Cronin follow in the footsteps of John Lennon!

Cronin are back with a new video for their latest single Octopussy.

A cover of The Wedding Present indie classic, the Mullingar based band took to the west coast of Mayo for the shoot which features Matt McManamon of The Dead 60s and The Specials fame.
“In 1967 John Lennon of The Beatles bought the Island Dorinish off the coast of County Mayo.

“On the 21st of April 2016 we retraced his footsteps with a camera,” say Cronin who are about to announce details of a nationwide tour ahead of an album release this summer.

They play Holland's Vestrock festival on June 3 along with fellow Mullingar band The Academic.

Meanwhile you can catch them tomorrow night, Thursday, in Boyles of Slane when they take to the stage with Irish Indie scene comrades The Mighty Stef .
