It’s gonna be a big 2018 for the boys from Tullamore.
Their timeline over the past 18 months has been incredible.
Formed from the ashes of a folk band that wasn’t working out in June 2016, Chasing Abbey have gone on to see their first single receive massive buzz and Irish radio airplay last year, sign with a major label (3Beat/Universal Music Group) in July after a good old-fashioned industry bun fight for their signature, and now, they journey into the new year touted by all quarters as one of the brightest prospects to come out of Offaly Ireland for many years.
To be around TeddyC, Bee and Ro is to know that their meteoric rise is borne out of hard work and dedication.
Clichéd you might say but the industry and public attention that they currently enjoy is a direct result of sacrifices the band have made and a simple commitment to work harder than anyone inside or outside of Ireland. Whatever they achieved to date is hard earned.
We digress. We’ll be back next month with the band for their most in-depth interview to date, so don’t miss that.
For now, we’re very pleased to present the exclusive reveal of their new video for their current single, ‘Talk To Me’.
Talking to JOE, TeddyC explained where the concept for the video came from:
“We’ve no experience of videos, we’re big believers in if someone knows better than you listen to them. We had our ideas. We got the storyline briefs (from the producer) and we moulded it to what we wanted it to be.”
“The production was big, it was an amazing experience and the three of us just loved it.”
