About Me
Once upon a time a couple of guys, who were up to no good, started making trouble in the neighbourhood. They got in one little fight and their moms got scared, so they started a band.
My Corduroy are 5 aggressive, alpha dominant apes from Tipperary. Some people describe our music as terrible (these people are currently being hunted down and shot!!). While other strange beings describe our sound as alternative, new wave, rock.
The band relies on hours of previous conditioning from spacing out in our bedrooms listening to bands ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous. Anything from Arcade Fire, Modest Mouse, The Can, Stone Roses to Interpol, Mercury rev, and the Smashing Pumpkins can be heard in our music.
But it's not just the carbon copying of our musical influences alone that keeps our band going. Movies, comic books, facial hair, monsters, stick men and the mighty buck all have their part to play.

So what exactly have we done??
The highlights of our short musical journey so far have included appearances on this years IMRO showcase tour, headlining the Cork Rocks showcase, reaching the Global Battle of the Bands final, playing in the EMM festival, having the fourth most downloaded song ever and being the sixth most popular artist on Irelands top underground MP3 chart website - CPU, playing at the Hard Working Class Heroes festival, playing all the good, the bad and the ugly venues all over Ireland, hearing our songs played on national radio for the first time, hearing our songs played on radio for the umpteenth time. The people we have met and the good times we have had. All this before we have even released our debut single!
Speaking of the debut single, it is called 'Kings of the Food Chain' and has been pencilled in for an August release.
