KCLR 96fm Irish Music Show w/ Roddie Cleere (8th April, 2018)

Young Believers debuted on Roddie Cleere’s Irish Music Show on KCLR 96fm in Kilkenny & Carlow. Roddie was kind enough to have me down to the station to talk for I guess…40 mins or so. We covered Unquiet Nights in general more so than talking about Young Believers. A lot of it was about how we’ve found different countries responding to our music, and the challenges involved with being a band who have to balance other jobs as well as music. It’s satisfying when someone with as much experience as Roddie does suggests that with some of the things we’ve got on our résumé to date, that he would’ve expected us to have been more widely known to the public. Back to Roddie’s experience for a minute. He told me off the air about times when Phil Lynott would re-do answers for him and ask if he knew how to splice the tape together so they would get a better interview. He also told me he would introduce me to Phil’s ma if we ever get the chance. So when a DJ who has been curating Irish rock bands since the Thin Lizzy days makes “Promise of You” his Song of the Week and says it should be getting heard by more people than it is, I tend to take a lot of satisfaction out of that. LISTEN HERE.
