The Sky From Here with Free Speaking Monkey
The Sky From Here concert series continues with a streamed live gig from Free Speaking Monkey
Free Speaking Monkey live in Leitrim and play new exciting, alternative, original music . The collective consist of songwriter Ciaran RockVocals/former member of The Pale, Brian Sweeney guitars, Dee Armstrong (also of KILA) on Fiddle and Henry Pearse on Bass. The band have been received well and their 4 track Ep {SIRENS} launch was a great success leading the band to play at the Electric Picnic, Knockan Stockan and Earth Fest. Highlights included gigs at The National stadium, Sligo with Damien Dempsey and Stoneywood’s Fest with Declan O’Rourke.
We were delighted when they agreed to be part of The Sky From Here music series and welcomed them into The Dock earlier this year to record a gig and also perform their specially commissioned song “Living in the pages of History” which was released online in the last number of weeks. The bands brand of music is eclectic. It has been described as a Genre of their own (Mark Mac (Palfest), Dark Beautiful Ethereal (The Star Newspaper) and Tim Burton meets The Pixies (Sound Cloud). They hope to release a new album and await the end of Lockdown to play live again.
