Three-piece band delivering stark introspection via impassioned alt rock and power pop.

@edwinmcfee @TheSundayLife Many thanks for the write-up, Edwin!

[Edwin McFee @edwinmcfee]

In today's NI music column #NorthernStars in
@TheSundayLife I write about the debut solo single/singles 'Your Bitterness Will Break You' from @modernromeni member Thomas Lowry. Both are streaming now.

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

@edwinmcfee Hi Edwin, we just released a single and would love to send it over to you! If you could message through your email that would be great :)

RIP Mark Lanegan - the world has lost one of its greatest voices and songwriters https://t.co/StFte19rjT

Mark Hegan The Rising

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

Following on from my *ramble* yesterday, I am so pleased that we will be hosting two amazing creators @markhegan & @TheRisingMusic on Sat 29th Jan on our YouTube! Please consider joining us for some great music & chat!

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

We are starting a monthly Live-Stream where we host local musicians & artists. I'd particularly love to talk to artists & musicians who have made their art their primary income - to spread the word and to hear their story - please DM if you or someone you know would like to chat!

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

Who else feels like this? For so long I've been scared to attach my personality to our bands brand because I've worried people will reject it. Now I've learned people connect with personality.

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

Boutta spit some facts no printer - we never made money from recordings or gigs - we reimburse our expenditures a little bit by selling merch, if you are a band at our level that must be the focus

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

It's so easy to fail to break into a local scene, but if we try to find a space online I feel like it's so much more likely for us to find a niche

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

We spent the last 4 years trying to get local promoters to book us, and finally now we are open ourselves to an international audience online - looking back it seems crazy

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

We are starting a monthly live stream (starting next Saturday 29th January) where we platform not just musicians but artists too, so please get in touch if you'd like to be involved!

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

And maybe another NY resolution is to tweet more xo

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

Our new years resolution is to make opportunities for ourselves.

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

@seanmccmusic Congrats on the EP release btw 🤩

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

@seanmccmusic Glad to hear I'm not alone! Been thinking more about making our own opportunities instead of applying to things and getting rejected over and over lol working on a live stream setup atm, hoping to use it as a platform to collaborate with others, so I'll stay in touch with you!

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

It's #BandcampFriday please consider picking up a merch bundle - we just released an EP and its super hard to sell merch without the usual gigging opportunities!

You can get a CD, T-shirt, and keychain for just £10 😍

#Bandcamp

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

Been thinking a lot on how to collaborate with other local artists. When gigging it feels sometimes like we're contractors working for the same company rather than actually collaborating. It'd be amazing just to go through that #NIMP21 list and check off each band we work with

[Modern Rome @modernromeni]

Best part of the Eligible Singles List for the #NIMP2021 is how many artists managed to persevere and continue to create art 🤩

No-one should feel bad for not feeling creative over the last year, and there will always be a spot for you on next year's list!
