secret fireworks

a music blog with a northern irish twist

 

holy moly....

I restarted Secret Fireworks three weeks ago today, and decided to make a bit more effort into regular updates. I wasn't really expecting more than 10 visitors within a month, and that was the best case scenario- it was always going to be just a bit of fun. However, over the last twelve days 70 people have visited SF, which is pretty staggering, and I just want to say thank you to everyone who has. I'd write the articles anyway, but knowing someone on the off chance might be reading them makes it all the more worthwhile, so cheers!

Part of the increase in traffic has been due to the wonderful efforts of Chris from Wired Up, a Northern Irish music blog aggregator, that SF features in. He's put hours of work into his wee project and his own blog is superb. Check it out in the blog list at the side: a number of much more talented writers are featured on the site and I'd advise you to check it out.

I've chanced my arm and a couple of wonderful opportunities have come my way. Over the next two weeks we'll have interviews from not only The Jane Bradfords (woo), Heliopause (woohoo) and The Lowly Knights (woohoo!) but an exclusive (for the time being, at least) download of an acoustic Heliopause EP and many more surprises. Keep reading, keep subscribing, and thank you so far.

Patrick
