WHAT'S THE STORY? Irish shiny happy people unleash debut album. The Thrills comparisons inevitable.

TO BE HONEST? Blends Elvis Costello/The Eagles melodies and Beach Boys harmonising with plenty o' jingle jangle guitar. Anyone spotting successions of more than one minor chord should report it to the authorities immediately.

FOR: Hippy vagabonds living in gloriously green fields, baked beneath golden sunshine.
