Having already received some nice blog love already in recent weeks, you may be aware of Waterford man Brian McCartan’s solo project The Casanova Wave.
The Casanova Wave’s self-titled EP is a solo project through and through: written, recorded mastered and played by McCartan with laptop, synths, guitars and electric drum kit. The resulting five-track EP is filled with promising, spirited electronic jams with a bit of vocodered vocals over the top occasionally. There are plenty of gigs coming up around Ireland this month and next including Roisin Dubh, Galway on November 11th & December 16th (as part of On the Record vs Strange Brew), a show with At Last An Atlas in The Mercantile on November 4th and much more.
Here’s the second track from the EP – the jaunty workout of ‘Kimota!’:
