Okay, so the past week has been a bit hectic between rehearsals, gigs, photoshoots, radio interviews, parties and plenty of other things meaning work is already started to build up on me. So, as I have a few minutes to spare today here’s a quick run-down on whats been happening in and around KKM.
First up, […]

Okay, so it’s getting a bit ridiculous. First off, for the last few months “experts” have been predicting the hottest summer on record.

I’ve been waiting for the fourth Biffy Clyro album ‘Puzzle’ for a long time. Since I first discovered them through their second album ‘The Vertigo of Bliss’, they quickly became one of my favourite bands and I quickly got my hands on their other two albums.
I’m pretty sure I don’t listen to any other bands […]

The romantic comedy of sorts returns to Cleeres Theatre June 27th until June 30th and bookings are already being taken.
