Happy Album release day everyone (the new album is released in Ireland today) and we’ve picked up great reviews in the last few days in Ireland with a 4 star review in Irish Mail On Sunday yesterday, a lovely 3 star review from Joe Breen in The Ticket/Irish Times on Friday and an 8/10 review in Hot Press last week…I’ll post those (plus all the UK reviews) on the website soon…

Don’t forget we’re on tour in Ireland starting this Thursday 7th Feb at The Spirit Store in Dundalk…full details on tour page…

Well, we made it through to Dublin ok and appeared on the biggest TV show the band has done to date…great timing too ahead of the upcoming Irish Tour dates (Feb 7th to 16th)…and a great reaction from people on twitter/facebook afterwards…Here’s the whole show (will try and get the clip by itself soon) – we’re on at 1 hour and 5 mins…check it out…

Great news from STFU…we’re appearing live on RTE 1’s famous and prestigious TV Show ‘The Late Late Show’ (the world’s longest running chat show)…the show begins at 9:30pm and runs through to 11:30pm…no news on other guests yet but we’ll be updating website/facebook/twitter with any info as we have it…

Here’s a link to the show’s website http://www.rte.ie/tv/latelate/index.html

And to their Twitter account https://twitter.com/RTELateLateShow

You’ll have to watch the show to find out the song we’ll be performing…thanks to Ann Marie Walsh our PR in Ireland for doing years of organising to make this happen, Betty Purcell for her help at RTE and all at The Late Late Show for kindly inviting us on to the show…
