Geography Project - 'A travelling Man's Trip" around the world Part 1!!

The Original Rudeboys

Last week we were given a geography project to link various things to each other and around the world. My project is beginning in Dublin where the Original Rudeboys are from!

The Original Rudeboys are a band from Dublin, Ireland.They are known mainly for their single "Stars In My Eyes" which hit number 2 on iTunes and has received national airplay. They have played venues such as The Olympia Theatre and have also played at festivals such as Oxegen and the Reading and Leeds Festival. The band consists of Sean "Neddy" Arkins (Vocals), Robert Burch (Guitar and Vocals) and Sean Walsh (Ukulele). The band's genre has been described as a cross between hip hop and indie. Since forming, The Original Rudeboys have released two singles ‘Stars in My Eyes’ and ‘Travelling Man’ and in March 2012 they released their first album ‘This Life’!!
