Hotpress review of 79Cortinaz at Bright New Sounds final


"Is it possible that there's an Irish Mercury Rev hidden away in deepest Carlow? Certainly 79Cortinaz' lead vocalist Gala Hutton's haunting vocal quivar bears an impressive likeness to that of Jonathan Donoghue. But then again, 79Cortinaz are not exactly hidden. They have an album out (Hopioki) and 2fms Dan Hegarty has been singing their praises. As it happens, Drive Me Home and Deirdre's Song are celestial lo-fi lullabies, probably better absorbed in a dark room with headphones on than in a short live blast at a showcase. But they are good - very good.

"It's a shame we only got to play three songs, we were just getting into it" laments bassist Cormac Strain arriving offstage. So were we. The words "Criminally Under-rated" and "Best Kept Secret" get bandied about alot. If there was a more apt phrase to apply to 79Cortinaz I'd use it.":
