Cloakroom Q - Leave Me At Lusk Single Review

By

Art rock neo psychedelic 5 piece from Northern Ireland, Cloakroom Q have been wowing audiences with their energetic live gigs and their brilliant EP "Going For A Walk And I'm Not Coming Back" which I reviewed back in October 2018. Ryan Elmore, Daniel Havern,  Sean Hickey, Conall Coulter and Dan Monaghan are back with a brand new single "Leave Me At Lusk" which was released on the compilation "Scratch My Progress Vol. 8". The EP features songs from Cloakroom Q, Joel Harkin, sasha samara and Conor Marcus. 
Scratch My Progress is an annual talent development programme that offers 4-5 musical acts the chance to hothouse their talents through learning about the business of music, songwriting and performing.

"Leave Me At Lusk" is another mind bending track from Cloakroom Q. It transcends so many genres passing through punk, pop, rock and psychedelic funk. The vocals from Ryan Elmore are beautifully unpredictable as they change from one direction to the next leaving the listener with no idea of where the song will take them next. Incredible!

Foot Squeaker are a three piece rock band from Gorey, Wexford. The band is made up of Diarmuid Comerford, Mick Byrne and Mike Lynch. They formed in 2018 when Diarmuid and Mike wanted to start a band with one rule: keep it hard and fast. In 2019, Mick joined the fold and the band rehearsed for the next several months. Their first gig was at The Gap Arts Festival where they received a great reception. In January 2020, the band recorded four track at Hellfire Studios in Dublin. The first to be released will be the band's debut single  No Connection on May 29th. The song was tracked live during the recording session. The music video was shot on the deserted streets of Gorey within the 2km travel radius. Watch the video here: No Connection is a rip roaring hard rock song. The band's sound is immense with the bass being particularly delicious. The chorus is catchy as fuck and will be stuck in your head for ages after listening. Foot Squeaker are a really exciting ba

Logan J. Parker is a singer songwriter living in London but originally from Portugal. Logan is also a producer, pianist and guitarist with sound steeped in 60's rock n' roll, soul and blues. She is also a part of the musical wing of Extinction Rebellion. Her influences include T Bone Walker, Amy Winehouse and Leonard Cohen. Whilst working in a bank job that she hated, Logan had a health scare which showed her that life is short and time can't be wasted doing something you hate so that's when her musical journey began. In 2016 she moved to London to compose her own music which she recorded in a fully solar powered studio and through her own independent company meaning that she owns all of the copyright to her music. In late 2019 Logan released her self titled debut EP. She recently released a single from that EP called "Cry Cry Cry". Watch the video for "Cry Cry Cry" here: "Cry Cry Cry" is a bluesy jazz number.

DFI Renaissance - Crowbar Terrace, Dublin 28th October 2023

  Saturday night saw the return of Don't Flop Ireland after a lengthy hiatus. The excitement had been buzzing about this event online for weeks and the packed venue was an obvious sign of that. In the lead up to the event, there was abuse flying from all sides which helped to create even more hype but thats all part of the pageantry as they embrace each other and show love and respect towards each other immediately after the battle has ended.  The battles on the night included Kid B vs The County Hunter, Sea High vs Intimidation, RapThor vs Lizzie C and an on beat battle between Scauldy and JMAC. All four battles were very impressive and calling a winner in each is extremely hard. If I was to pick winners though I would personally have chosen Kid B, Sea High, RapThor and then I honestly couldn't pick between Scauldy and JMAC. All the battlers brought their A game. This was my first time at a live battle rap event though I have been watching them online for almost a decade. As a
