Tiny Telephone Exchange
Like an iceberg, Dublin-based Tiny Telephone Exchange has started moving from a concept of a band to a real live band with five living, singing and breathing members. Formed as a one-man project back in 2014, Colm Kelly (Lead Vocals/ Guitar) began the process of writing and recording the lead single “Quicksilver Star” amongst a host of other songs. In 2016 he was joined by Liz Jennings (Piano/ Vocals), Tom Doyle (Guitar), Dave Flood (Drums) and Paul McLaughlin (Bass) and with that came the first live performances as a full band at Vantastival Festival and Dublin venues such as The Bleeding Horse and Gypsy Rose. The songs offer familiar elements dressed in sometimes peculiar garb; strains of country, rock, pop, folk and psychedelia come together in sometimes surprising ways. Having spent the winter months polishing the rough edges off their live set, the band are planning to take the show on the road wherever and whenever. Watch this space as they say.
In order to become a real boy Pinochio has to rescue Geppetto, his father and maker, from the belly of the shark. Let's see what trials await us in our pursuit of reality.
