INTERVIEWS / FEATURES


What happens when the heat and flash of California meets the cold and hardship of Alaska, what happens when the burning sun meets the sea, what is the sound of ice on fire? If it can be captured in song, then it has been best represented by Port O Brien. Drop-d caught up with Port O Brien before their Irish date last week.

============================================================

Padraig Cooney is the subject of this weeks Soundtrack feature. Having recently recorded an album Romance, Romance and released it as a full band known as Land Lovers. Still in the formative stages, the quirky blend of keyboards, guitars and heartache have been well received by critics and a new EP is set to follow in coming months.
