To start things off on the blog I’ve begun with Oss237 recommends, a list of bands and musicians who I would recommend anybody to check out. The list of bands will appear on the right hand side of the blog, so if you’re ever looking for new music then just click the link and check out their myspace profile or website.

20bullseach-2.jpgFirst up is, melodic hardcore Dublin punks, 20BullsEach. I did a shoot with the guys early last year as they recorded demo tracks for their album, Lost Causes. They’ve since toured the album around the country and in the US, I would definitely recommend the album and will hopefully review it some time soon. There’s also some shots of the guys in studio and playing their first Kilkenny gig in the KKM photo gallery.

onetake-70.jpg Next up, Mullingar progressive soft rockers, Innate. First made an appearance with us at the 4th OneTake Sessions and set to return to KilkennyMusic in May. Currently touring their album, Sweet Mess, which I also hope to review shortly.

itchy-trigger-finger.jpgLast, but by no means least, on the list are local progressive metal outfit, Itchy Trigger Finger. I’ve been working with ITF over a year and a half now and currently have over 1000 photos of them in action, waiting to be worked on. With future plans of shooting 2 music videos, an E.P and website launch, a nationwide tour and complete world domination you’ll be hearing much more from and about these guys. Most of which you’ll also be able to read about on my chronicles about working with the band, the ‘Finger Diaries’.

So there ya have it, the beginning of the list. A list I’m hoping will become a credible source for excellent bands currently doing the rounds on the KilkennyMusic scene.
