Miles Graham – Give It Up Now
Fancy a slow-motion jog around Dublin?
Then Peter Cooney‘s video for Miles Graham’s new single will be right up your street.
The song, from his new EP All The Right Things, was chosen by Bank of Ireland to feature in their TV and radio ads.
Miles (top) says:
“Give It Up Now is about being free of the turmoil that comes with antagonism. It has conversational lyrics that give a fly-on-the-wall insight to break-up.”
Nick says: Take it to the bank.

Behold: the Ebussy – one of ten variants of a modular electric platform designed for short trips and city deliveries – in this configuration, a dinky mini camper van clearly inspired by the classic VW microbus.
Four electric motors (one at each wheel) provide 20bhp, roof mounted solar panels extend the range to 600km and the ergonomic interior features a steering column that can switch between right, left and central driving positions.
Yours for around €28,500.
