Cloud Castle Lake
Cloud Castle Lake comprises of James O'Donohoe, Rory O'Connor, Daniel McAuley and Brendan Jenkinson. The four met in school and despite their varying musical styles, started playing together. Soon Cloud Castle Lake were playing regular club nights in Dublin and, much to their excitment, had secured a spot in the lineup at Castlepalooza in Charleville Castle, Co. Offaly. The following month the band played a headline slot in The Village and since then, have been playing shows all over Dublin and have been privileged to support some of Ireland's finest acts;
Green Lights, Twinkranes, Funeral suits. Including overseas bands;
Murder By Death (USA), Erland and The Carnival(UK), Johnny Foreigner(UK).
Their Debut release "A Wolf Howling" 7" single is due for vinyl release and digital download in September 2010.
"Lush electronic rock with beguiling oddball flourishes and fringes from four members of Vladimir Nabokov’s Dublin fanclub." www.myspace.com/cloudcastlelakeband.
- Jim Carroll- The Irish Times.
"Cloud Castle Lake play the Village, wonderfully dreamy electronica rock from Dublin, actually to hell with Tokyo Police Club, this is Drop-d's gig of the week, but don't tell anyone about this band, they'll be our little secret." (DROP-D)
"Next on the list were Cloud Castle Lake in Le Boudoir stage and I was so glad I managed to catch their set. They have one song on MySpace, recorded two years ago * STOP THE BLOG! BRAND NEW DEMO JUST ADDED ON MYSPACE! * and don’t seem to Do gigs, for some mystifying reason. They must start as they’re fucking fabulous, drifting from dreamy awareness to post-rock essence. Anyone for a campaign of harrassment to get them on the live circuit?" ( HOTPRESS )
