TLMT's 20 Ones to Watch in 2016

Worth

MM list 2

Welcome to the first '12 Tunes a Month' where we will be compiling 12 of the hottest songs over at 12HQ.   Please like, comment and share the playlist with your friends and have yourself a little party (12 guests max.).  Why would you want anymore... remember you have to do the clean up!  Unless of course you have amazing friends then you've basically got your life sorted out already and may as well stick your feet up with a nice cold beverage.  That would be better if we weren't in Scotland.   Knowing that sometimes things are better outside of Scotland (and the UK for that matter) the playlist may have so tunes from US artists but they are awesome and that's what matters right?

"Barefoot $ Free features Rarely Seen Above Ground on drums, a Duane Eddy guitar riff, a leery down 'n' dirty vocal performance from Mr. Fish. This is primal rock and roll with elements of The Doors, The Cramps, early Stooges, John Spencer Blues Explosion and a bit of U2's Desire" ~ Hot Press Magazine

I see my baby from stage left
He's breaking up a sweat
I see him dancing, flashing smiles between glances
And I love this life

I'm getting lost in the stage lights
Loving him so bright
Everything's easy 'cause I know he'll never leave me
And it's so good to feel it and your heart starts beating

Can you feel it now?
(He's singing)
Can you feel it now?
And I'm tripping over clouds, not coming down
He lives for the crowd when they're loving him loud
Feel it now
Can you feel it now?

I see my love up above me with his head in the skyline
He is the music and he keeps moving me to it
And I know we should take it slow
Back to his place we'll go
We already know

I hope I'm ready for it, I hope I'm ready for it
This love, big enough, gonna swing in to it
Ready going steady, are we in for the thrill now?

Can you feel it now?
(He's singing)
Can you feel it now?
And I'm tripping over clouds, not coming down
He lives for the crowd when they're loving him loud
Feel it now
Can you feel it now?

This love, big enough, gonna swing in to it
(He is the music and he keeps moving me to it)

Teenage Craze - EP

Feel

Krio Girl (Live)

Written by Blooms

Produced by P*nut and @Gillewis

Additional production by @kobina 

Artwork by Dom Sebastian 

Love (Prod. by P*nut & Gil Lewis)

Cruising's debut will be released by Tough Love on 14th August 2015 in a limited edition of 300 12”, with the first 100 on hot pink vinyl. Pre-order the hot pink pressing here -  http://smarturl.it/Cruising.pinkvinyl 

Cruising are a four piece from Dublin and Belfast made up of Benni Johnston (Vocals), Claire Miskimmin (Guitar/Bass) Neil Brogan (Guitar/Bass) and Sarah Grimes (drums). With previous/ongoing experience in bands such Girls Names, September Girls, Sea Pinks and Logikparty, Cruising began in 2013 as a side project for all four.

Named for William Friedkin’s gay exploitation shocker from 1980, the debut single You Made Me Do That (taken from the killer’s line in the film) dropped in early 2014 on Soft Power records and was recorded live as it was written. Practicing sporadically and playing a string of incendiary/chaotic live shows when schedules allow, CRUISING have now miraculously recorded their debut EP proper for Tough Love. Recorded in two days in a freezing railway arch studio (Dublin’s Guerilla Studios) in January 2015, and mixed at Belfast’s Start Together, the self titled EP shows the band in various guises, morphing between popper’d up Agit-Punk (the re-recorded You Made Me Do That, Woman), psyched out post-punk (Lifting), and riff driven bangers (Safe Corridor, Cutlass, The Spectacle).

Shows in Dublin, Belfast and London TBA.

Rosa Nutty - Fine Print

Le Galaxie -Love System (Single EDIT 2015)

New single from Maud in Cahoots released on September 25th 2015. Produced by James Darkin at Temple Lane Studios, Dublin. The track is available to download now - https://spinnup.com/gb/release/cure-for-the-crazy/

http://maudincahoots.com

Maud in Cahoots comprise of Dublin sisters Maud and Zoe Ní Riordáin, Stephen Markham and Alan Connon .

"Undisputedly one of the finest unsigned acts in the country. We recommend getting on this particular bandwagon early. If they become as big as they deserve to, you may soon struggle to get tickets.... - Hot Press Magazine

Combining luscious chamber-pop arrangements with melancholy melodies worthy of the most lovelorn of Scandinavian chanteuses, Maud in Cahoots occupy a point on the alternative music epi-centre. In September 2014 the band presented a music theatre piece at The Abbey theatre as part of the Tiger Dublin Fringe Festival. The Well Rested Terrorist was a unique piece of musical theatre, placing a live band in the context of a theatre that showed that this band isn’t afraid to do things differently. Maud in Cahoots released their single Greatest Achievement in April 2015 and following a busy transatlantic few months they are now releasing “Cure for the Crazy” on Friday 18th September.

Following an acclaimed slot at Electric Picnic Maud in Cahoots play a headline show at Dublin’s Grand Social on Saturday 19th September with special guest Cut Once .

SOME PRESS QUOTES

“One of the best sets of the weekend (Electric Picnic) was Maud in Cahoots…..It’s been fascinating to watch that band grow, develop and morph into something truly captivating with bags of star quality.” Una Mullally, Irish Times.


"Break out your calendars, gig-goers of Dublin, and mark in the date of the next Maud in Cahoots show in your diary. If you like to dance, if you like music, you’ll scarcely find a better act" – Goldenplec.com
 

****“Maud Ní Riordáin is a striking, controlled presence with a pristine voice...Maud in Cahoots present a ‘live concept album’... always absorbing; a painstaking work, given startling execution.” Peter Crawley, Irish Times.

“If Beyoncé patented the "visual album," then leave it to Irish alt-pop ensemble Maud in Cahoots to pioneer the "live concept album". Inspired by the phenomenon described by neurologist Oliver Sacks in his book Musicophilia, The Well Rested Terrorist casts an eye over the varying effects that music has on the human psyche. Featuring nine new songs composed by Maud in Cahoots, this piece stars the captivating Maud in Cahoots and Rory Fleck-Byrne as two subjects that can only communicate via the medium of music and explores just what music can do a person. Noteworthy for being the first Fringe show staged in The Abbey, the show places the band in a live context that isn't merely a gig in a pub. The result is a wholly unique meditation on infamy, fear and coming to terms with being yourself.”  Le Cool Dublin

“The Well Rested Terrorist reminds you why albums are things to savour and digest” Una Mullally, Irish Times

http://www.irishtimes.com/blogs/poplife/2014/09/11/how-to-present-an-album/

“The festival can also work as a stage for acts to re-introduce or unveil a new aspect in their sound. Alternative-pop band Maud In Cahoots were a perfect example of this side to the HWCH experience.  As captivating and uncompromising as ever, the group’s show worked to highlight how they have continued to perfect and sculpt their music over the year. More thematic, theatrical and tinged in indie characteristics Maud In Cahoots gave an intriguing indication of how they have evolved in terms of sound.” – The Last Mixed Tape Blog.

She's Voyeuristic

First single from Cian Nugent's new album, Night Fiction, out Jan 2016 on Woodsist.

Order LP: http://www.woodsist.com/catalog/12/cian-nugent-night-fiction-lp/
Order from iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/night-fiction/id1055416780
Order from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Night-Fiction-Cian-Nugent/dp/B017752Y5O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1454024492&sr=8-1&keywords=cian+nugent
Night Fiction is Cian Nugent's third album but his first taking on the role of singer-songwriter. Where his previous two albums: 2013's Born With The Caul and 2011's Doubles saw him exploring extended guitar based instrumentals with his band, The Cosmos, here he has reigned things in and focused his songwriting skills. Guitar fans, do not fear, there is still plenty of soloing and fingerpicking here. With 7 songs both solo and with his band, this album amalgamates everything Cian has done up to this point and reveals a more broad palate of influences, including The Velvet Underground, Richard Thompson, Television, Neil Young, John Lennon, Fred Neil, etc.

Recorded over a week beginning on Valentine's Day 2014, Night Fiction was recorded in Bow Lane Studios in Dublin with Daniel Fox (Girl Band) and mixed by Brendan Jenkinson. The album's seven songs include solo ventures as well as full-band recordings feat. David Lacey on drums, Conor Lumsden on bass, Brendan Jenkinson on organ and piano and Ailbhe Nic Oireachtaigh on viola. The vibe here is familiar yet refreshing and a logical progression for Cian.

"I've always been impressed and inspired by Cian's guitar playing; now on this album he brings his voice and stories to only expand that brilliance" - Steve Gunn




Cian Nugent - Things Don't Change That Fast

‘All My Life/Mariposa’, the double A-side single from Cave Ghosts, will be released through Road Movie Records on Wednesday 25th November 2015. The release will be available as a download and on CD from 
www.caveghosts.com, while iTunes, Spotify and all other popular download and streaming services will carry the single.

Cave Ghosts are five star-gazers playing shimmering nostalgic pop. Their story began when two small town dreamers living in a big city, Jen Connell (vocals/keys) and Aoife O’Carra (vocals/guitar) circled each other’s ‘Musicians Wanted’ ads. Bonding over a shared obsession with David Lynch, Wim Wenders and the bittersweet melancholy of The Beach Boys, The Shangri-Las and The Jesus and Mary Chain, their own stories of love and loss blossomed into their first songs. Their broken hearts club soon grew to include like-minded romantics Sundara O’Higgins (guitar), Jonny Fun (bass) and Maggie Fagan (drums). 
 
Blending unwavering voices, fuzzed out organ, pounding drums and melancholic jingle-jangle with a splash of summer, their songs radiate bittersweet 60s girl group naïveté and cinematic escapism. Cave Ghosts is the radio soundtrack to driving on a hot desert night recalling lost loves as neon lights flash by.
 
Off the back of two stand-out contributions to The Community Games compilation on Popical Island, and to Dutch label Candy Twist Records’ compilation album Nobody’s Business, Cave Ghosts return with their debut double A-side single ‘All My Life/Mariposa’ released on Wednesday 25 November 2015. The two songs are melancholic, sun-splashed pop that glitter against the backdrop of hot desert nights. Jen Connell’s voice soars over girl group chants in ‘All My Life’ while Aoife O’Carra’s sweet vocals swirl around brooding guitars on ‘Mariposa’. The singles were recorded and mixed by Ben McAuley (Sea Pinks, Girls Names) at Start Together Studios and Mark Chester (Ginnels) at The Pop Inn and mastered by Fergal Davis (Ben Folds, Sinead O’Connor, Fight Like Apes).

Having already captured hearts and ears at their performances at Castlepalooza and Wales Goes Pop festivals, and shows with PINS, Gavin James, O Emperor and Le Galaxie, Cave Ghosts single pre-orders are now available from www.caveghosts.com. Stay tuned for more info!
