I’ve always loved music for as long as I can remember, my parents used to play music around the house that ended up shaping my taste nowadays. As soon as I was old enough to go to gigs of my favourite bands, my love for music became bigger, more real. I became interested in the new musical paradigm, and I created my own music account on Instagram, that would allow me to meet more people with the same interests as me, and, of course, get to know exciting new bands to love.

Even though I do love these current music trends, I can’t help but yearn for all the exciting periods I wasn’t able to experience, with bands I know I’ll never be able to see live in their prime -or ever, as a matter of fact. U2 has been one of those bands that I wish I could go back and see live (one of the first CDs I bought was a compilation of U2’s singles), they’ve influenced me in an essential way, introducing me to other Irish bands and artists, and not only that, but they also boosted my interest for the Irish-British conflict, due to their popular song ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’. That’s why when I was asked to make an edit for the band, I was super excited to do so. I’ve been searching for cool clips of the guys, so it isn’t just videos of their performances, but them having fun and hanging out, so I’m hoping it will look original.
