  • Bio

    "Incredibly catchy, absolutely gorgeous" ..Janice Long – BBC Radio 2.. "Brilliant…get's better each time you hear it…" ..John Kennedy, XFM.. "Sweet sweet music" ..Jo Whiley - BBC Radio 2.. Maria first came to people's attention last year with the wonderful single All You Need. She's recorded live sessions with both John Kennedy at Xfm and Janice Long at Radio 2, both shows taken by the charm and beauty of Maria's songs. Maria Byrne is an Irish singer-songwriter, originally from Cork but spends her time between there and London. Her uniquely phrased lyrics are based on intuitive slants on affairs of the heart and she even dared to bravely spin the lyric 'all you need is love' in a fresh direction on her debut single, with a vocal talent that not only pleases the ears but also charms the heart. Her second single "Home" was chosen by Jo Whiley as her featured track on Radio 2 live in concert. Maria and her band - The Broken String - are currently recording the debut album, ready for release in Summer 2011.

    Dogan Mehmet and The Deerhunters - Live at the Green Note, Monday 20th December with support from Laura Victoria

    Dogan Mehmet, along with his backing band the Deerhunters, creates an Anglo-Turkish, Gypsy-Punk style mix of traditions and strong acoustic grooves. A diverse mixture of Southern English and Turkish folk songs, self-penned material and driven tunes from English Morris as well as Cypriot traditions give Dogan his own captivating sound.
