Homegrown and chemical free

  



Greetings earthlings, 

I come to you today with some top quality music. The reason I wanted to share this music with you all is because it is music by two Irish bands from Galway (where I live).
I think its important to support your fellow people in their pursuits wherever you may be from.
Also, I know a lad in each of the bands so really I'm just fishing for brownie points here.

First up is  Rofi James 

Rofi James is made up of Ronan Flaherty, Jamie Murray and Evan Maloney.

Formed in 2012 the three lads have a unique sound, the drum box played by Jamie Murray in particular sets them apart from other bands. They're messers which make their live performances great fun, definitely no lack of energy from Rofi James. If you're lucky enough you might even catch them tucking into a post gig kebab up town in Galway at 2am.
Click here to listen to their new single Love Shot on youtube or here to listen to it on Spotify.
 Love Shot is now available to buy on iTunes.

The lads are also great at promoting the Irish language.
 Check out one of their songs through Irish here

It's a super catchy tune so make sure to check it out!

Next up is  Fellow Strangers 



Fellow Strangers is made up of Ado Lyons, Wayne Foy and Mike Burke.

Think Mumford and Sons mixed with Passenger and you get these guys. They were formed during the Summer of 2012 so although they're still new to the game their top quality vocals along with brilliant song writing makes them a must have for your ipod. What I like about these guys is that they don't know how good they are. Mind you, that may change! ;)
They're currently working on their debut EP and are hoping to have it ready by the end of the Summer.
Here's a taster of their music

Both of these band are made up of normal, unassuming talented guys. They're not manufactured bands they're 100% homegrown and do their own thing completely. Simon Cowell only wishes they were his puppets.

Now when the lads hit the big time you can be a hipster and claim you knew them way back when ;)
You're welcome.

Stay classy,

PS- That isn't Fellow Strangers actual logo up at the top. The picture is the same but the font they used is much nicer. I messed up the photo when I imported it and couldn't get their font to fit in so had to but in my own ugly one, my bad.
