    Free Music Monday 25/06/2012: Fred and Bob

    Today’s recommended free music comes from the awesome Dublin based four piece, Fred and Bob. I’ve been looking forward to to this E.P. for a long time. I first got to know the band when they came onto Culture Cafe when it broadcast on DCUfm. Great laughs were had with the Emma, Sophia, Gill and Neil.

    I then had the honour last week of giving Eagle from this E.P. it’s first airing on my last radio show on DCUfm. You’ll be able to hear me chat to Emma, on Culture Cafe on RTE 2XM this Wednesday at 10am. I’ll have a podcast up later too.

    Anyway, this awesome new E.P. was just released on Friday and is the first release in about eighteen months for the band and tis a cracker!! It can be downloaded from Bandcamp.

    Here’s the video for Eagle!
