Just before Christmas, we had a ball busking in Limerick.ie city centre and later the same day in Thomond Park Stadium for Munster Rugby V Castres Olympique. What a great city full of friendly people up for a bit of craic! See you again soon.

People of Cork, you absolute legends! Your incredible generosity last Saturday afternoon resulted in our 60-minute busk in CorkCityCentre raising €1947 for #Ukraine. Thanks so much. (BTW if you donate via Revolut they double your contribution - turning this into €3894)

For those who like their live percussion and EDM Declan Pierce and the fantastic The Hit Machine drummers will be 'block-rockin' Cyprus Avenue tonight. Well worth the door tax: cyprusavenue.ie/gigs/block-roc…

Sometimes you walk off stage and know it was perfect, for it to happen two nights in a row can only mean you are in Ireland. Thank you everyone who came to the Cork shows. They are the last gigs I have booked in and they could not have been better. Thanks also Cork City Samba Band ❤️

Comedian John Bishop asked us to open for him at LATMofficial last Thursday & Friday night after he saw us busking in CorkCityCentre. Thanks to Caroline Delaney from Irish Examiner for this piece on a mad and fun few days... irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/peop…

We had some howl on Saturday at Clonakilty, West Cork, Ireland Old Time Fair with mini gigs DeBarra’s Folk Club, Shanleys, GG's Gin Bar and a parade in the sunshine to round off the day. Such sound, lovely people everywhere. Thanks for having us.

We'll be banging things loudly at Marina Market Cork tonight if you fancy a boogie. Playing a short stint on Cornmarket Street about 840pm as part of Cork Circus Factory's Pitch'd Festival too. Was mighty craic last year. #CultureNight #CorkCity Cork City Arts

It would be a travesty if the amazing Marina Market Cork were forced to close. They have been exceptionally sound to us by providing a rehearsal space over the last 18 months which really bailed us out during covid. petitions.sumofus.org/petitions/keep…
