Every now and then an artist or group gets in touch with me on the ole Social Media to check out their music! It’s very rare but it’s cool when they do because it gives me a chance to hear new music and ask them a few questions. These artists are usually Irish, but notContinue reading “Eye-C-E.”

Big Thief-Capacity
Forgive me in advance if I get a little carried away with this one. Big Thief have shot out of nowhere to become one of my favourite bands at the minute. They’ve two records, ‘Masterpiece‘ released in 2016 which was quickly followed up by ‘Capacity’ mid 2017. It’s this record that I want to talk aboutContinue reading “Big Thief-Capacity”
TOTW-IDLES-Exeter
Never has there been an easier choice for Track Of The Week than ‘Exeter’. ‘Brutalism‘ is an explosive record all over and IDLES blunt and slightly comedic approach to writing actually sits well with the raging sound of the record. This is my favourite track off the record and if it strikes a chord in you,Continue reading “TOTW-IDLES-Exeter”
Big Thief in Whelans!
Absolutely delighted to have gotten two tickets to Big Thief who will play Whelans on April 1st. Just getting into these guys whose albums ‘Masterpiece’ and ‘Capacity’ are incredible. Pure lyrics and a natural rock sound that’s both genuine and fresh, I can’t seem to pull myself away from them. Check out the mesmerising ‘Mary’Continue reading “Big Thief in Whelans!”
St.Vincent-Actor
I’ve known of St.Vincent since about 2012, so not long. However, I took a special interest in her after I had seen that she appeared on a National record. I did a little research both online and in-store and discovered that she had a few records, so I thought I’d treat myself. ‘Actor‘ was theContinue reading “St.Vincent-Actor”
TOTW-Sonic Youth-Dirty Boots
I’ve never hidden my love for Sonic Youth and recently they’re all I can listen to. ‘Goo’ in particular is a record I keep going over, and it’s the opening track, ‘Dirty Boots’ that is our TOTW. A little more subtle than what fans of Sonic Youth were used to at the time, but stillContinue reading “TOTW-Sonic Youth-Dirty Boots”
Laura Ann Brady-Lie
Laura Ann Brady is one of Ireland’s most refreshing talents and funnily enough, an old friend. I’ve picked up on her music recently again and I’d like to talk about her new release, ‘Lie’. I’ve had it on repeat lately and I’m telling you about it because you simply have to take 6 little minutesContinue reading “Laura Ann Brady-Lie”
TOTW-Neutral Milk Hotel-Two Headed Boy
Neutral Milk Hotel released ‘In The Aeroplane Over The Sea‘ in 1998 and it has gone on to be regarded as one of the best albums of the 90’s, potentially ever. There’s a number of brilliant and thoughtful tracks on this record but the one that’s been stuck in my head is ‘Two Headed Boy’.Continue reading “TOTW-Neutral Milk Hotel-Two Headed Boy”
Drake – If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late
‘If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late‘ is the fourth mixtape by Drake. We all know who Drake is in 2017 but it was this record that brought him to my attention in 2015. I hadn’t been a fan of his previous records apart from a few tracks, but when I heard ‘Energy’, the secondContinue reading “Drake – If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late”
