Glad you liked the tunes Grainne. I love what you're doing too.

I'm jealous as hell that you have Moe producing. He's been very supportive of a couple of bands I've been involved in and played us fairly regularly at The Tap over the last couple of years. As a HUGE TPOH fan, Moe enjoying my tunes was one of the greatest compliments I have ever received.

Also, if there wasn't a big feck-off ocean separating us, I would have offered my pedal steel services.

Keen to hear your album once it's done. We're buried in the studio recording our album too at the moment with a deadline for launch at the end of May. Lots to get done. Busy busy.

Take care and thanks for saying 'hi'.

Howdy! Thanks for being our MySpace friend. I do not know how to play the gut bucket well, but I do have one in my basement. It was a gift (to my wife) from a friend after she tried (and unfortunately failed at) building one herself. Anywho, lovely tunes. Stay cool.
