From Cathy
OSCAR THE HYPNO_DOG AND OTHER TAILS!
Released on the 7th December
One Ear Up, One Ear Down is the promotional single but won’t be sold as such, just the album which will include it.Other artists on the album are The Divine comedy, Lisa Hannigan, David Grey, Villagers, Sharon Shannon, David O Doherty and Lisa O Neill. Also Graham Linehan (Father Ted and My Lovely Horse writer) wrote the lyrics for a song. All proceeds go to DID of course!
On the 7th and 8th some of the artists on the album will be performing on Grafton street around noontime where volunteers will be collecting donations and also selling albums and doggy goody bags for Christmas.
We are organizing a Vicar street gig also in the New Year!
Come join us and spread the news!
Cathy Davey, Molly (Kerry), Rex and Daisy (Mel) xxxxThis is so exciting! What a line up, every one of them a class act. I’m so happy for all the deserving dogs that will benefit from this. I feel a lump in my throat to think of all these wonderful artists coming out in force to support Dogs in Distress. They are obviously all dog lovers. DID patron Cathy Davey must have worked so hard to secure their support as they are all busy people.
Round of applause to Cathy for making this possible. Let’s all work together to make this a huge success.
I am totally seconding Justine’s post. I just got around to watching the clip and it also gave me a lump in my throat to think that all those fantastic musicians would give their time, energy and tremendous talent to help all those lovely dogs in need. What a wonderful gift. THANK YOU TO ALL CONCERNED. What don’t we do our bit and buy the CD as gifts for all our animal loving friends.
I think it is a big deal that Cathy is putting her energy into this for DID. I can’t begin to imagine where you would start. First off, the getting people to write songs about dogs (and dogs alone, no scope to pick something else like cats or rabbits) would be like giving kids an essay to do in Irish during the mid-term break. It’s a tough, niche topic there. Then the rehersals, the recordings, the getting up in front of people, the journalists. I’m wrecked just thinking about it!
We’re doing Kris Kindle at work and I was thinking that the album would be perfect for a colleague of mine who has 2 dogs, and guess what, I got her name out of the tin! what are the chances!!!
(OK, I did make an excuse and put back the other 2 names I picked before hers ). Fair play to you all, and thanks from the dogs helped and yet to be helped.
