SKY SPORTS 1 Italia – Storie di Campioni: George Best.
Last night there was a documentary on SKY SPORTS 1 Italia about George Best by the journalist Federico Buffa called Storie di Campioni George Best. You’ll find the Unquiet Nights song “George Best City” (released last week) as the music over the last scene.
I…. didn’t expect this to happen, but no doubt I have the official George Best page to thank for sharing the song last week. I’m guessing a lot of people probably saw this…?

Steve Ferrone on 2 Songs
Big news! We’ve been able to get Steve Ferrone to play on two songs from our forthcoming second album “Postcards in Real Time”, which is due out at the end of 2015. Steve obviously has a gazillion credits, but a huge one to me is about 22 years in Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. Special thanks to Steve, and to our friend Eric for making this happen.

Jun 2012 | RTÉ 2fm, Louder Than War & Beatwolf
What an Italian-Irish month June has been. I say so because as I was watching Rep. Ireland v. Italy in Euro 2012 last week here in my adopted country, and listening to the intense screaming as they beat us this time, it was only a couple of days later that I heard the altogether more glorious sound of RTÉ playing Unquiet Nights for the first time. … Continue reading
May 2012 | Transmission & Jefferson Was Right (video)
So we started May by doing some drum tracks for new material that’ll feature on the next release, which is still some time away obviously, but we’ll keep you up to date on the process.

It’s been viewed over 50,000 times on their website already.
