Sons of Southern Ulster

The flies and the cattle- bovine and bemused- by the brass buttons and the pale faces- and the last rites- oblivious to their heinous deed
Reorganizing books part 2. Eamon Dunphy bio between Dead Kennedys and Replacements makes a certain sense.

Cleaning up the bookshelves- rare occurrence- and lo and behold 2 copies of this classic by @johnrobbofficial.bsky.social One signed!! Time to get the latest Sons album to Mr. Robb.

Proof that the Jam were the originators of the “world music” fad.

Sons delighted to get a spin on the sublime Late Show with Mickey Bradley. Many thanks.
This new LP from SoSU is out nearly two months but has not yet been aired on the LSwMB.
Administrative error, I think.
The marvellous "Flash The Ash" is now sounding swell on the radio.

New @sonsofsu.bsky.social album is out and it's a cracker.

I've always had a bit of a Midnight Oil vibe from them. Relentless, spikey pathos.

Now playing. Magnificent as ever.

The reviews are in.
An album full of barely contained anger and acerbic wit, interspersed with moments of tenderness and beauty. I can’t recommend this album from @sonsofsu.bsky.social highly enough. Go listen

Great book.
Great London launch tonight. 40 + people, sold all the books I carted down and with promises to send more. Great discussion, occasionally heated. Thanks to Kevin Rooney for organising, Accent for the free room.

Always a joy to finally get the finished album in hand. Thoughts go to our dear friend Noel at this time. So sad he’s not here to see the finished article.

Praise the Lord- new Sons album imminent- and some other big news coming soon!

This truly is a fantastic read for anyone with an interest in Irish music.
Bumping this - if you're in Dublin next Weds, and you're interested in contemporary Irish music, politics and culture. I'd love to see you at my book launch. A book that's already a bargain will be available at an even more enticing price!
