North Coast instrumental titans And So I Watch You From Afar have announced details of their next release. Posting on Facebook, the quartet shared the news about Jettison – a project they say is “unlike anything we’ve ever undertaken before”: “We’re beyond excited to be able to share the initial context to our next release, and it’s called Jettison.

We’d the utmost pleasure of hosting the debut Irish shows from Welsh noise rock heroes Mclusky at Belfast’s Voodoo and Dublin’s Workman’s Club at the weekend.

Extended gratitude to Belfast’s Oh Yeah Music Centre and And So I Watch You From Afar for the lend of van and gear respectively. Our photographer Colm Laverty nipped down to the Belfast show, which also featured sets from New Pagans and Junk Drawer.
