I first featured Marc Carroll back in May, and this is the second single to be taken from his forthcoming album, Dust of Rumour. It’s even better than the first, a proper summer feel-good track.

Just two days to go and we’ve managed to secure some of the best live music around for Saturday night’s Blog Off!?

A thoughtful look at the BBC Trust’s proposal to close the Beeb’s digital alternative radio station and its possible repercussions…

We’re bringing three amazing new bands together to play one amazing night at London’s Roundhouse studios in two weeks time. You should come along.

“I have a punk ethic with folk roots. That spirit was put into me. Because I grew up in Dublin people always say, “Oh, U2 must have had a profound impact on you’, but they didn’t. I got into The Clash, Stiff Little Fingers, The Undertones, Christy Moore and The Dubliners. I always felt Stiff Little Fingers and Luke Kelly said more about my life than any U2 record. Everything I do or ever have done has been very deeply rooted in the spirit and tradition of Folk music.” Marc Carroll, March 2009
Marc Carroll is a very interesting guy. Whilst he hasn’t sold a bucket load of albums, he’s managed to gain Bob Dylan and Brian Wilson as fans – what more could a guy want?
Check out the video for Love Will Rule Our Hearts below. It’s taken from his forthcoming album, The Dust Of Rumour which is out on 29th June.
