No. 21 In the Irish Charts- The River Valley Band- debut single KIMBERLY

No Comments

We would like to extend our big thanks:

To all in radio around the country, and to online Bloggers who have heavily supported The River Valley Band’s debut Single KIMBERLY, which has come in at a cool No.21 in the Official Irish Charts today, beating other new releases by MADONNA, MUSE, The Corona’s, Pixie Lott & Paulo Nutini.

Big up to “The River Valley band” who released their debut single KIMBERLY last Friday the 16th of October and then made its way into the TOP 30 Irish Charts today. With Instores and 2 massive gigs in Kilkenny last week along with a sell out show at Dublin’s Academy2, single sales have been out the door in local record shops and iTunes sales soaring.


Recent visitors to many local radio stations and also “Today with Pat Kenny” on RTE Radio 1, they made a huge impression on the famous DJ who said “The River Valley Band are Absolutely Brilliant- they will be pushing doors open where ever they go!”.


Their performance was heard by the Irish Rugby Union who then invited them in to perform at the Magners league Leinster game interval at the RDS on Oct 31st to over 18,000 spectators!

THE RIVER VALLEY BANDS- SINGLE- “KIMBERLY” is out on Oct 16th 2009

Text ‘music 3919’ to 57501 to buy on your mobile phone

‘Collectively made up of Danny Coady on vocals, mandolin & rhythm guitar, Eoghan Leadbetter on piano & rhythm guitar, Conor Brett on lead guitar & vocals,  Liam Teehan on bass guitar and finally David Thompson on drums & vocals. These are 5 young men with instruments in their hands and a recession at their feet’.

Described by radio around Ireland as “Absolutely Brilliant- they will be pushing doors open where ever they go!” – PAT KENNY RTE RADIO 1, “Absolutely Fantastic”- Dublin’s Country Mix, “ Class” – WLRFM. The River Valley Band’s music is drenched in a ‘semi-south American rock and roll country tone’, so do not be surprised of the fact that they are all Kilkenny-born. Reminiscent of The Band, insofar as it’s evident that these are five individual musicians working democratically, they are not led by any one or two persons with added musicians filling ‘roles’, but are a collaboration of ideas and come across as a rich and textured mature sounding group.  Their first offering – a full bellied assortment of deep rooted rock n’ roll is titled ‘KIMBERLY’ and has a release date of 12.01 am on October the 16th in the year 2009. All steps in their master plan for releasing their first album, Drunk in the Wine Cellar, in early 2010. The music for the album was written behind a glassblowing factory, with plenty of heat, tea, coffee, comfortable chairs and an ensemble of instruments.

Official TOUR: After a full house in The Academy2 in late September 2009, The River Valley Band came to the conclusion that the live circuit needs them…. A full Nationwide tour will be announced very soon on their website and will see the band play all over Ireland with some European dates too in November 09 right up till 2010. They play this weekend in their hometown of Kilkenny in The Bridgebrook Arms on Friday night, and on the Saturday night they will play in Ryans Back Room in Kilkenny after an earlier instore @4pm in Heart Beat City record shop.

For guest press/radio dj passes to their gigs: please feel free to contact me at linda@goodseedpr.com

Many kind regards,
