Wanted: Fans for new SJ McArdle video

It’s one way of not having to pay for actors. The Drogheda-based singer-songwriter SJ McArdle is looking for fans to appear in his new video. SJ told Hot Press that he plans to shoot a video for one of his new songs in McHugh's of Drogheda on Wednesday June 18th. He plans a "live band" set-up and he needs 150 good folks to be in the audience for the video recording.

The video is being filmed by Darren Thornton from Calipo Theatre & Picture Company, winner of the best short film award at the Berlin Film Festival (among other awards) with Frankie. The shoot will have a full crew, lighting rig, etc, etc and SJ promises it should be great craic. It’s also quite likely that he’ll sing a few songs exclusively for the audience. So you’ll get to see a free gig for your services

Those interested should contact SJ at [email protected]
They’ll need to be at McHugh’s by 7pm. The shoot will end around 11:30pm.
