WHEATUS (USA)
Wednesday 19 September 2012 7:30pm
Wheatus’ debut single ‘Teenage Dirtbag’ cracked the Top 40 BBC Official Sales Chart for a second time in March 2011 and again this year in April – TEN YEARS after its debut at #2 on the same chart. To date their first record has sold more than five million copies worldwide. Any manager or record label would be happy to tout those stats to the press but Wheatus have remained unsigned and unmanaged for the last eight years. Wheatus continue to write, record and tour 15 years after their inception, having released five studio albums since 2000 and currently in pre-production for their sixth. Now Wheatus are heading to Australia for their ‘Still A Teenage Dirtbag’ tour. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FC3y9llDXuM

THE SONGS OF VAN MORRISON AS PERFORMED BY JOE CREIGHTON
Joe Creighton grew up in Belfast during the late 60s with a backdrop of the civil rights movement, riots, religious and social unrest, all to the soundtrack of early Van Morrison songs with the band Them. These were very exciting times and he can still remember walking down Royal Avenue or Ann St (Belfast’s equivalent to Carnaby St, London) and hearing the anthemnic chorus of ‘Gloria’ booming out of boutiques and coffee shops. As a teen he would go and watch Them perform at local venues and that early influence cemented his love for this style of music that is now reflected in his own song writing and singing style.
