    Competition: Win Tickets to Little Comets at The Academy, Dublin [CLOSED]

    LittleCometsWho fancies an awesome night out? Little Comets are a fantastic band live, I last saw them in April 2013 in The Academy 2 and loved it. This time round, they’ve moved upstairs to the main room in The Academy and rightly so.

    Little Comets just last week revealed details of their forthcoming EP, ‘The Gentle EP’, so far they’ve put two tracks from the four track EP online, you can hear ‘Little Italy’ and ‘The Blur, The Line and the Thickest of Onions’ in the playlist below.

    The kind folk at MCD, have given me a pair of tickets to see Harrow’s finest at The Academy on February 9th. With these new songs, you can see why the EP is ‘The Gentle EP’, the rio are showing a more tender side.

    But, I have no doubt in my mind that the energy and danceability of Little Comets‘ live show will have you leaving the venue in flying form. Put it this way, the track ‘Dancing Song‘ isn’t called that by mistake. Perfect way to shake off the winter blues.

    To be in with a chance of winning, all you have to do is answer this:


    If you were given the job of naming a new comet, what would you call it?
