Dundalk, Ireland band BLIND PILOTS play melodic guitar driven rock, with occasional effects laden synths. Their music is influenced by Radiohead, Whipping Boy,the National and U2. Taking their name from The Cooper Temple Clause song of the same name, the Pilots formed in late 2004. They have made a name for themselves in their local Dundalk through sharing bills with the likes of Ham Sandwich, the Blizzards, the Electric Penguins, Driving By Night, Dry County, Travega and Delorentos. Also their inclusion in the IMRO Showcase Tour 2007 and the Jack Daniels Set 2007 raised their local profile.
2008 saw the band playing outside of their comfort zone with well recieved gigs in Dublin and Limerick city. Blind Pilots were also selected for the National Student Music Awards.
((look to www.nsma.hotpress.com re: our selection in the NSMA 2008 Awards))
Blind Pilots first demo was awarded demo of the week' on Phantom 105.2FM (feb '08)
also 'pick of the fortnight' by Jackie Hayden in HOTPRESS(27TH mAR. '08)
BLIND PILOTS debut E.P. featuring four brand new tracks is due to be released on the 21st of november......................

I made this album that maybe you’d be interested in. It has tall tales, big brass, quiet melodies and sometimes a pop song breaks out. There is a journal on my site of how I started it without a clue, lost faith in it more often than not and bizarrely managed to finish it - finished recording it, then finished mixing it then finished pressing and printing it. The album is called YOU’RE AN ELCTRON I’M AN ELECTRON
If you’re free on Friday 3rd October, check out my album launch in Radio City.
