    Hey

    Just wondering if anyone knows this Irish band, The Natural History Museum (terrible name, though they sound great). I've heard bits and pieces from them over the last few years, Carol Keogh who used to be in Tycho Brahe and Plague Monkeys is in it, amazing voice, they showed a video of one of their songs on Under Ether on RTE last week.

    The song on Under Ether was Billy Pilgrim, I've been trying to download it from somewhere, it's great, but it isn't even on iTunes. Anyone know where I might find it? Ta.

    I've been listening to them on Donal Dineen for about a year or so now, I really like them. Their myspace hasn't been updated in a while though.

    Agree with the choice of name too, it seems to make it near impossible to find any information on them online.

    I posted this in another thread recently

    Also if you're into the Natural History Museum, you might also like Angkor Wat which is the stage name for Niamh Corcoran a musician from Dublin. You can download her debut EP here for free, I think she has a new EP coming out soon.

    I've definitely heard that before. Went through a big Donal Dineen phase after i saw him at electric picnic so i must have stumbled upon them then. Very good stuff!

    I saw your one Angkor Wat supporting Panda Bear this year. She was much better than Kurt Vile (the other support act). Her performance was a little introverted but the music was great so i just may avail of that ep.
