Raglans – Self-titled EP

Debut EP from much respected Dublin band Raglans.

Video Review: The Man from Glasgow is the lead track from the debut EP by Dublin band Raglans. The cheeky indie tune has a decent if unoriginal video accompanying it. The first half of the video finds the band members walking around Dublin with the second half features the band with their instruments. The 4-way split screen doesn’t add anything spectacular to the song except that it keeps your interest enough to possibly stay with the song until the end. The more I listen to the song the more I like it with it’s funky bass line and clever lyrics. A possible radio hit for Raglans? Hopefully!
