Heroes In Hiding to play the Late Late Show tonight

Heroes In Hiding invade the nation’s living-rooms when they perform their new single, ‘Hospital’, on the Late Late Show.
Kicking off at 9.35pm, Tubs will also be joined by Hollywood stars Alexander Skarsgård and Michael Peña, and former Ireland international Jason McAteer who has a highly entertaining autobiography to plug.
A mainstay on this year’s summer festival circuit, ‘Hospital’ is lifted from HIH's soon-to-be-released debut album, Curtains, and tells a very poignant and personal tale.
“I was on my way home from a friend’s birthday party on a hired coach,” explains singer and guitarist Joe Caroll. “There weren’t enough seats so I was standing up at the back. I leaned back and fell out of the door and onto the motorway. I don’t remember much of the incident itself and the next thing I remember was lying on a trolley in the hospital in a neck brace. Luckily I didn’t sustain any lasting injuries but I was fully aware of how close I came to being much worse off. On my second day in hospital I heard a nurse using some sort of machine behind the curtain on the patient next to me. It was bleeping with two harmonious tones. Something told me I had to make a song out of it so I recorded it on my phone, which had miraculously survived the fall. A few days later when I was at home and feeling a little better I put the recording onto my laptop and recorded a rough draft of the song “Hospital”. The song is a document of my experience that night, and my realisation that life is very fragile and something to be cherished.”
