Over the past few years myself and my good friend @rockyoreilly have been making a collection of songs called The Future in the Seventies. We thought today seemed as good a day as any to float one these songs out into the world for you all to hear. We’ve collaborated with some of our favourite musicians and with some of our favourite visual artists and we’re extremely excited to share it all with you over the next few months, but for now here a songs called The Blinding, available on all streaming and digital devices or on the link in my bio. Enjoy<br>
.<br>
.<br>
Also a huge thanks to @stephen_mccauley and @talldanhegarty for giving this song it first spin on the radio. Much love.<br>

An installation in Songwon Arts Centre helping with the understanding of hydrogen cell energy. One piece used a material called Vantoblack fabric which absorbs 99% of all light, felt like you were standing in a tear in the fabric of the universe! Great exhibition.<br>

It was an incredible and at times overwhelming experience to be thrown in the deep end and trusted with scoring such a fantastic script with such incredible performances and we’re really excited for you all to see everyone’s hard work when it comes out. I took this picture a few months ago at one of my little work stations at home where I’d sit and stare at all my post-it notes of scenes and try and weave together a cohesive body of music to help tell Davids story whilst getting to watch such amazing performers do their thing. I’m very grateful to have been a part of it and excited for the next one.

A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I’m a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald… striking. So, I’m on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga… gunga, gunga-lagunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he’s gonna stiff me.

Many of you will know how destructive and difficult it can be living with or around issues involving mental health and why charities like Action Mental Health are so important in providing support to those who suffer and a path to become stronger and happier. One in five adults in Northern Ireland will show signs of a mental illness, the prevalence of mental illness in Northern Ireland is 25% higher than in England and there is limited support or funding here to cope with it. </p>

<p>“What exactly is a tour manager? Well, traditionally it’s a person who looks after the logistics of being a band on the road. They touch base with all the venues and promoters and engineers weeks ahead of the shows and they make all the necessary arrangements to make sure those shows are amazing. They organise and calculate every journey, book every flight, hire every rental, check every distance, every arrival time, every sound check, sort every hotel, every early check in, every late check out, pay every toll, every fine, check every set length, place every merch order, organise every repair, find every lost bag, replace every broken wind screen, calm every upset band member, diffuse every back stage fight, moderate every back stage party. They manage, juggle and spin all these plates and many, many more all at once and silently keep the whole thing well oiled and running smoothly, and if they do their job well you don’t even notice they’re doing it, sounds like a lot of work right? Well, like we said this is the traditional role of what a tour manager does, but for the tour manager that has looked after ASIWYFA for the past 6 years, whom many of you will have seen in the shadows of our shows, all this stuff is only the tip of the iceberg. Graham Smith has been part of our story from the very first European tour the band ever did, he has gone from a guy we asked to take some photographs of the band, to our merch seller, to our tour manager, to our best friend and a lynch pin in the very inner workings of our band. He has shared every monumental high and every shattering low with us for the past 6 years, he saw us play tours to no one and sleep upright in rickety vans and he lit our way to stage in the Olympia Theatre this year. He’s been the first face we’ve seen after every show to say well played and give us a hug, he invested a constant and dependable stream of passion into our band and we are forever grateful. And so it’s with a sad heart, a life time of memories, a thousand wonderful photographs and a standing ovation we say Sláinte to our comrade as he moves into a new chapter of his life. To our friend graham, we salute you. The Rook is always with us. All our love.”</p>And So I Watch You From Afartag:www.asiwyfa.com,2005:Post/37251762015-06-02T08:03:06-04:002017-01-16T09:23:19-05:00This is me and my wonderfully Granny, she’s called Betty....<img src="//40.media.tumblr.com/98a22bbeb9acbf426bc13bed28e22083/tumblr_npbg56ttQB1u3swnko1_500.jpg" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" /><br><br><p>This is me and my wonderfully Granny, she’s called Betty. She is amazing. She has seen a lot of things in her life, she has seen a lot of change. Her generation can remember a time when there were laws in some places where people were not deemed equal because if the colour of their skin, where civil equality wasn’t a born right, is that not insane to think that it could have been that way, how much things have moved forward (in some places). So when I tell my grandchildren I was alive when two people who were in love couldn’t marry by law because they were of the same gender they will find it as hard to believe too, but I do remember that time, in fact it was only a couple of weeks ago but now it’s in the past, I’m glad i was part of the generation who, for the first time, publicly voted and spoke up to make that change for #equalityforall .History was made in Ireland and it’s example will hopefully resonate far and wide.

The album came out of a lot of ideas, something like 30 songs in total I think, our filtering system was pretty brutal, only our absolute favorite parts and songs made it through. It was hard to leave a lot of what we’d written off the album but what it meant was we ended up with something where all four of were in love with every little nook and cranny. We were invested in every second of sound on there because every part and nuance had to justify its own existence and it had to fit together as an album, so we have a bunch of left over tracks that we’re going to do something with at a later date.</p>
<p>It was a really intensive process; On the third floor of an old Linen Mill in West Belfast in our rehearsal room we spent the first week in January clearing out gear and building a small make shift studio set up to demo everything as we went, then spent all day every day just chipping away at songs for 6 months. We had blackboards on each wall where we would write all the working titles and songs in progress, then each song would migrate onto the next board as it got to the next level of completion, like a little factory belt, it was always exciting when a track made it onto the last board.</p>
<p>Sometimes it got very intense, It was like being underwater for a few months, like anything that wasn’t album related seemed to be muffled and a bit distant, i think thats why it feels so emotive to me when i listen to it, like all the songs absorbed that tense drive we all had making it and we wanted to create very strong feelings when you listen to it and for it to have a journey like feel from the first note to the last, like its meant to listened to in one go. </p>
<p>We just wanted to make sure we continued stepping out of our comfort zone, making new sounds, approaching how we arranged things differently. Our last album All Hail Bright Futures felt so good in terms of shedding that worry about what people were going to think of us and just embracing that experimental mindset and progressing ourselves, we really wanted to keep that mentality in what ever it was that was going to come out when we got in the room for Heirs. It feels like this record wouldn’t exist with out what we did on All Hail, but Heirs has taken another step towards something new again. Its sort of like the same chocolate bar but this album has a way higher cocoa content! All Hail was covered in popping candy and multi coloured sprinkles and Heirs is like an 85% bar of Green and Blacks.</p>
<p>Im very very grateful that i got to make this album with Johnny, Chris and Niall, they have so much ambition and drive and passion to do and make and see more and more its impossible not to stay inspired and excited for the next thing and the thing after that and the thing after that. </p>
<p>We hope you like it.</p>

He has such an ear for music and a brain for lyrics, he strings words and lines together in minutes to make these beautiful transcendental runes which are simultaneously broad and esoteric, I feel like his apprentice in a switch of roles, it’s great. We make a good team, music in one corner and a word factory in the other, it’s been a week I’ve been very grateful to have with my brother from the same mother.</p><p>It’s not all been music, we’ve ventured out too, eaten a lot of Mexican and Japanese food, walked up to the Griffith observatory, found the Bat Cave from the original 1960s Adam West Batman series, we had a drive around where the rich people live, eaten donuts at Mark Trombinos band themed donut shop, Donut Friend (I went for X-Ray Speculoos, other stand outs where Rites of Sprinkles, Poppygandhi, White Chocolate Stripes and GG Almond) and we also went to the insanity which was the NAMM convention in Anaheim. It is, dependant on how you look at it is, the gear nerds paradise or the physical embodiment a panic attack. Musical equipment on a scale I just can’t describe, endless rows of plucking, bashing, blipping and blopping, it was incredible/terrifying but we had been invited down by our friends at Earth Quaker Devices and got to hang out with them, so it was well worth the two hour drive out there, we got to see our buds at Orange and Taylor guitars before all the noise got a little too much and so we ran away bravely. Saw a few celebs too, Deftones, Butch Vig, Stevie Wonder and, wait for it…..</p>
