Hey Guys,

Happy New Year!!

What a month it has been for Connla! Let’s just say, we will never complain about Ireland being cold again!!!!
We kicked off our new year in America with our ‘Winter Tour’.

 

 

 

It has been a month we will never forget! We tried to capture most of these moments on instagram and facebook, so if you want to keep up to date with our craziness, go over to our social media and follow us there or sign up to our mailing list via our website! If you missed out, keep reading!

We Met amazing people:

Touring can be tough, but meeting such incredible people along the way really makes what we do even more worthwhile! We met so many kind, generous people. So THANK YOU!!
Here is an amazing sketch of us, that we were given from an amazing fan called Steve short. Beside is a picture with us and the legendary Alto Reed!

 

 

 

Snow madness:

We drove through some scary snow storms, not to mention having some snow ball fights!

 

 

Played to amazing audiences:

From sold out shows, to intimate gigs! This tour did not fail to keep us on our toes! We loved every minute of playing and sharing our music with you guys! We hope you enjoyed it too. If you didn’t get a CD… (As we sold out..wow!!!) you can get it on our website, which we have conveniently linked below: 😉

Took part in some TV and Radio performances:

We were lucky to be apart of radio and TV performances! At WDCB (99.9fm) We caught up with the beautiful, Maryann Kiefer. We chatted all things music and the lessons we have learnt from being on the road. I.E…. NEVER let Paul go 3 hours without eating!
She also found out to her surprise who has what on their IPod…. ‘I’m a barbie girl, in a world, life in plastic, it’s fantastic..’ Can you guess who loves a bit of AQUA???
From radio to TV, we headed to Kentucky to make our TV debut on Woodsongs. Playing 4 tracks from our albums ‘River Waiting and The Next Chapter, we were joined onstage by an insanely talented band,‘Steel Wheels.’ If you haven’t heard of them, check them out! You wont regret it!

Wait for it………..

Until next time….
