This, when intertwined with the delicate fret board wizardry of new addition Kevin Gormley and dynamic rhythm section of Karl Zilizi on Bass and JP Donnelly on drums, combines to produce the signature Rass sound.
Performances recently as part of BBC Music Live and gigs in various venues on the local/National scene [ Mandella Hall, Speakeasy, limelight, Frontpage, Square Peg etc ] have seen the band go from strength to strength. Following the release of their debut EP Brothers and Fools.
Over the past 6 months, Cuckoo Rass have played 2 largely recognised showcases for Irish Music [The SoNi Showcase by MusicBest records and The Audioill Showcase by Audio-Ill Records] and have provided Support at the Galway Festival for The Revs.

BROTHERS AND FOOLS EP REVIEW:
Cuckoo Rass established themselves as not only a compelling live band but also as a cerebral recording act. The four tracks featured here are superb, veering with an exquisite balance between sparseness and lushness. Highly professional work, thoroughly recommended!!
Eamonn P Keyes, Sound Engineer "The Answer"
RADIO REVIEW:
I really like the Rass music. They have a unique sound too. Very easy on ear, I could listen to them all night..!!
Tracey Lee, TODAY FM Ireland
OUTRO:
With the craze of bebo and myspace - DJ's, Nikki Hayes [2FM] and Connor Philips of [CoolFM] both requested a CD with discussions of doing a live interview in the coming months
With the music industry taking an interest - you are loyal fans can help make it happen. Watch out for the first debut release of Cruelty followed by many more brand new singles from June 2007...
