🔥📹 content alert!!!! 📹🔥 just thought we’d share a couple vids for ye olde algo, so as to remain a longstay in ur feed. why am i justifying it. you get how this all works our show with @oodelally.music & @connthornton in sunflower in april was one of the funnest gigs we’ve ever played. AND we were lucky enough that the awesome gabriel of oodelally captured some of our set on his camcorder. here it is ~ these are two new songs ~ “wooden floor” (1) & “swelter” (2). they’re not out yet, but this is pretty much what we sound like these days more stuff coming, as ever. yadah yadah yadah

🔆 LAVERY’S, 21st JUNE 🔆 howdy! it’s so cool that we’ll be playing in lavery’s in a matter of weeks with a bunch of bands we think are awesome : @madraimusic , @thatbandfranklin & @runningouttheclockband ~ the aim of this gig is to launch madrai’s new single, ‘turn it around’, which is out on friday 13th june, which at the time of writing is one week away, which is not that long really. mark your preferred calendar app with that date. we’ll share it on our story too so hopefully everyone should see that it’s been an epic year of gigging for us thus far. we’re mainly playing new stuff, and enjoying that very much. so let’s keep rockin and rollin all summer long. we got some more stuff coming up too. but for now the focus really is on this gig. so go buy a ticket via the link in our bio 📸 @colmlaverty
