The Cast Of Cheers. The band, not the actual cast of Cheers.
It can be really hard to think of a good band name. Sometimes its harder than actually writing the songs. Most band names are pretty lame. The Cast Of Cheers is either brilliant or fucking terrible. I cant decide. To be honest, seeing as I used to be in a band called Meanwhile, Back In Communist Russia… (yes the punctuation was important) I probably ain’t one to cast judgement.
The band are from Dublin and are about to drop their debut single*, play their first London shows and head out on their first UK tour. I hope that none of them are virgins otherwise that’s a hell of a lot of firsts to cram into one month…
Family is the first single and has already been picking up some nice spins on t’wireless, go on have a listen:
And here’s another one:
I’m off to start a new band. We’re going to be called Bouncer The Dog What Used To Be On Neighbours. We’re going to be big on the post-internet-dubstep-afro-beat scene. Our first gig was at the Shacklewell Arms last week, you missed it. There were loads of A&Rs there. We’re probably already signed. Sound Of 2k13 here we come.

Their debut album Chariot was released in 2010 as a free download. Excellent excellent album – Róisín Dubh album of the year 2010 in fact. The next one will be a monster.
