BIOGRAPHY
At the start of 2003, The Basement launched to a whole heap of praise from the UKs leading music press. In fact the whole country was getting a bit giddy for the Irish fourpiece. Then The Basement disappeared. Little did we know that they were working night and day on a debut album that is set to bring The Basement back to forefront of the British Music scene....

Hey Guys- Cool Tunes! Great Stuff!!! We just posted a little preview of our upcoming release "Springtime in Pottersville". "Daddy's Girl" will be performed live on Late Night Saturday to air on Nov. 17th. This preview is not yet in it's final mix, but we thought we'd like to share it with our myspace buds and get a little feedback before the show. Give a listen and let us know what you think. Thanks for the friendship. You guys ROCK!!!!
Alright chaps. loving your tunes! we've just finished some recordings and we're looking for a good studio mix engineer to polish things off. Is there anyone you can put us in touch with? we'd love you forever, Flyer
Hey Fellas, Thanks for the add. Haven't seen you guys live as yet. I think I helped set up Mark's tent at Electric Picnic and your man Oisin mentioned Mark was a guitarist... hope I got the right band. Anyway, now that I have had a taster of your stuff, can't wait to catch a gig. Do hope there is one coming up sometime soon!
