» My Evil Ex
| Having supported both JJ72 & Vinny Peculiar (featuring Mike Joyce and Andy Rourke of the Smiths) on their Irish tours, Dylan & My Evil Ex earned the reputation of being one of the most entertaining and original bands around. The music of My Evil Ex has been described as “Nick Cave molesting Jeff Buckley” due to the haunting vocals, powerful song writing and energetic live performance. My Evil Ex provides the perfect foil for Dylan’s songs which range from dark and atmospheric to the subtle and beautiful. My Evil Ex feature’s Dylan on Acoustic Guitar and Vocals with Johnny B (Lead Guitar, Backing Vocals), Amy McKenna (Backing Vocals) & Ronan McGrath (Bass). Their current EP Approval has met with critical and musical acclaim leading to articles being written on the band, the EP and live performances. “Intelligent lyrics, finely crafted songs and strong vocal and musical arrangements…My Evil Ex are a band to watch.” Colm O’Sullivan – Red Fm. “If Jack The Ripper wielded an acoustic guitar the same way he wielded a scalpel, the result might not be a million miles from this…” Don O’ Mahonay – Evening Echo. “They are tight and proficient and proceed to woo us with a full, well-paced set of intelligent indie-rock.The fact that this reviewer came away from their set without obvious comparisons is usually a good sign. He'll happily give My Evil Ex a second look in the future.” Tim Peacock – whisperinandhollerin.com |
