Sister Lovers

http://www.myspace.com/sisterloversmusic Sister Lovers, Cathal 'chad' Brady, Ciaran Grogan and Michael Slowey formed at the beginning of the summer '07 out of sheer boredom and a common love of French Avant Garde films of the 1950's. We play all original tunes, caught somewhere between Sonic Youth and The La's. Sister Lovers recorded a 5 track demo in September 07 (The songs you hear playing now!!). There are plans in place to record new material very soon.
