/2012 Review

It’s a Friday night in Dublin, a lot of regular weekend music revelers are spending the weekend in a field in Stradbally in Co. Laois. They have been replaced by droves of College Football fans who are in town for a Notre Dame and Navy NCAA game. It’s also the first time in seven years [...]

Free Music Monday 25/06/2012: Fred and Bob

Today’s recommended free music comes from the awesome Dublin based four piece, Fred and Bob. I’ve been looking forward to to this E.P. for a long time. I first got to know the band when they came onto Culture Cafe when it broadcast on DCUfm. Great laughs were had with the Emma, Sophia, Gill and [...]

Silhouette: Running Against The Wall Review

Silhouette: Running Against The Wall Review

Shauna Tohill is Silhouette but with this single Ms. Tohill does more than just reveal the outline of herself. Tohill cleverly gets the refrain in early in the song, building familiarity with the track. ‘Running Against The Wall’ is a pounding in your face indie pop tune with clever arrangements and instrumental breaks and big [...]

Tune of the Week 08/06/2012: A Dark Horse

Over the past few days I have been looking at songs to include in my Definitive Football Collection blog post and this video was sent in my direction. While A Dark Horse‘s ‘Take Me Home’ isn’t a football song, the delicate haunting instrumentation and voices have combined with the Aoife Kelleher directed video to produce [...]

Free Music Monday 28/05/2012: In The Willows

One of the good things about recommending free music is as well as sometimes recommending downloads from artists that we would all be familiar with, it also gives the chance to introduce new acts. This week, I’ve decided to recommend the ‘Long Time Listener EP’ from Waterford band ‘In The Willows’, who have only been [...]

The Shoos: Say Something Review

The Shoos: Say Something Review

‘Say Something’ is the new single from The Shoos and is released on their own label ‘The Shoos Records’. It’s a brave move for the band as they were with Universal in Ireland for a spell and also headed to the U.S. last year as big money and investment was about to come their way. [...]
