“This is the first from a folk trio called Karmacloud, who hail from a combination of Ireland, Holland, and Denmark but met and formed in Berklee College of Music in Boston (aka the best music school in the world). Their Irish link is a certain Dan Forde, who’s previously played in Slow Skies and wrote the music for Collapsing Horse’s wonderful Monster Clock. They’re playing their first ever Irish gig next Thursday, April 17 in the Back Loft, on St Augustine Street, Dublin. Since they live in three different countries across two continents, it’ll likely be our only chance to see them for a good while.”

Dublin’s THEATREclub has been working with people living in Moyross, Limerick to create a theatre piece called Moyross.
Rapper Nathan Keane, 19 – whose song [written with Calvin McNamara], was the subject of recent controversy when former CEO of Limerick City of Culture Patricia Ryan requested that the lyrics be changed – is taking part in the production.
Grace Dyas of THEATREclub told Limerick Leader:
“The idea is that there is as much talent in Moyross as there is under the Hollywood sign. When I first got here I thought there was such a difference between the public perception about what this place is and what it really is. I thought, wouldn’t it be great to try and do something truthful, the reality of people’s experience here – and the only way to do that is to give them the voice themselves, give the stage over to them.”
Moyross will take place at the Lime Tree Theatre in Limerick from April 30 to May 3, as part of the Limerick City of Culture festival.

Wheely’s – a ‘bicycle café’ by the Volvo boffins at The Nordic Society For Invention And Discovery’, currently funding on indiegogo.
Maria De La Croix writes:
Today we are extremely proud of launching the world’s smallest AND most ECO-friendly café AND the world’s first open source brand. All in one! The concept is a café is totally enclosed in a bicycle. A fully equipped Wheely’s Café bike, including cups and branded materials, costs $ 3000. Less than 1% of what it costs to open a Starbucks.
We would sell jelly snakes and Lucozade from ours.

RTÉ reports:
“Pavee Point said the controversial removal of the two blonde Roma children, and their subsequent return to their families, has exacerbated Roma distrust of officialdom.
The organisation said it is leading many mothers of newborn babies to hide from public health nurses, thus depriving their babies of vaccinations.”
Increase in Roma children not being vaccinated, report finds (RTÉ)
