Pocket Promise – Talkovertalking
Download for iPod (52.8MB)
A candle burns brightly for Pocket Promise in Bandwidth’s black heart – truly the handsomest band in Northern Ireland at the moment. And in our subtle schizophrenic mind, the heirs-apparents to Deathcab For Cutie.
It all started with a little video for their poptatsic single ‘I Burnt The Roller Disco’ – followed by a stunningly lovely acoustic session for the Bandwidth Sessions strand. And now here is their latest single – the subtle, multi-layered and damn catchy ‘Talkovertalking’ (all one word apparently).
London nearly stole Pocket Promise away from us – then they went to the south of France (as you do) to record their first album with Gemma Hayes’ producer (AS you do) – but they still came back to us like a prodigal pet dog. And now they’re going to go far again – watch them run.
Pocket Promise’s new album “I’ve Been Here For Ages..” is available now on iTunes. They’re playing in Omagh for the Top Of The Town event on 28th August with Bandwidth groupies Colenso Parade.
To see them in Belfast you might have to wait till 24th September, but on the plus side, its will mark the return of the Student Unions’ free Radar night – and you can’t get better than that.

fantastic song, it blends well with the video. the blurred sun and schismed shots of the band show the importance of friendship and reflect the contemplation of the hard times they’ve endured. it works well as an ensemble.
