Floyd Soul And The Wolf are a rock band from Waterford, Ireland. Formed in 2004 between cousins Luke Heffernan (Floyd Soul) and Deano Moran, they soon recruited Simon Merriman who asked drummer Ciaran Delaney to join. The band's original influences were Neil Young, The Rolling Stones, and Van Morrison, but over the years their influences diversified to include punk, electronica, and hard rock. In April 2008, the band won The Irish National Student Music Awards. This was followed up by the release of their single "Give It A Chance". The track was well received nationwide 〔Hot Press & Irish Unsigned review http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&friendId=15726359&page=4〕 and on the strength of it the band spent three months touring Ireland, playing venues such as Whelan's in Dublin and Cyprus Avenue in Cork. Inspired by Bruce Springsteen's Darkness Tour, the band marketed their tour in the same way, calling it the Give It A Chance Tour. In February 2009 Floyd Soul & The Wolf released their third single entitled "Absinthe". Released as a free download to the public, it saw the band gain significant national exposure. In September 2009 the band recorded their debut album in Nashville, Tennessee with Nanci Griffith producer and guitarist Thomm Jutz. It is set for release in 2010. In October 2009 the band made available home footage from their recording sessions in Nashville, and further footage is set to follow.〔Nashville videos http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=15726359&blogId=512083549〕 Recently, former WWE executive and wrestler Shane McMahon announced he was a fan, branding them 'the greatest Irish rock band of all time' 〔Hot Press 10 November 2009 http://www.hotpress.com/archive/6007556.html〕 ==Discography== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Floyd Soul and the Wolf」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
