The Music Show – Reviews

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.
