Here are some clips of us playing our version of Insomnia over the last year or two.
Insomnia by UK dance act was released on 27 November 1995 and has remained one of the most played EDM classics of all time.
We wrote our own jazzy 'rework' of it and as soon as we hit that catchy hook it always gets a big crowd reaction.
Much love and respect to Faithless band members Sister Bliss, Rollo (whose maternal grandparents were from County Limerick and County Monaghan) and the late great Maxi Jazz for giving this absolute belter to the world!
Some fun scenes from our gig at The Pav for the Cork Jazz Festival.
To everyone who came: míle buíochas, merci beaucoup, muito obrigado, muchas gracias, grazie mille, बहुत धन्यवाद, mulțumesc foarte mult, hartelijk dank, vielen Dank, dziękuję bardzo, شكراً جزيلاً ❤️
Our next gig is an outdoor stage gig at South Main Street in Cork City on Sat 6 Dec at 6.15pm.
