Roisín El Cherif – Kerosene
What you may need to know…
01. Dublin-based Galwegian Roisín El Cherif comes to the singer-songwriter fray from a multimedia background, including assistant director work on Brooklyn, Vikings, and others.
02. Her experience informs the video to single Kerosene, which she wrote, co-produced and directed with FailSafe Films.
03. The tune itself is a proposition seemingly made for bigger stages, which gives precedence to El Cherif’s voice, at once plaintive and possessed of certain presence.
04. Roisín is playing at King Kong Club in Dubland on April 5 and has a few live session vids upcoming via The OB Blog’s OBSessions series. Stay tuned to her various social media for more.
Verdict: Big, sweeping pop with an ambitious visual identity to match. Much here to love for fans of the singer-songwriter oeuvre.
Yikes.
In Galway this evening.

Galway city.
More than just a great place for guilt-free daytime drinking.

Galway are competing against Dublin, Limerick and a coalition in the southeast made up of Kilkenny, Wexford and Waterford to become the European Capital of Culture in 2020. Galway are the first county to announce a bid ‘Launch Video’ and I am delighted to share it with you guys…
FIGHT!

“Galway City Council is to consider providing €10,000 to local animal rescue charity MADRA (Mutts Anonymous Dog Rescue and Adoption) in a bid to reduce the number of dogs being euthanised at Galway City’s pound.”
“The Camus-based charity, which rescues approximately 800 dogs a year, already works with the pounds in County Galway and County Mayo to rehome dogs that may otherwise be put down… Supporting the proposal at Monday’s meeting, city councillors spoke about their own dogs, with a number also raising serious concerns about under-resourcing at the pound, which is served by just one warden.”
Mmmf.
Also: Yay!
