The iPhone Guitar Solo @ Oxegen 2010
Wednesday, July 14th, 2010
This year we had the privilege of being the first ever band to perform on the new Vodafone stage at Oxegen, so we decided to do something a little special to celebrate.
We kick started the song with a phone call and at around the 3 minute mark you can see the first ever iPhone guitar solo performed on stage at a major European festival! We’ve also uploaded a video of just the iPhone solo, if you want to share it with friends:

Rocking Oxegen? There’s An App For That!
Thursday, July 8th, 2010
By now I hope you’ve all heard the exciting news that we’ll be opening the Vodafone stage at this year’s Oxegen festival. We thought that this gig deserved a little something special so we put our thinking caps on – opening act…. Vodafone stage…. Oxegen 2010…. and then it hit us:
We’re going to do the first ever song performed with iPhones, live on stage at a major European festival! We’re still working out the finer details (and convincing people we’re not completely insane!), but so far we’ve managed to hook up this awesome looking iPhone/Guitar!
If you’re at Oxegen, we’ll be on stage at 3pm on Friday, so come check it out! We’ll be uploading videos from the gig as soon as we can so be sure to sign up here and we’ll let you know when they’re available to watch.

Spin 1038
Monday, June 29th, 2009
On Saturday morning we were on Plan B with Michelle Beatty on Spin 103.8. We had great fun, a 10 minute interview talking about the being the opening act for Oxegen 2009 (with the Artane Band), and somehow the topic of Lady Gaga going commando at Glastonbury came up too!
We did an acoustic version of Rise for the first time and got some great responses from people texting into the show.
Have a listen to the interview below if you missed it. You can listen to the full version of Rise and all our other songs on the music page.
