Leaving Las Vegas

Pedro K

Hi Folks. I'm posting to tell you about my friend's band, Leaving Las Vegas.

From their facebook bio;

"Formed in November 2009 Leaving Las Vegas is a Dublin based quartet forging shades of Indie rock immersed in pop qualities.
This up and coming group is helmed by charismatic frontman, Aaron Cranley who contributes lead vocals and guitar.
By his side picks bassist Shane Cranley. Shane also lends his baritone voice for backing vocals on many tunes.
Supplying decorative melodies is piano and keyboard player Ian Cullen who also furnishes backing vocals with another layer.
Finally keeping this enthusiastic bunch in check is the drum stylings of Ciaran Higgins."

They are friends of mine. The frontman and bassist, as you can probably guess from the bio, are brothers, one of whom has been a close friend of mine since school.

They have an E.P. coming out this month, and there are three songs from the E.P. available on their facebook page via the soundcloud tab.

If you have the time to check the page out, like it, listen to the songs and provide some feedback it would be greatly appreciated.

There is also a website under construction, which should be complete this month. When it is, I will provide a link to that also.

Thanks.

Please take the time to check it out!

Thanks again folks.
