R.S.A.G.
Rarely Seen Above Ground, aka Jeremy Hickey, is a multi-instrumentalist hailing from Kilkenny City. Jeremy records, performs and produces all the material in his home studio. Live he has being experimenting with the idea of a virtual band collaborating with visual artist Paul Mahon (Geppetto) creating silhouettes of himself projected on screen backing his live drums, percussion and vocals. Influences and comparisons have included ESG, Talking Heads & Joy Division (post punk) and Chemical Brothers and Aphex Twin with a new flavour of Dub Step rhythms (electronica).
As described by Niall Byrne -State.ie, This Winding Sheet, “harks back to the sound of his first album, yet pushes the envelope into interesting electronic sound additions. Drums propel the song while all manner of interesting bleeps, synths, guitar, bass and eventually vocals, work around it”
