Windings and Peter Delaney

Hey dapto1, (sorry ain't been in here it a bit)

Windings were savage, was a bit skeptical about the full band, but having seen them a few times now I think it really works.
There was a good crowd about, thought there would be a few more but what can you do ?
Have you heard their new album ?

Fuzz Orchestra was born in 2005, Luca Ciffo (guitar/voice), Fiè (analogic manipulations) and Marco Mazzoldi (drums) decide, while running other musical projects (Bron Y Aur, Collettivo A6), to start a band moving on different coordinates. Starting from radical improvisation, the band achieves to forge a sound which, today, is built on strong rock textures, guitar and drums based, on which a fluxus of outer sounds (old movies, old vinyls cut ups, noise streams and real time audio manipulations) ties and rages.
Melding Italo prog, kraut and stoner rock, Fuzz Orchestra follow in the footsteps of Zu and Uzeda as Italian torch bearers of experimental rock.

Support comes from Estel, a five-piece alternative instrumental rock band from Dublin who formed in 1999. Their discography stretches over four albums, four EPs – two of which were released on 7″ vinyl – and several oddities, including a series of studio sessions with The Stooges’ Steve Mackay and Minutemen’s Mike Watt. A fifth album is due for release in 2011.

Lamp & The Altered Hours
Thursday 24th November,
@ The Greyhound Bar, Tralee
Doors 9pm
Free Entry

While dipping their toes into a pond full of instrumental, polyrhythmic acts, Cork post-psych free-formers, Lamp are not afraid to add vocals and whack up the distortion when called for. Touching on Jazz in places, Lamp conjure up some brilliant musical templates and at times, border on the psychedelic and thread similar paths to innovators like Ween and Primus.

The Altered hours make psychedelic/garage pop music. It's hypnotic, it's magnetic and at times, trance inducing. At the core of this blistering psychedelic experience, there exists carefully crafted songs with lasting melodies.

Jape & Rarely Seen Above Ground
Friday 24th Feb.
The Grand Hotel Tralee


Since winning the Choice Music Prize in 2008 for the critically acclaimed ‘Ritual’, Jape has toured extensively and has been quietly producing an array of new material, songs that have been carefully crafted and have become the best of Jape’s career.

“I had thought that the follow up to Ritual was finished about three times so far, but I kept getting drawn back to writing more and more songs, trying to push my songwriting as hard as I could and see how many different styles and moods I could try out, to feel out the album. Eventually, I realised that you could just keep on doing that forever so I decided it was time to start letting these songs go for a walk around the place. ”

Jape's new album Oceans of Frequency, is out now.

Jape began making music in 2003. Originally started as the solo project of Richard Egan (The Redneck Manifesto, VisionAir), the band has evolved over the years into one of the most exciting live acts in the country, not to mention releasing 3 critically acclaimed albums to date - Cosmosphere, The Monkeys In The Zoo Have More Fun Than Me, and Ritual. Using an innovative mix of live instruments and hardware samplers and sequencers, the sound that Jape creates spans a range of genres and encompasses many different styles. From gothic to pop, Jape continue to surprise the listener with their eclectic blend of meticulously crafted lyrics and upbeat electronic rhythms.
