Lowli – Worlds Above Us
Free tonight?
Galway composer and musician Lowli aka Roisin Lowry (above) will be caressing the ivories as special guest of Úna Keane in The Pepper Canister Church in Dublin 2 this evening at 8pm.
Roisin is filmed playing live in Dublin’s Camden Studio in this video (above) shot last November by Dock Visual. She is accompanied here by Aisling Bridgeman on violin and Rob Campbell on cello.
Also on the bill is Stephen Shannon.
Nick says: Lowli is flying high.

Gerr Walsh – A Million Moons
Planet Earth is blue.
Dublin singer/songwriter Gerr Walsh (top) returns with a fine new single about “distance, memory and loss”.
Gerr’s yearning vocal and Max Greenwood‘s piano combine to create a real emotional kick.
The video, which was created by Gerr using stock footage, has echoes of Bowie and OK Computer-era Radiohead.
Catch him live with Alice Jago at The Cobblestone, Smithfield, Dublin 7, on April 17.
Nick says: Interstellar by starlight.
archmotors – Space
Up, up and away.
Archmotors are Sean Lynch and Gary Landers and this is the third single from their forthcoming album The Swimsuit Edition.
The quirky animation is by videographer Marc Corrigan.
According to the band, Space is…
“…partly inspired by Alfred Bester‘s sci-fi novel ‘The Stars My Destination‘ and partly inspired by loss, loneliness and months of highly irresponsible drinking. Space is a song about the breakdown of a relationship and how quickly and how far we can fall apart.”
Nick says: Interplanetary pop craft.
Stories and letters circulating about a coronavirus case linked to a band practice in Dublin are being described as “bullshit” by senior health sources. The hoax machine is inexplicably in overdrive. #Covid_19

Free March 21?
At The Sugar Club, Leeson Street, Dublin 2.
A night in honour of producer, remixer, songwriter and DJ Andrew Weatherall, who died last month aged 56.
Johnny Moy writes
Andrew meant so much to so many people, a musical icon for over 30 years, from his groundbreaking remixes in the early 90’s right through to epic sets, no matter what genre The Guv’nor chose, he would deliver a mind blowing selection.
The music world lost one of its brightest talents and most beautiful characters. This event will be for charity which we will confirm on consultation with his family + friends.
Limited physical tickets available @allcityrecords (support your local record store) or The Sugar Club online (at link below)
