Psych is the glue in Cork
I was at a couple of gigs last weekend and it got me thinking. First, Grave Lanterns in The Pavilion last Thursday, part of the Midnight Marauders series in the downstairs bar. This is the band which contains current/former members of The Altered Hours, The Great Balloon Race, Terror Pop and Agitate the Gravel (and...

Trumpets of Jericho – Tour Diabies
Words: Frank A. Bluff Following Trumpets of Jericho’s recent jaunt across Ireland as one third of the Certain Three Tour with Nanu Nanu and Si Schroeder, we’ve unearthed a series of salacious Tour Diaries which “they” put together – the definition of “author unknown”… I gave one of their videos a bad review. They respect...
Review: The Certain Three Tour, The Bowery, Cork – 18.01.13
Photos: Petr Stary I am not cool. I have never been and will never be (no matter how hard I try) cool. Certainly not cool enough for Friday night’s gig in The Bowery, where a bunch of über cool musicians came out to play….along with Cork’s coolest crowd of music lovers (who always seem to...

Trumpets of Jericho – Interview

Myles Manley & The Little People w/ Trumpets of Jericho – Fred Zeppelins, Cork, 21.10.12
Granted the jazz hands will be out on display next weekend, coupled with an influx of amazing talent, but it still hasn’t deterred tonight’s crowd from spending their Sunday night between the four walls of Fredz. Four walls that are about to be flipped upside down as Trumpets of Jericho take stage. Their brand of...

The Fall supports for The Pavilion
So you’ll have heard that legendary grouch/intellectual rock ‘n roll genius Mark E. Smith is in town this month. The Fall play The Pavilion in Cork on July 21st – it should be a hoot and a half. News reaches our news-hungry ears today of two local additions to the bill for that night. Trumpets...
Trum-O-Cho do Vantastival
We got wind that Trumpets of Jericho were playing at the Vantastival festival last weekend, so we implored the band’s singer, Tom Healy, to keep a diary of events – he obliged, handsomely After all that, you might say, a cop out of massive proportions. A week’s pay spent on an immoral fuel to get...
