The Clockwork Christmas Song 2010!

Well, it’s that time of year again, and following on from a tradition we began last year we’ve recorded a yuletide cover for you all.

This year we’ve decided to go a bit more up-tempo, and given the Clockwork treatment to Mud’s Christmas classic ‘Lonely This Christmas’.

We’ll be playing the song at our Christmas show on December 18th, where we’ll take to the stage to support the awesome El Hombre Jokes. The El Hombre guys have also recorded a festive tune, and we’ll be giving both away as a Christmas present to all attendees on the night. So be sure to come along for some Christmas merriment- it’s upstairs at Whelans, and tickets are €10 (present included!).

In the meantime check out the song below (right-click the title to download)- and keep an eye out for the accompanying video, which will be posted here very soon.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!!

Mike Hits The Campaign Trail

This week Mike took to the streets to help promote the Concern Fastival. Always one to sacrifice his time for a good cause, Mike helped Orla Murphy & Judy Kelleher kick off their ‘Free Hugs’ campaign on Grafton Street.

The Fastival takes place this Thursday & Friday (November 25th & 26th) at venues all over the country, with the aim of raising one million euro to fight childhood malnuitrition. Clockwork Noise will be opening the show in Whelans on the Friday, with Nouveau Noise, Patrick Kelleher and The Jimmy Cake also performing on the night. Tickets are €12, but admission is FREE for faster, so sign up here!

More of Mike’s escapades after the jump…

Tell Me Your Stories, Clockwork Noise.

So things have been fairly quiet on these pages for a few weeks, but that’s not to say that we’ve been twiddling our thumbs. In fact, there’s been some hefty leaps and bounds made in Clockworkland over the past weeks, with revising, refining, learning and discovery being the primary items on the menu. Here’s your taste of ‘up-to-speed’.
