The world's not round... it's Twisted

Things are on the up for Colm Quearney.

The ex-Lir man has been invited by none other than Badly Drawn Boy and Andy Votel to release a single on the duo's Twisted Nerve label.

The single, due out sometime in the new year, looks set to coincide with the release of Colm's current album-in-the-making – a record the man describes as sounding "vibrasonic, with lashings of heavyosity" (if that makes any sense at all).

Colm is also hitting the live trail throughout December, and you can catch him at:

Afterdark, Portarlington on December 7,
The Spirit Store, Dundalk on December 12,
Whelan's, Dublin on December 15,
Axis, Ballymun Arts Centre on December 19 (with Damien Dempsey),
The Halfmoon, Cork on December 21,
Afterdark, Portarlington (again) on December 26
and The Granary, Kilarney on December 29.
