New Single: 'Life Moves Forward' out 18.09.26

Just 3 days to go until the next single from Steve Mahoney Music & The Mill Island Band. ‘Life Moves Forward’ arrives on Sept 18th!
This is quite a British ditty tackling nostalgia, societal scapegoats, and the trick of time.. the narrative sold to us that things were always better in the past.

Musically, it features some incredible guest turns:
Spoken-Word Intro: Delivered by a mysterious veteran A-list actor whose identity I can't quite reveal just yet.
Vocals: The brilliant, tri-lingual Gabriella Romano returning after her amazing performances on our ‘Can't Get Arrested’ album.
Guitar Work: A first-time collaboration with Jim Moreton from House Above The Sun, laying down an amazing solo right alongside Gregs sensational riff and groove.
The Vibe: I’m told this nods to classic influences like Ray Davies, Squeeze, Paul Weller, and Blur.

I’ll be sharing a full audio deep-dive and breakdown of all the different song iterations after it’s released. It’s one of our faves from this forthcoming album and tasty live!

To celebrate the new single, join the band on 2nd October at The Cav in Stockwell, Sw8 2HJ

Next up, Emily is thrilled to have joined the talented cast and band of Two Come Home, A new play with music transfering to The Cockpit Theatre in Marylebone for a 2 week run and tickets are available now. Shows will run 2nd - 13th September.

“At a time when the voices of Queer individuals from rural, working-class backgrounds are too often unheard, Two Come Home brings them centre stage, capturing the courage it takes to reach for connection against the odds. With its haunting live score, complex characters, and unflinching look at the scars left by prejudice and solitude, this play is a bold reminder of why Queer stories matter. This isn’t just a play – it’s a reckoning, a testament to resilience, and a call for empathy. A truly unmissable play – this is outstanding, unforgettable theatre.”

'The Royal Bedding' - Chalk Farm Folk Saturday 19th May 2018

In association with Musicians Against Homelessness join hosts 'Mahoney & The Moment' for 'The Royal Bedding', a full day (1pm-7pm) of folkrock, blues, country, comedy and more 19th May 2018 down at The Monarch in Camden.  Entry will be £5 with all proceeds going straight to the grass roots charity which has already raised over £100,000.00 to support the homeless. Co-founder Emma Rule said it best: “Musicians Against Homelessness was not set up to just shake buckets or play on sympathy, it was born of an idea to bring together thousands of musicians and music lovers to promote and support the cause through shared interests and talents."

With performances by Ben Joseph & The Lay-Lows, Maletta Jackson & The Reputations, The Mill Island Band, Blake, Bernard Hoskin, Golden Spike, Mahoney & The Moment and a 'Royal' pub quiz co-ordinated by Mr. Steve Mahoney himself, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better deal for 5 quid, while also doing a bit of good! x
