Premiere: Núria Graham Debuts Connemara Video

The half-Irish half-Catalan composer Núria Graham debuts the video for her new single Connemara right here on RockShot Mag.

Right from the opening shots of this 8mm inspired film the atmosphere hits you with Núria’s really soft and beautiful voice casting a magical spell telling the heartbreaking story of a young man who takes his own life in Connemara, a region in the west of Ireland where the musician spent her childhood vacations with her family.

With lyrics like “I love you life, I love you life, but I am out of here”, the track is “an ode to a life that spoke of death” and is accompanied by visuals shot in the wild Atlantic region, with its many coves and small fishing villages and directed by Artur Tort.

Graham says: “At one time or another, we have all felt like we’re on the outside looking in, that we don’t belong in the reality in which we find ourselves.”

Her aunt still lives there with her boyfriend, a native fisherman who goes out to sea every morning in his wooden boat. This is the scenario that served Graham as inspiration for what is the first preview of Marjorie, her new album that will be released in February 2020.

Nuria Graham

The LP follows her albums First Tracks (2015) and Does It Ring a Bell? (2017) as well as extensive touring that has taken her from Portugal and France to Berlin and London.

Núria Graham next plays London on 26th November 2019 (Servant Jazz Quarters) and 30th April 2020 (The Lexington).

Tonight was a night of reflection. Of celebration. Fifteen years in, Bastille sound as good, and appeal to more people than ever. The fourth time the London band have played the biggest arena in the capital and they feel at home on this stage this size, with their visuals, their anthems and their devout relationship with their fans, they belong here.

Amy Macdonald Warms A Frozen Hammersmith Apollo With Heart, Humour & Huge Hits

“Are we having a nice time so far? Are we getting a bit warmer?” Amy Macdonald grins, peering out at a Hammersmith Apollo audience bundled into coats and scarves. It’s a question that becomes a running joke throughout the night — because despite the November chill and the decidedly frugal heating, Macdonald sets about warming the 5,000-capacity venue the only way she knows how: with humour, heart, and a powerhouse performance that leaves no seat unshaken.

Never Mind A Wet Night In Stoke, Bad Nerves Made The Best Of A Cold Tuesday Night At The O2 Institute Birmingham

Bad Nerves rolled into theBad Nerves tonight armed with a setlist built for chaos, and although the room was a little quieter than expected, the people who were there lit the place up. A smaller Tuesday night crowd didn’t dull the spark – instead it made the gig feel like a secret show shared only between the band and the diehards. And the band fed off it.
