The Music Show – Reviews
Sunday, October 11th, 2009
The gig in the RDS was a huge success! It’s a week later and we’re still buzzing with excitement! We want to thank everyone who came along, supported us and danced their hearts out! The reviews so far have been great, and we thought you might like to see a few:
From Hotpress magazine:
“The Brilliant Things played to a thronged arena and went down a storm, with Marie Junior giving it loads upfront and co-conspirator Greg French more than looking the part in eyeliner and natty threads. If the ecstatic crowd reaction is anything to go by, electro pop is back in Ireland, especially when it’s delivered with this kind of energy and musical smarts! The Brilliant Things are looking like the real thing!”
The Irish culture website, culch.ie, has two reviews, one by Eoin and one by Darragh.
… the band took to the stage with as much energy as I have ever seen them (or any other band, for that matter), display, blasting through their twenty minute set.
Since first coming across them opening the Oxegen Festival on the Main Stage with the Artane Band this summer, their music has really struck a chord. Their upbeat tunes are a perfect mix of sweet well-pitched vocals from Marie Jr. and just-so lyrics from Greg French.

The Academy with Carolina Liar
Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009
We recently played two great gigs in the Academy – the first supporting Carolina Liar and the second downstairs at The Once A Month Club. Both gigs went really, really well and we had a brilliant time.
Luckily for us there were some great photographers in the crowd too! Here are some of the excellent pics they took:

The Once A Month Club
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009
Tomorrow night (Thursday 10th September) we’re playing in The Academy 2 supporting Fight Like Apes. Needless to say, we’re very excited! So to celebrate we’ve decided to make a playlist with the some tracks from each of the bands playing at the gig (FLA, ourselves, Bitches With Wolves and The Holy Roman Army). This should either get you in the mood and let you know what to expect if you’re coming along, or show you what you’re missing!
