What Keeps Me Awake At Night
So, in a sharp 180 degree shift of tone from our last post, let’s get serious(ish). Let’s talk about sleep…. Or, more accurately, my lack thereof. “You’re a horrible person.”“I know. It keeps me awake at night.”Stiles Stilinski, Teen Wolf Don’t worry, I don’t think I’m a horrible person but I’m sure some people do…

October’s Monthly Round-Up
October is over and it has been a crazy month. Spooky season has ended and it is creeping closer to Christmas. We were in London and saw the wonderful Coronas, the ever fabulous Ruthanne in Dublin and I (Emma) got to see the kick off of the Wild Youth winter tour in Cork and hear…

Champagne Butterflies – Wild Youth Gig Review
That title is a track to listen out for. A brand new song (click the link to read a full review of the Champagne Butterflies single) to kick off a brand new tour. A song that I can only hope makes an appearance as a single in the future or on an EP because that…

Rewrite The Stars, a balancing act.
“Rewrite The Stars” When you read those three words together what comes to mind? Is it Zac Efron and Zendaya’s epic performance of it during ‘The Greatest Showman’?

Who Are We?! XOXO
We started our blog and never really introduced ourselves, so here we go! (And, yes, that title really was a Wild Child reference.) What’s the best thing before sliced bread? Niamh: Indoor Plumbing. It’s gonna be big. Aw Hunkules! If there’s a spider in the house are you going to kill it or set it…

Spotlight Artists: Hudson Taylor
Each month, we will pick a band to listen to and give our thoughts on so for our first Spotlight Artists, we chose Hudson Taylor out of a hat (or, to be more accurate, a pencilcase); so Niamh and I sat down and had a nice long chat about the lads (that we recorded) and…
