Glasgowbury Band #2




Colly Strings, hailing from Holywood/Bangor, Co. Down, formed in March 2010 Colly Strings are an alternative indie/rock band, with clever, rhythmic verses and deep hard hitting choruses. Their music has been compared to the likes of Biffy Clyro, Two Door Cinema Club and even U2.

Colly Strings fuse catchy guitar riffs and soaring vocal hooks which fall hand in hand with the pulsating bass and beat of the drums to form songs that are guaranteed to stick in the mind from the very first listen.

The band look to continue the momentum that has already seen them share a stage with the likes of Feeder, The Wombats, Twin Atlantic and Francesqa this year

Their eponymous debut EP can be downloaded in full and for free at www.musicglue.com/collystrings

Some bands I came across at Glasgowbury. Part 1.


Hailing from Lisburn, Mojo Fury (mojoFURY) have been kicking around since 2004 but only last year, expanded to a four piece.

Their musical style has been described as "alternative rock" with "progressive" and "hardcore" influence, and have been compared to NIN, Queens of the Stone Age and Nirvana.
To date, the band have toured all over the country and supported the likes of Biffy Clyro, InMe, Two Door Cinema Club and The Cooper Temple Clause. Their most recent album, "Visiting Hours of a Travelling Circus" was released on March 14, 2011, they've also just finished touring as support to "And So I Watch You From Afar" in the UK, that along with playing many summer festivals this year, the boys are set to be busy!

At the end of April 2010, the band advertised an 'early album version' of "Deep Fish Tank (Factory Settings)" on bandcamp (available as a free download).
