Hi Friends

Tour News

We wanted to let you know that the forth coming gigs will be the last we play in the UK and Ireland for a while. We are moving to Chicago Illinois in January 2010. The plan is to stay there for at least 12 months just being there and soaking up the city its music and its culture and seeking out the road ahead.

The good news is we are busy filling up lots of dates for late November and December, however the Belfast Empire show will be the last Belfast show for the foreseeable future.

The Government’s new energy plan must prepare Northern Ireland for a renewable energy revolution – that is the view of the RSPB as it responds to the Strategic Energy Framework published by the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Investment (DETI).

The environmental organisation has offered strong support for the development of renewable energy in the Government’s proposed strategy, recognising the devastating impact climate change will have on Northern Ireland’s wildlife and the need for ‘rapid and deep cuts’ in greenhouse gas emissions.

A ‘real boost’ for farming in balance with the environment for Northern Ireland

Michael Calvert of Barnwell Farms in Greyabbey, Co Down, is the UK winner for the Nature of Farming Award. The prize, sponsored by the RSPB, Butterfly Conservation, Plantlife and the BBC’s Countryfile magazine, is the most prestigious award for farming in harmony with the environment.

“I was really surprised and very pleased to win,” said Michael, who has been part of the Countryside Management Scheme now since 2002. “I would really like to thank everyone who voted for me – all 1,700 of them! It is quite amazing.”

RSPB’s first ever summer time survey highlights garden’s importance for biodiversity

It’s official - gardens across Northern Ireland are filled with all sorts of creepy-crawly, wiggly-wormy, sniffly-snuffly things. We can all do more to help wildlife thrive, even in small urban gardens.

Back in June the RSPB sent out the call “If it hops, flies, perches, crawls or flutters in your garden, we want to know!” and launched the first ever Make Your Nature Count survey, the summer follow-up to their highly successful Big Garden Birdwatch.

The survey widened the remit, inviting the public to record all the wildlife seen there. Not just birds, but frogs, hedgehogs, squirrels, badgers and foxes too.
