Dead Heroes Club

Dead Heroes Club
An Irish Progressive Rock Band? Surely Not!
Almost certainly Ireland's only progressive rock band, DEAD HEROES CLUB offer us 21st century prog-rock. The band wear their influences firmly on their sleeve and yet manage to achieve an original and inventive approach to their music. The self-titled debut album contains all original songs that range from the unashamed progressive rock leanings of A Day In The Life Of The World and the moving acoustic charm of Sunrise On the Trenches to the sheer musical power of Falling From Grace and the epic A Secret Never To Be Told .

Musical Chairs

Musical Chairs is an experimental free-flow improvisation collective which centers around one goal: the non-stop creative search for excitingly new, beautiful music. Anything can happen as virtually all musical genres are eagerly explored and originally woven together in ways no one could have ever foreseen. In fact, Musical Chairs is about Amazement itself: the musicians and singers continuously surprise themselves, for they too can never predict what they will find or create.
