The Coffee Sessions are an event hosted fortnightly on Friday afternoons in Starbucks Coffee Company on Harcourt Street, Dublin 2. Coffee and music have always gone well together, and we here at the Coffee Sessions hope to continue that tradition, while helping the Marie Keating Foundation to promote cancer awareness. These gigs go on in the store from 4.30pm to 7pm, admission free, and donations recieved go to the Marie Keating Foundation to promote cancer awareness. An ideal place for people for the under 18s of Dublin to see some fantastic acts play, the coffee sessions has no age restrictions!
And now things have changed! Starbucks in Ranalagh have decided to hold the Coffee Sessions there too! The gigs there have the same set up, but are in aid of the Women's Shelter in Rathmines.
So bring your friends, bring your family, bring random strangers off the street! Just come, and any change you've got drop it in the jar!
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!

Sorry bout the group mail (despite your name being cunningly added into the first line. How did I do that?)
Anyways, stuck up some new recordings of songs we did in the album session in Electrical Audio. None of the songs are mastered yet and there are a couple of tweaks here and there to be done but I thought I"d stick em up so you could get a listen before the album is released.
I"m gonna rotate the songs on an as unyet decided basis (weekly, biweekly, triweekly even??) and include songs that didn"t make the final cut. Watch out for them...
The songs up now are There You Stand, This Is How We Play and Home.
