First off, Happy New Year!

A song of ours entitled 'All The Love Songs' is going to appear on a new compilation album that has been put together by Gohan Records, Noel Hogan of The Cranberries record label.

We recorded the song with Nick Seymour of Crowded House and it's a little different in style from the songs that appeared on our debut album 'Exit Here'.

The title of the compilation album is 'ToneList'. It is a  compilation of the best bands in Limerick

Be sure to check it out when it's released!
Love & Light

On behalf myself and the rest of the guys in the band, I would like to thank every last one of you for making our last show this year a SELL OUT!
We were blown away by the response!
It was great to celebrate the album and the last 18 months of hard work with our fans, friends and family in our home town.

Thanks guys for an amazing night that I wont forget for a long time!

 Also a big shout out to Walter Mitty & The Realists and Brendan Markham for play such blinding sets - Superb fellas, as always!

Now its back to writing and recording new material for the next release.
It was great to get such great feedback on the new songs that we played, so we are really looking forward to getting them down and moving forward.

Look out for videos and pics from last nights show.

Thanks again
Shane

Vesta Varro are going to CANADA and we need your help. The band has a video for the new single BELIEVE on MUCHMUSIC - CANADA'S BIGGEST MUSIC STATION (like MTV) and we can stay on MUCH if you help us out by requesting the video. Please not only submit a request but tell your friends to request the video.

If we all put in an effort and submit requests to Much Music, Vesta Varro may just get their video onto the charts. This would be a big boost for the band and might just help us climb that ladder of success in CANADA!

Thanks Guys!
