Brilliant band alert! JS+TC

The mighty Creatures that be: JS+TC


With their stunning debut DINOSAUR released to critical acclaim earlier this year, Its safe to say that the Belfast foursome have put their stamp on the Irish music scene. 

Earlier this year the Northern Irish Tourist Board launched a phase of TV adverts that featured the bands’ single (from their debut album Dinosuar) tilted Long May You Reign as the title music on the advert. From statistics, the Advert has been the most successful Tv advert they have had on the NITB, so the band were asked to go back into the studio last month to record a new version of the powerful song, for the more laid back Autumn/Winter season. Now, there is a completely new advert being aired, which you will see on a telly near you now. There is a 10 second, 30 second and 60 second version. There is also a 60 second radio advert which will feature an instrumental version. They will all feature a newly arranged and recorded version of Long May You Reign.

So far this year, they performed the song live, to over 20,000 spectators in the RDS arena, and just supported legendary act The Saw Doctors. Their last single ‘KILLER’ was performed live across a number of TV shows including Dave Fanning's 11th Hour, BBC2’s Imeall Gael & on an official live web stream on Muzu.TV featuring JEDWARD (yes Jedward!) as the bands backing dancers. Which shows that here is a band who are willing, able and ready for anything. The right sort of band. 

On the lead up to their Debut album launch they performed on Ireland’s biggest and most well known TV show: THE LATE LATE SHOW. 

Video of the week is the very song that put them on the map of brilliant bands to come out of Ireland:

WORD OF ADVICE_ SEE THEM LIVE- THEY ARE SIMPLY. IN ONE WORD: BRILLIANT.
