Mars
John Walshe & Hannah Hamilton

Swansong
John Walshe & Hannah Hamilton
Probably the crankiest musician this city has ever produced (remember Puppy Love Bomb’s ‘Dublin Is Dead’ t-shirts), Marc Carroll still manages to produce some sublime pop moments.

Spitting Games
John Walshe & Hannah Hamilton
Refreshing yet familiar, sweet but with balls and rockin’ in the best possible way, Snow Patrol are definitely on to a winner. Cracking stuff.

Fake
John Walshe & Hannah Hamilton
