Irish rock has been in the news with the tragic death of Gary Moore this week…but what about the new names coming through on the Irish music scene?
Pat Byrne’s one of the voices coming through. The Dublin-based singer’s song ‘One Of Those’ mixes 90s grunge rock with Irish heart and passion and has been shortlisted for a competition being run in Ireland to get a 10,000 euro video made for it. (Read all about it here and here) and you can read all about it in this week’s Hot Press.
Hot Press is Ireland’s answer to the NME, though it’s far firier and more political and we could do with something like it in Scotland…
Anyway, see what you think of this…
If you like it, support Pat and vote for him! I like the sound of the video on location in Barbados…if you can do that for 10,000 euros!
