'We said we’d never play this...'

27 Jul 202010

Band members joined a stellar line up of Irish artists at the weekend, to celebrate & support the people who make live music happen. 

'As a young band,' explained Adam, 'You are only as good as the crew supporting you ... they will leave a bigger impression on the people you need to impress than you will.'

Bono and Edge performed a song 'we said we’d never play…'

 

 

Funds raised from ‘Songs From An Empty Room' https://songsfromanemptyroom.com will support two live events industry initiatives,  Minding Creative Minds and the Association of Irish Stage Technicians Hardship Fund.

You can find the entire two hour show on the RTÉ Player.

It’s nice to see how they know and respect Led Z. Wonderful to hear from them. Not an easy song, they’re obviously bored...haha.

Now there’s an idea!
Great Job! Now we want a covers album.. So many great tunes on Bono’s recent playlist ‘Songs that changed my life’ why not put together as a band, a selection of tunes that you all aspire to & record them.. How about it guys?

Beautiful version of a classic
With this version of Led Zeppelin´s classic Bono and The Edge show their commitment to contribute to a good cause once again. As a teenager I have already loved "Stairway To Heaven". The Edge plays on his acoustic guitar so beautifully and with much sensitiveness. Bono´s voice is very expressive and soulful.
