Lesbians are everywhere, even on the opera stage. Shoegirl gives us the low down on cross-dressing, gender-bending and singing like an angel.

Yes, dear reader, we’re offering you the chance to ask Heather Peace anything. Anything at all. The actress-cum-singer-cum-’ere is coming to Ireland in March for one night only and wants to hear from her fans. So what do you want to ask her?

When I heard this news, I flailed wildly, unable to control my limbs or emotions. Wicked! In Ireland! One of the greatest musicals of our time! Here – In Dublin!

Awkward the new music video from Saucy Monky, describes running into an ex at a party. And not just any ex, the ex. You know the one. That bitch.

We have already seen the Pink’s new album The Truth about Love, peak at number three in the Irish album charts, but I’m surprised as I’d go as far to suggest this is one of her best albums yet.

The Icelandic six-piece, indie/folk band,Of Monsters and Men, have come out of nowhere and completely dominated the Irish airwaves recently. Goodbye Somebody I Used To Know and hello to the newest indie song caressing our eardrums, Little Talks.

It’s time to list off a few more women we admire, this time we are talknig about ladies whose names start with C. I’ve written about some musicians I know but would love to hear from you who I have left out.

Every person who comes out acts like a beacon to so many people. Tom Gabel, lead singer and guitarist with Against Me! will be no exception, congratulations to her for standing up for her truth

Later this week one of my favourite singers will take to the stage at Vicar Street in Dublin. Lisa Hannigan came to our attention when she collaborated with Damien Rice but now she is a force to be reckoned with as her solo career goes from strength to strength.
