One Irish album release I’m looking forward to in 2008, is Halfset’s Desire Lines (tentative release date March). I’ve heard a trio of tracks from the album and from this preview, it shows enough promise that a trip to their gig in the Sugar Club this Friday should be at the top of your calendar.
I have a pair of tickets to giveaway for the gig which also features the excellent Dry County and the promising talent of Carly Sings. Just send an email to [email protected] with Halfset as the subject.
Below you can listen to the title track from the forthcoming album. Another new track “Work” is also up on their myspace and is absolutely worthy of your earfuzz.
