"Kicking back to Indie’s golden Nineties of whine, women and song set to chunky guitar and endearingly bitchy drawls, Blasterbra sold out their first gig for good reason. "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
December sees the eagerly awaited first release of Galway band,
Blasterbra. The 6 track E.P. entitled "Soon" was written, recorded,
engineered and produced by the band in their cottage-studio Abhaile
Studios. Their hard work has finally paid off and they will be
celebrating the release by performing in The Roisin Dubh, Galway on
Thursday December 10th. Support on the night comes from The Ambience
Affair + Elk
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last year Blasterbra put together a 2 track demo which received
regular airplay on Icon, Phantom fm; demo of the week, Green & Live,
Green on Red fm and Galway Bay fm. Based on this demo Blasterbra were
selected out of over 2,000 bands to take part in the ‘Road to V
Festival’ Battle of the Bands in the Islington Academy, London. The
selection panel consisted of A&R from Atlantic Records, Virgin and
NME.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In anticipation of their approaching release Blasterbra have been busy
honing their live show. They have been establishing a quickly growing
fan base with performances at Strange Brew, Roisin Dubh, Punx Picnic
Music Festival, Volvo Ocean Race and the Green and Live Sessions,
Dolans.

Just incase you didn't know you can get your loved ones a Christmas present they will never forget this year...our album. You can get it at www.subplotrecords.com for seven euro but if your in town this Chrismas and if you want to go all out this year it is also available in Plugd Records for ten euro.
Greetings to you, our kind friends from Ireland. As some of you may be aware, we had intended to visit your fine and verdant home this very winter, in the deep cold heart of December. Unfortunately, due to circumstance, (that surly old bugbear), we will not be able to make it. Do not fear, no need to rend your hair in agony or take to the streets in mournful procession. This is merely a postponement of our inevitable arrival, as foretold by scholars and mystics of old. This band of rough hewn and unknown balladeers from out the concrete wilds of Boise, Idaho will make joyous landfall in the relatively near(ish) future. In the mean time, we will wrap ourselves in blankets and begin recording our new album, to be released this spring. We greatly appreciate all of your support, comments, and interest, and look forward to performing for you soon. Take care and keep your toes warm. Josh/ASD And here, an extra special gift for you. A video of us covering a song by Boise’s biggest musical export, (no, not Josh Ritter, though he is a fellow Idahoan, of whom we’re duly proud), Built to Spill.
