Your True North – Video
After a few long and exhausting months for me (catching up on the latest batch of 19 year old footballer’s enthralling autobiographies), it gave me great pleasure to find this in my inbox at the weekend. My good friend Roricam shot, edited and polished this music video over the past little while. The video’s for…

East is East-ish
I’ve taken a long break from blogging, but I’m back. Reasons for neglecting the blog are varied… from studio fatigue to just general fatigue, from moving house to moving frames of mind. Long story short, I’m going to be a little more active on the blogging front. I may stray from the point now and…

Athbhliain faoi mhaise daoibh!

Out Of Reach – HotPress Review
TIGER COOKE – OUT OF REACH “Bearing absolutely no similarities to the Gabrielle super smash of the same name. ‘Out Of Reach’ is a charming alloy of soul and folk that’s certain to go down a treat with fans of Van Morrison’s jazz man days. File under yum.” HotPress – Wed, 20th Oct 2010

Sunshine Radio Recording
Sunshine 106.8 FM sent me this recording of a session we had on Friday. So here it is in all its glory. A wee chat and two songs. (By the way, the giant comedy pause and scramble at the end is because I was expecting to only play one song! Highly amusing!)
