Germany, run the bath, we’ll be home soon!

So if you didn’t already know, we’ll be hitting the road in Germany again later this month. It’ll be a stripped back affair but we aim to make it better than the last time we were over there. A few more dates may be added in the coming days but as it stands, we’re really excited about hitting our old favourite, Molloy Malone’s, as well as a load of new places.

I’m off to bed, Slainte!

In case you didn’t know, we’re on the road again this month. We’re heading back to our beloved Germany but we also have two very special Belfast dates lined up for when we return. These two gigs will be limited to 30 people per night in the very intimate setting of Graham House Studio. They’re two rare acoustic gigs not to be missed if you’re a Nordie!

New EP ‘Things you should know’ OUT NOW

The new EP, ‘Things You Should Know’ is out now and available to buy via Bandcamp. Hope you crazy kids enjoy! The Thin Air have already described the first track as “wonderfully delicate and understated”. Why not judge for yourself!

The beautiful artwork was provided by Jamie Herron.

New EP to land soon!

So we’ve all been busy here at M&D HQ for the last wee while, but no more! There’s a new EP on it’s way. We’re hoping to have it out within the next two months, just in time for our return trip to Germany. Details of the German tour to follow. Also Irish gigs coming soon.

Watch this space!

Devil Knows How

So if you haven’t seen it already, here’s the video from our latest single ‘Devil Knows How’. Give it a look see, you know you want to!

Marburg, there shall be no encore (unfortunately)

So it turns out Molly Malone’s pub in Marburg serves better pints of Guinness than any pub I’ve had the pleasure of frequenting in Belfast. Along with a lovely pint, the pub provided us with a great welcome and a fantastic night.

Thanks to everyone that made it down (beautiful people) and the lovely staff of Molly Malones. Honourable mention to the lovely Erik and Saskia for putting us up.

We aim to be back before the end of the year. Slainte!
