Come On Live Long formed in late 2010. Having met through mutual friends, the band recorded their debut EP over a winter weekend in the West of Ireland just weeks after their inception. The result is the free to download Come On Live Long EP which can be downloaded via Bandcamp.
By combining the use of samplers, synths, ukeleles, guitars, keys and percussion Come On Live Long blend a common love for all things electronic with their folk roots to attain a sound that is both energetic and melodic.
Their second EP 'Mender', was recorded with producers Eoin Whitfield and James Eager at The Hive studio, Kilcoole. The duo have produced records for Adebisi Shank, Enemies, Owensie and more. The EP will be available from Bandcamp on November 2.
