RSAG

ByAndrew Miller

One of the most innovative and astonishing Irish musicians around, RSAG / Rarely Seen Above Ground a.k.a. Jeremy Hickey has been making waves since 2008. Renowned for his seriously explosive live set, Jeremy counts a Choice Music Prize nomination amongst other musical achievements. 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). RSAG records, performs and produces all the material in his home studio.

Live Jeremy experiments with the idea of a virtual band, collaborating with visual artist Geppetto to create silhouettes of himself projected on screen, backing his live drums, percussion and vocals.
