____________JUST NO
JUST NO are a Tallaght based band who formed in early 2011. Their energetic live performance and catalogue of impressive original songs have seen them play some of Dublin’s most established live music venues, such as The Olympia, The Academy 1, Whelans, The Button Factory, The Grand Social and the Mercantile. Returning from a tour of Spain in the summer of 2012, Just No gained the attention of Ryan Sheridan, whom they recently opened for in the Hill Of Uisneach. Their cover of Gotye’s hit “Somebody I Used To Know” seen them emerge as Ireland’s most viewed ‘Block C Live Sessions’ band with over 80,000 views, and earned them a place on the main stage in the Academy. Their impressive song writing abilities and unique sound have gotten them on to the Hot Press ’40 Hottest Up and Coming Acts’ list 2012 with the title track from their second EP and debut single ‘Feels Like Home’. Following their recent success supporting The Last Waltz in a sold out Olympia. Just No launch their first single “Where You Come From” in Whelans on 15th March 2013. “There is truth to the ‘it’ or ‘x’ factor, it’s hard to pin point what it is exactly. There is something unmistakeable about Just No they’re not imitating anyone so maybe that it is the ‘it’ in this case” -Music Review Unsigned “..these guys have got that spark that can’t be taught” -Jonathan deBurca Butler, Irish Examiner http://soundcloud.com/DIABLO DC
Diablo DC are a rock band from Dublin City with a penchant for hooks and melodies the likes of which haven’t been heard before! The lads provide the soundtrack for many a nocturnal activity… Formed via various reputable (and not so…) websites, Keego and Ray met with Gary and Pete, then formed a plot to straddle the world. This is the most vital lineup of the band. Pete spanks a groove over some slinky bass grooves while keego bashes his guitar, this is finished off by Ray’s dulcet tones… The sound of Diablo DC needs to be heard more than described. But rest assured when you hear it you’ll be wanting more. Diablo DC is the musical equivalent of Pringles… And after being played in cities from Dublin to Adelaide…..there is no stopping Diablo DC www.diablodc.com contact: diablodcrocks@gmail.com ____________
