Who are Nassau"

Have you heard of Nassau" No" Well you should have.

Throw Nassau into google and you""8217"ll either get a hotel in the
Bahamas or a street in Dublin. Go to a Nassau gig and you""8217"ll be
blown away"

Its had to find information on Nassau and maybe soon they""8217"ll
post more on their site" but for the minute they are

""8220"busy recording the last 4 songs of a batch of 12 songs at the
moment.Call back soon and have a listen.""8220"

Ya that""8217"s cool I""8217"ll buy it" and if their 4 tracks online
are anything to go by I""8217"ll be calling back soon indeed.

From the easy listening sounds of ""8220"The hand of hope""8221"" with
its almost youth"full questioning" ""8220"Let it go" no"one ever stays
the same""8221" and ""8220"Your always to blame""8221""
speaks of a near future ready to be sought.

To the funky rock" drum and bass anthem sound of ""8220"The
singleton""8221" with the cutting lyrics" ""8220"grow up" wake
up" you""8217"ll never understand you""8217"re dreaming summer love"
reading a passage from what you thought was the good book.""8221" Couple
that that with the velvet voice claiming isolation" and you know this
group has a simple yet effective message to be that wont be forced apon
you like so many wannabe bands" but yet will claim their place in your
head thru seduction by their silky sound.

But Nassau aren""8217"t just an easy listening band" listen to the
first few seconds of ""8220"Blown away""8221"
and you may be mistaken for thinking you are listening to an early recording
of Therapy""8217"s ""8220"Die laughing""8221" "that""8217"s the second
simarility to therapy in this edition but I guess most bands wouldn""8217"t
admit it". A loud ruptous breathstealing journey through simple chord
progression with a gentle yet powerfilled riff take you back to the
early 80""8217"s when rock was trying to leave punk""8217"s shadow"
U2 anyone

One band" 5 members" one four track EP "The Hand of
Hope"" one new album" and one hell of a future.
