GENGUS REVIEW

This is a very good band with a lot of potential with some good tunes and with a hint of indie rock to there style
ICE COLD RAIN (rough mix) This tune has a nice hook in the bass line it gives the song a cool groove and adds to the melody, the vocals on this track could be better even if its only a rough mix.
YISRISALL (rough mix) Here is a great upbeat song reminds me of a old "JAM" number, very well composed with some great lyrics but yet again the vocal lets this song down too.

FIACH REVIEW

FIACH

Photo of Fiach and Michael Hargan at The Cobblestone on the 24th jan 07

FIACH is a dublin artist with a lot of talent both vocal and music, top class.

DIGNITY- A real summer happy song, vocal is excellent over the melody in this tune, a great rhythm strut on the gutair backed up by superb vocal gives it a feel of a soft harmonic tune.

TOO MANY YEARS- A nice laid back tune, vocal flows through the song like drifting over clouds, excellent voice, very strong and has a jazzy feel with a twist of irish trad.

REEMO LIVE AT WHELANS

REEMO

Live at Whelans, Dublin 18th/jan/07

As REEMO came out on stage you could feel the crowds anticipation for this band and for the love of live music, they kicked off the night with "WHO YOU ARE" the crowd went crazy, Tonight they were releasing there 2nd single "RUSHIN MAN" which is a great tune and played very well live, they went on to play other cracking tune's like "SUPERMAN" and "IT'S NOT ME IT'S NOT YOU" this band can really play live everything about them from stage presence to movement and they all get involved in backing vocal this is a rare thing in bands around at the moment, overall it was a great gig and a excellent performance from REEMO.

MICHAEL HARGAN LIVE AT WHELANS

MICHAEL HARGAN
LIVE AT WHELANS,DUBLIN,IRELAND
WED 03/JAN/07
(A true genius in the art of songwriting, excellent vocals full of passion.)
Michael really knows how relax his audience with his witty a funny comments in between his songs giving off the vibe of a true professional musician, with songs like "REMEDY" excellent rhythm gutair with bursting colourfull lyrics, the song went down really well. I had a small chat with Micheal before the gig and he told me he was really tired from all the traveling he was doing, but i could see no effect when played the night without a glitch and controlled the night very well, sadly the night came to a end when he finished out with "MEXICO" another track from his album "CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN US" a real moving tune Michael played the song with a lot of passion you could feel the energy coming from this song, overall it was a superb performance from Michael on the night.
