WATCH: Delorentos perform Little Sparks acoustics

Some exclusive takes from their new album...

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 20 Jan 2012

With just one week to go until the release of Little Sparks, the brand new album from Delorentos - read the HP verdict right here, we coaxed the uber-talented foursome into The Workman's Club for some exclusive acoustic cuts from their latest effort.

Having embarked on a winter acoustic tour that took in Dublin's Unitarian Church among other unique venues, Delorentos were well equipped to deliver sterling versions of 'Care For', 'Petardu' and 'The Stream', all of which you can watch below aswell as a chat with frontman Ronan Yourell and bassist Níal Conlan.

Look out for a full interview with the band in the next issue of Hot Press, due out Thursday January 26.

Energetic, angular indie stylings and melodic, hook-tastic tunes are the order of the night. The band give a tight, flawless performance hinging on the formidable front pairing of Ronan and Kieran, whose sparring guitars and vocal harmonies are the act’s secret ingredient.

Something of a holding pattern for the Delorentos, with their album being rightly acclaimed in all quarters, the need to keep providing singles leads us to ‘Stop’. They’re still streets ahead of most of the other domestic bands at their level though and the Jape remix proves that they’re keen to keep moving forward.
