Elevens
About a year ago I approached the DJ in the Globe one Friday night to ask who and what he was spinning at that particular moment, only to be confronted by none other than Martin McCann – long time Sack frontman and all-round Irish music gem. “You’re yer man from Sack” I pointlessly confirmed. “And now I’m in Elevens” he replied, before kindly gifting me a copy of their freshly pressed New Beginning EP. Joined by Tony Barrett (Brilliant Trees) and Mark Healy (The Josephs / Jerry Fish & The Mudbug Club) Elevens come with a strong pedigree. Following three excellent EPs and a smattering of live performances, their impending debut album promises finely matured, acoustic chamber pop underpinning McCann’s always-perceptive musings on love won and love lost. Support tonight comes courtesy of singer-songwriter Paul Clancy. / Brian Keane
