PRESS REVIEWS
......its funny the things people say about you!!.....
'Steaming, funky, sexy beast of an album' - Sunday Tribune
'Music as shiny and happy as Paddy Casey's latest is a rarity' - Irish Times
'It's got 'tude and it rocks' - TV Now
'new album is stylistically jumbled, moving from jaunty folk-rock to soul-inflected groovers' - Sunday Times
'...on his new LP (Casey) seeks to coax his inner-soul to the surface...Casey's songs have always testified to his skills as an arranger, featuring parping horns, jazz-inflected drums and even flute solos...' - Irish Independent
MOST OF THAT BIO CRACK IS ON MY WEBSITE,AND MOST OF IT IS TRUE,I DIDN'T WRITE ANY OF IT BUT 4 ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED THE SITE IS
Hi guys, Ive just topped 100,000 plays on www.numberonemusic.com/jamessullivan after only being on the site for 5 months. Tnx for all of your support. I'm one step closer to reaching my goal of reaching the wider world with my music. James.
Hi Paddy, Its been a while and we thought it was about time we updated you on what we've been up to. Our debut EP Little World is now available at our gigs and will soon be available from our myspace and facebook pages, you will also be able to download it from itunes, but we don't have a release date for this as yet. To celebrate the fact that we have now reached 25,000 plays on myspace, we are giving you a free MP3 of Rockabye Baby. All you have to do is send your email address to queen.elvis@yahoo.ie and we will send it to you. We have spent the last year rehearsing with a full band and are now ready to bring it on the road. You can get a look at us when we appear on Balcony TV this week with the full line up. We are currently taking bookings for gigs/concerts/festivals and can be contacted on the email above, or through our myspace and facebook pages. Thankyou for your continued support in what has been a great year for us! Best Wishes Caroline and Colin
