MrNorthMrNorth MRNORTHSat 27 Dec 2008 Dolittle Presents MRNORTH MOVED FROM THE VILLAGE New York based MRNORTH make a welcome return to their native Dublin for a post Christmas show at Formed in Dublin in 1992, MRNORTH (Emmett O'Malley, Adrian Mordaunt, Oisin O'Malley, and Colin Smith) have had quite an odyssey leading up to the release of their debut record Lifesize. The four-piece, made up of two brothers, a first cousin and a next door neighbor, started playing together when they were young teens. After making some noise in Ireland, the boys left for Vicenza, Italy, where a producer was set to help them put down some tracks for a record. The band soon became local favorites and their three month trip lasted two years as they toured all over Italy and honed their sound. A chance meeting with an American manager led the band to New York City in 2000 where they are currently based After a year of gigging, building up a following and creating a buzz in the music industry, the band signed a record deal, and ended up in the studio with rock legend Jerry Harrison (Talking Heads, Live, No Doubt) - to record their debut album Lifesize. The result is a record full of emotionally driven, epic rock songs complimented most by the incredible unity and tightness of the band's four members. Charasmatic lead singer Colin Smith's vocals punch through every song and highlight the album's accomplished lyrics. 2006 saw the guys self producing, with input from the bands long time friend Steve Lyon ( Depeche Mode, The Cure) their second album "Fear & Desire" a beautifully orchestrated record, on which the band finally achieved what they've wanted to for years - a record that fully captures the massive sound and energy that pervades their dynamic live sets. Fear & Desire was launched at the Florence Gould Hall in New York City featuring the Greenwich Village Orchestra playing songs that were featured on the record. Sharing the stages with such names as The Who, Bryan Adams, Van Halen, Liz Phair, Puddle of Mudd Evanescence, Jet, and Sheryl Crow, among others, as well as a slot on Bonnaroo 2004, MRNORTH continue to blow US Audiences away with their extraordinary live shows and with a third release on the way , these guys prove themselves to be the ones to watch in 2009. http://www.myspace.com/mrnorthmusic Venue Information: Whelans More Information: http://eventful.com/dublin/events/mrnorth-/E0-001-018503674-3  Event by Eventful MrNorthSun 27 Dec 2009 20:00 MrNorth Venue Information: Whelans More Information: http://eventful.com/dublin/events/mrnorth-/E0-001-024924460-6 Event by Eventful
