Colm Ó Snodaigh	Feb 13 2009 10:13 AM Thank you for your friendship This is my new album which is out now on KILA Records: Thanks for all your support Colm
Forest of Sound	Feb 11 2009 4:31 PM Charlie Parr is from the same Duluth music scene that spawned the likes of Low and Haley Bonar, and his music delves deep into the back roads of American folk music, there’s hints of Robert Johnson, Nick Drake and Will Oldham in his playing, and a true from the heart power and clarity that is simply stunning. This guy is the real thing, and you can hear it in every note he plays, which would also explain why the people at the superb End of the Road festival ask him back every single year! Neil McSweeney plays beautifully considered and perfectly restrained music that will delight fans of Low, Adrian Crowley, Nina Nastasia, Mark Kozelek, and Jason Molina. Deftly fingerpicked folk loveliness from a local favourite - Michael Rossiter perfectly executes traditional folk as well as his own material, sings from his heart and gets the perfect sound from his guitar. Sunday: 1/3/2009 @ The Packhorse, Leeds. Doors 8pm. A Forest of Sound presentation in association. £5 adv / £6 on the door. Tickets available at Jumbo Records, Crash Records, and We Got Tickets.
WagonWheelMedia	Feb 9 2009 7:47 PM See you here soon... http://www. facebook. com/event. php?eid=72351232784
Magnas Colorado	Feb 3 2009 1:48 PM It was a really good night Saturday at the Shakespeare, your songs are brilliant, I loved it.
