LUCY SPRAGGAN announces Christmas Single ‘Drink ‘til We Go Home’ Out Dec 15th


For Lucy Spraggan, 2017 has been a year to remember. The singer-songwriter netted her fourth top 40 album and followed that success with more than 22,000 ticket sales across her UK and European tours.

I Hope You Don’t Mind Me Writing charted at number 12 in the Official Top 40 Album Chart on release in January. The album, the second under her own label – CTRL Records – was described as ‘a triumph’ by The Sun.

Now Lucy is back with the rousing Christmas single ‘Drink ‘til We Go Home’, sparking memories of great Christmas tracks from the Pogues and Slade complete with a catchy sing-along edge classic to Spraggan’s style. Lucy says, ‘I grew up on the music of Kirsty MacColl and wrote this song as an homage to her talent and vivacity.’

The single is out on December 15th, the same day Lucy performs to a sold out cave in the middle of rural Derbyshire. The one-off Christmas show at Peak Cavern in Castleton sold out in the first 24 hours.

The video for the single is out on December 1st. Lucy explained, ‘I basically got a bunch of friends into an empty pub, put a bit of cash behind the bar and left the cameras rolling.’

The results are perfect, with a video sure to get the country into the Christmas spirit on its release.

This Christmas, let’s drink ‘til we go home.

The FitzaFrenic’s announce new single ‘Brighter Days’ out Dec 8th

The FitzaFrenic’s announce new single ‘Brighter Days’ + Gig: Dec 8th – The Generator, Smithfield, Dublin €10 
Over the past three years Dublin natives The FitzaFrenic have built a name for themselves as one of Dublin’s most beloved street performers. Channeling the fun pop/soul sensibilities of musical luminaries such as Maroon 5, Relish, Third Eye Blind… this Irish band got tired of “playing for exposure” gigs and festivals, the band took to Grafton Street with their unique, fun loving, high energy performances and were an instant hit with locals and tourists alike.
Through busking they were able to self fund the recording of their second LP in 2016. In January 2017 they ran hugely successful Fundit campaign to help finish off the album. Followed by a packed headline gig in Whelans on May 11th and a slot at Groove Festival, playing along side UB40 and Primal Scream.
Brighter Days is the first release from The Fitzafrenic’s new album “Press To Reset”. A soulful, feel good track that encourages human compassion and people being there for each other through good times and bad.
The bands eagerly awaited second LP “Press To Reset” will be released in 2018.
