Ireland just found their Ndubz

RnB Rap outfit Pyramid Hill impress with their new EP 'Just Get On'. As the Title suggest the music gets on full flow from start to finish. They launch the EP with a FREE gig at the Academy 2 venue on Abbey Street, Dublin on the 18th of October 2012- well worth checking them out. We will certainly pop along and let you all know how the gig goes! if they sound as good as they do on a cd; in a live format then we are in for a great night of Limp Bizkit meets NDubz. 

Quality Hip Hop unhinged by pumping guitar and powerhouse driven rhythms... I reckon this band will find their place on the Irish Music Scene pretty darn fast.  The fact that there are so very few bands in Ireland that sounds like this, can either be a good thing or a bad thing. Its either badly needed or unwanted. Lets hope its not the latter. 

Epic sounds built on epic proportions - Good luck to them.

Another mega band from... Tuam..

Strange Boats are a mix of The Clash meets Bruce Springsteen and they will be releasing their next single "Boys Walk Faster Than Girls" on October 26th. BWFTG is already impressing us so much that its a fast contender for track of the year even in its late addition. We believe (from bands facebook page updates..) that the single has just hit Irish Radio and for the love of all things holy we hope dj's actually support this one, its radio friendly as heck and they also look pretty darn cool even if one of them is spotting a farmers hat- he does it with an angsty style that belies his young years. We're not giving out or nathin, but it would be nice to hear more of this kind of stuff on the aul airwaves. We wait eagerly for the album and press repeat on the wait..



Gigs coming up soon include:


Sunday 7th October - Campbells Tavern, Cloughanover
Friday 23rd November - Mandela Hall, Belfast
Saturday 24th November- the Olympia Dublin (Supporting the Saw Doctors)
