Kevin Quigley and his band The Great Ideas return with an electrifying live version of their fan-favourite track ‘Slicked Back Charm,’ captured in all its raw and raucous energy at the legendary Monique Studios.
Recorded live under the expert production of Christian Best (Mick Flannery, O Emperor), this release perfectly bottles the band’s infectious stage presence and magnetic chemistry.
The live performance of ‘Slicked Back Charm’ unleashes an instrumental arrangement that has a haunting vibe to it, which transfers over to the sombre vocals delivered by Kevin Quigley and his band.
The song was written in Quigley’s Berlin kitchen, fuelled by a strong pot of coffee and a head still spinning with impressions from his first night in a Berlin nightclub — a surreal, smoky world of unforgettable characters and lingering, late-night energy. That same spontaneous spark pulses through this live cut.
Accompanying the single is a stunning live video, filmed during the session by Josh Walsh — immersing fans directly into the room where the magic happened.
The live recording delivers the grit, groove, and charm that have made Kevin Quigley & The Great Ideas a must-see act on the Irish music scene.
