No doubt about it, this fellow knows exactly what he’s doing. Kill Your Darlings is an impressive and auspicious debut.

I advise Bell X1 to hold onto him, because this boy can cut it on his own. While the jazzy piano shuffle of the song owes much to ‘My First Born For A Song’, its bleary guitar solo and ghostly backing vocals makes it closer to Cathy Davey. Geraghty’s voice is like a more rough-edged version of bandmate Paul Noonan’s – something that suits this song well. He even pulls off a finale reminiscent of The Divine Comedy at their most flamboyant.

The diet coke ad would love this: “Let’s hear it for the band member who starts a solo project!” That said, we’ve heard Geraghty’s sweet voice occasionally take centre stage in his day job as Bell X1 guitarist (most notably ‘Trampoline’), but this is 100% his own thang: he’s written, performed and produced it, and his mother should shed a tear of pride. Coming across like a blues/country version of Jack Johnson, it’s brimful of ideas which are combined seamlessly. Bodes well for the album.
