KAYDEE RELEASE NEW SINGLE ON 3RD JULY It's been a strange ol' couple of years for Kaydee. First they record their debut album, make a few videos, release a couple of singles and generally look set to take on the wiley world of rock and roll, then within a month they loose not only their bass player but also their lead singer. So with few opportunities for a two piece guitar and drum band, the two remaining members, Joey (drums) and Kevin (guitar) set about searching for new members and a fruitful search it turned out to be, within two weeks Mark was ensconced on bass and shortly afterwards Joey set about tracking down a vocalist everyone had told him would be perfect for the job. He did track her down and she was perfect. She is Tara. So with the line-up in place all they had to do was re-record all the vocals on the album , make new videos, do new photo shoots, rehearse and play live together ......... simple really!! But, with the type of determination that great songs give you, Kaydee rose to the challenge that would have broken many other lesser spirits. They released their first single together " Mr.Sweeney" and instantly had a hit, with loads of airplay, sold out gigs and numerous TV appearances. So now Kaydee were being a band again, releasing records and playing gigs, as well as encountering some pretty strange people along the way, including an African prince who having appeared on Kenny Live the same night as the band, took something of a shine to Tara and has since asked the band to perform in his palace for his birthday in September, an invitation they have had to politely turn down in place of their first visit to Japan for the release of "Mr Sweeney". Also watching Kenny Live that night was up and coming film maker Quentin Tarantino, in town for a festival, Mr. Tarantino has since requested any videos and photos of Tara and wants to know if she can act. But as far as Tara is concerned Hollywood can wait for a moment while herself and Kaydee carry out their plan for world domination, which continues with the release on July 3rd of their next single "Seven Days". As ever Kaydee will be supporting their second single with numerous dates around the country - Appearing at: The Halfmoon Theatre Club, Cork on Sat. 8th Aug. |
