Sound like: "...a pulsating, genre-defying beauty, filled with inventive, erudite twists and unexpected, thrilling turns. As capable as filling a dancefloor as they are of sparking a thought, they're the sort of band that many an act will forever dream of being. Deeply exciting stuff." (Chris Long - BBC Manchester)

We like the name.

A good website for those studying music and looking for help on extra notes etc ppmta.ie (post primary music teachers association) and exam papers and marking schemes available at the sec.ie (state exams commission)

Just stumbled on 8Notes, a UK-based social network for musicians. You can upload your own music, share and download sheet music, and talk to other musicians via a lively forum.

They have a good-sized collection of not very printable musician jokes too. When I was learning classical violin many, many moons ago it was always viola jokes - from a quick glance round it looks like nothing much has changed...

Free Guitar Videos blog has a lovely video of some chaps using a tractor engine as a drum machine for their jam.

Just spotted Black Cab Sessions, a site where sometimes quite famous musicians play a song while riding around in the back of a taxi.

What else could be simplified by happening in the back of a taxi? Siestas, meetings, more?
