a little solidarity

What an awesome night of Northern Irish music :-) I got to see some of these bands for the first time at this event and o-boy I was far from disappointed.
I can honestly say I've been aspired again musically so definitely a good time to keep writing and moving forward.

Here's a link to each of the bands I had the pleasure of seeing -

Seen these guys on Jools Holland the other night, wither it was a re-run or not i can't remember, but good grief these guys are class!

Although they have a new single out, "The Bones of You" my favourite track for now is "One Day Like This".

I would agree with every other musician in the country that the music industry is big and now quite saturated, but these guys prove that you can still create songs with great hooks and great all round music talent.

Check out the myspace and give them a good look over :)

GBOB, Dublin

No album this week but after GBOB in Belfast being a bit of fun and outlook on local bands for me, I thought Id make an effort and support Red Like Crimson on their triumphant chance at getting though and winning more opportunity and some serious cash.

Unfortunately they didn't make it through, they played incredibly and put on a great show. I'm still flabbergasted that such a good band has come out of Lurgan.

Keep up the good work guys and keep pushing, I think you're gonna break though sometime.. sometime soon :-)
