Bands/Projects

These are some of the bads and projects ive been lucky enough to be involved with. They span a wide variety of styles and allow me to work on many aspects of bass playing.

Jennifer Evans

JENNIFER EVANS has recently put the finishing touches to her debut album with Irish producer Stephen Shannon (aka Strands).

Jennifer skilfully combines jazz, blues and dark folk influences into a unique style that’s ‘art rock’ while remaining soulful, ardent and graceful in equal measures. Emotional experiences and daunting but lush perceptions of being feed the debut album.

Jennifer Evans’ vocals are soulful and lyrically unique in origin, focusing on empirical knowledge, exoticism, a questioning of identity and home.

The album will be out in the Summer of 2014 on Delphi and is much anticipated after the excitement created by her debut EP ‘Salient Point’.

Clockwork Orchestra

Clockwork Orchestra is the moniker of Dublin based songwriter, bedroom producer and control freak extraordinaire Paul Mangan. His idiosyncratic brand of melody driven music juxtaposes hyperactive synth riffs, melancholic piano balladry and psychedelic string arrangements together to conjure up a strange land of musical toys and colourful characters. This bewildering menagerie of sound serves as a suitably absurd backdrop for Mangan’s wide-eyed vocal stylings and nursery rhyme lyricism.
