Were playing Radiator club in the Hub on June 6th.

Hi Everyone,

I want to tell you about a little angel in our lives called Lia; well actually she’s my niece. She can’t walk, talk or even swallow but on her well days she communicates with us through laughter and on her bad days through the sadness and wisdom in her eyes. Her brain works on a different wavelength, that we can't tune into to so we’ve named it cerebral palsy. We’ve recorded an e.p for her and that’s her being all Kim Gordon on the front cover. The first track is a new als song called “s.r.k”. The second is a new version of “decade for believing” with Paddy Barrett playing guitar and gracing the song with his heavenly vocals. The third is a version of “star of david” recorded in a light house during a storm.We filtered out the wind and rain so it sounds like we recorded it in one take, in a room with a piano.  The last track is sanctuary from our first album (most people who buy this will be hearing als for the first time so will need a gentle introduction). It costs 5 euro and all money will go toward helping Lia to hold her head up while she smiles,

God Bless
