Chill by Clusterfunk (Newry, Ireland)

We (Clusterfunk) wrote this song in the mid-90’s.

I thought it would be nice to try adding some orchestration to the stereo track for something to do and also to educate myself more on computer based music, during the Covid lockdown.

Hope my bro Sean (RIP) and the rest of the band – and everyone else who listens, like some of it!

Orchestration sounds come from the most excellent Spitfire Audio.

The Morning After – charity fundraiser gig 28/12/2016

Lough & Quay, Warrenpoint – CMRF / Guitarist Ireland fundraiser night

Every year at Christmas time, the guys and gals at the ‘Guitarist Ireland’ Facebook page organise and run a raffle to raise money for Crumlin Children’s Hospital, Dublin. This year it was suggested that bands might run an event to try and help out so The Morning After decided to give it a go, on short notice.

With the help of The Lough & Quay Warrenpoint, the girls who helped with the raffle (couldn’t have done it without you) and everyone who turned up on the night, we did the gig on Wed 28th December and were happy to report that we managed to raise £710 for the CMRF Charity fund.

The total amount raised by Guitarist Ireland was over €20,000 so a fantastic effort from the GI admins & organisers, sponsors and everyone else who helped.
