A selection of stills taken while shooting live performance footage for the music video Monkey by Cavan singer/ songwriter Fabian Gillick, from his album Negative Boy. Although Fabian is a solo artist, it seemed best to complement the Monkey track (being a great rock-out track), with a full band set so as to give the bass guitar and drums as much emphasis as Fabians guitars and vocals. So for the performance set here we drafted in top notch local musicians and mates signer/ songwriter/ music teacher Ivan McCabe (who’s album “Urinal Cakes” is now available on Soundcloud and Bandcamp), and metal drummer Padraic Farrelly (formally session drummer with Celtachor). The performance footage was shot on location near Collon, Co. Louth.
Stills taken from video shot with the assistance of Amy Murray and Conor Moore, thanks guys!

As it is still in production, I hope these stills keep ya’ll satisfied for info on how the Monkey music video is going. Shooting of chase scenes for the video have just been shot on location in Cavan town so I will post up some stills from that A.S.A.P.
