Knock knock, open wide. See what's on the other side... Sandinos - 27th November is what's on the other side. We will be performing along with our brothers in noise, Countervela, who have kindly asked us to join them for their first show in quite some time. Let's do it. 👊

Finally getting to see the undoubtedly heavily edited @kneecapceol.bsky.social #glastonbury performance. Incredible. #Kneecap #FreePalestine #FuckKierStarmer

You know what's "not appropriate" Keir?! Arming a fucking genocide... Fuck The Sun and solidarity with Palestine Action. 🇵🇸

Well FINALLY!

We're supporting our comrades in noise at their album launches in Sandinos, Derry. Worth a visit!

With #BlueSky now allowing 3 minute videos - here's the video to our second single, 'You Know Me (So Well)'... all 2 minutes and 5 seconds of it! (Which uses bits of footage from the movie, #HongKongNocturne) Song available in all the places. Give it your best listen. x

Second album in the works (note the obligatory poster of The Undertones in the corner, with @mickeyundertone.bsky.social keeping a keen eye on things)

Gulf of Marc Jacobs by Marc Jacobs etc.

Mon, @stephenmccauley.bsky.social ... it would be scandalous if this wasn't given a spin tonight. And if you're looking for another record to spin... 👀

They may not have a #Bluesky account yet - but our comrades #TheWoodBurningSavages have a new single & video out, and a new album on the horizon. Go give it a listen and a like. 👇 #NewMusic #IrishMusic

Get out to this

‘Astonishing!' Disbelief as every Derry city school seeking major funding in past 10 years rejected Let this sink in and think about how this is disadvantaging children in our city. When is Derry going to demand better?! Quick🧵 www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/educati...

30th January - live at Sandinos Bar, Derry with some of the best locally produced talent. #SupportLiveMusic #Derry

Well if you've not heard Tessio (a stunning duo from Derry) sing some beautiful songs before, you're in for a treat as they're on @stephenmccauley.bsky.social tonight in session from roughly 7pm. If you're a fan of harmonies, hooks and lovely songs from lovely lads - go listen. This is them... 👇

Derry Nocturne.

There's a 'Violence, Pt 2' that doesn't have a video, except for the one in your mind's eye...

Thank you to the wonderful @stephenmccauley.bsky.social for playing our new single on his show! If you're late to the McCauley party - click below, and start from the start. Loads of spectacular music (and us). x

It's #BandcampFriday, and we have a new single - 'Violence Pt. 1' with a couple of unreleased B-Sides available from today! We also have a whole album available too. So if you're in the mood for supporting independent musicians, today is a great day for it. Stuff available here 👇

🚨This Friday.🚨 Violence PT. 1 single/video released with exclusive B-Sides. You can listen it now on our album. And (spoiler alert...) there's a 'Violence PT. 2' on there! #newmusic #irishmusic

It's the season for lists. So here's the beginnings of a list of small independent bands/singers out there doing their best. It's small at the moment, but as the description says - it's ever expanding, so let us know who you are or who you like and it's getting added. Simple as that.

Brilliant article from @gilesrichards.bsky.social regarding the vast struggles (and of course, moments of absolute joy) of the music industry in the current climate. So good I read it twice (in homage to the late John Peel)

Many thanks to @djdebgrant.bsky.social & Tom Ravenscroft for spinning our upcoming single, Violence PT. 1 on New Music Fix on BBC Radio 6! Available on the album right now, and single with B-sides & video released on 6/12. Listen to the show here 👇 www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Yet another update on the music folks starter pack that I'm very slowly collating. If you like hearing about music, musicians and want more of that in your feed, then there may be a few gems that you've not had the bravery to follow yet. You can do it, though. I believe in you.

Sunday's show uploaded for your listening consideraton. We took some records into the studio and did the show on the fly. There's some good mixing and some bad mixing. The music is all great so that's something. Available on Mick's Cloud and most podcast apps. www.mixcloud.com/RadioNightTr...
