   About I am not lefthanded

Our video for Everybody Sleeps:


Things other people have said:

"When a simple musical idea is done exceptionally well it instantly leaves the dabblers and wannabes in the shade - I am not left handed does just that, effortlessly, gracefully and with an indisputable beauty - an absolutely flawless, touching, rich chocolate sauce voice over not much more than a well seasoned guitar and or piano, no battling elements here just a smooth natural flow with touches of the gentle confident styles of Suzanne Vega, Natalie Merchant and Joni Mitchell." (The Bull and Gate)

"Songs like 'Long Goodbyes' bring me back again. The song invites the bleakness in, then pours it out again, filtered in fight and colour.
 The power and pain is still there, but it feels more bearable, something transformed. It is knuckle straining against skin, a whitened face in a pool of light. It takes all that emotion, gripped so tightly, and casts it into the sky. All that is grit and grain becomes soft earth once more, scattering gently as it falls. Line by line, the song has ground it down, until the emotion itself is grounded: safe now, earthed, returned to loam. Earth to earth, and ashes on my fingers no more.
 A song to hold to yourself, to sing to the north-east wind until the dust is out of your eyes." (fabulist.org)

"Another of those rare things that at only five seconds in you know instantly you're going to fall headlong in love with, the bitter sweet cruise controlled drive timing ’persuade yourself’ smoulders its way into your affections in a way that these days only Kirsten Hersh manages to do." (losingtoday.com)

"An individual voice - kind of Karen Carpenter meets Tori Amos at a Frank Black gig." (livemusic.fm)

"It's got a certain something about it, a certain spark which reminds me of the early stuff by bands like jj72 and Mazzy Star, it's definitely very uplifting" (Charlie Ashcroft, Low-Slung Podcast)

"There's a fantastically dark Mazzy Star feel to it though and it’s certainly surprising and very welcome to hear some beautiful female vocals on an Irish record." (Michelle Dalton, eclectichoney.com)

"A rather handy dusky indie trio whose lyrical tunes give a nod to the likes of Rilo Kiley and Death Cab For Cutie." (the Windmill, Brixton)

Our video for Long Goodbyes:



Our hazy memories:

Fleeing Ireland in the middle of the night, guitars across our backs - calling wrong numbers with confusing, angry people on the end - huddling in the cold on a boat, feeling less than well - moving in a swarm of people in a sweaty underground club, confused by the lack of good music - getting lost in London, coming up for air when we can - looking for something very important, but never finding it - sitting in coffeeshops with cats - trying not to smile at the sad parts of movies - fucked if I know, Terry...
