Armoured Bear Biog

‘Armoured Bear inhabits that sultry space between sleep and consciousness, that magic realm where dreams encroach on reality, that special spot where for one moment of bliss in the blue dawning of the morning, you awake oblivious to the world and forget where you are.’

From an early age Armoured Bear began to notice crayon squiggles behind the hard lines of reality. But is it any wonder when he grew up in West Cork near a swaying ocean full of mermaids, surrounded by trees full of seashells under the watchful eye of the man in the moon! As he grew, so did his musical vision, today he tours with his Night-Time Garden set, the perfect visual framework to his imaginative and innovative songs. What are these songs about? At their most ambitious, I suppose they’re attempts to reconcile the innocence of youth with the heart ache of growing up, but that’s just what I think; you’d have to ask Armoured Bear that question yourself.

Armoured Bear’s debut single, Imagination will be available on download from June 6th 2008. The single features 2 songs from the forthcoming album, Honeycomb Moons and a bonus track. The music video for Imagination has been described as a ‘visual hug to anyone that needs it’.

Dear Irish friends and friends of Europe,
I am a citizen of a EU member state. In my country, we have not been allowed to vote on the future of Europe, because we already voted NO, and they

knew we would vote NO again. You, our friends in Ireland, alone have this right and are called to vote on the "Lisbon Treaty" on June 12th.
I reject this Treaty as undemocratic in conception and in content. Please, vote NO on this Treaty for me as a first step to building a common social,
ecological, democratic and peaceful Europe.

YES to Democracy, NO to Lisbon Treaty

Please: read the new treaty: (reader friendly version)
