| A brief history of the THE BIBLECODE SUNDAYS The band started out a few years ago and was originally
called 'Slainte', cutting their teeth on the Irish music scene in London, England. They played the
circuit for a while with various musicians until they finally settled on the current lineup.
With a combination
of musical pedigrees and great musicianship, the band soon became popular and in 2006 they won the title of 'Best Band
on the London Circuit’, nominated and voted by readers of The Irish World newspaper. The lads picked up the award
at a big ceremony and after their performance on the night were described by the paper as "…a breath of fresh
air for Irish music." They were never content to just be a local band playing other people's music and held ambitions of reaching
a world-wide audience. They began to pool their lyrics and bits and pieces of songs that had been
written over the years and also wrote brand new songs -- including three especially for Mike O'Dea's Boston-Irish
movie 'Townies'. The band then hit the studio and within a few weeks had recorded an album, Ghosts Of Our
Past, which exceeded their own expectations. They decided a name change was necessary due to
there being a vast number of bands worldwide named 'Slainte', it had served them well on the London scene but the
new music deserved a new name. 'The BibleCode Sundays' moniker came about from regular Sunday gigs and drink-fuelled
conversations about conspiracy theories. These weekly sessions became known as ‘The BibleCode Sundays'. As an independent release in the UK Ghosts Of Our Past was voted ‘2006 Album Of The Year' by Boston based Irish Punk Rock Web site Shite'N'Onions. Now available in North America, on Cosmic Trigger Records, the band’s first cd, Ghosts
of our Past, has the mix of traditional Irish and modern music and lays the foundation that is the unique sound
which is 'The BibleCode Sundays'. It speaks from the hearts of the band members and, they wish,
for the Irish communities all over the world. “We hope this music finds the people who
inspired it.”, Andy Nolan, The BibleCode Sundays
