Schön! preview

Our tenth issue is all about the future, profiling strong personalities in fashion who have been altering perceptions of the industry through their work.

This is how Schön! magazine is promoting its current issue, which features exclusive new pictures of a glammed up Roisin.

Roisin & The Bullitts debuts

Just a few weeks into the new year and we get some fantastic new music from Roisin & The Bullitts. The song is based on the theme song from the classic TV series The Persuaders.

Send me your worst
The smile or the hearse
The flowers, the tear drops
Whichever comes first

But seek and you'll find
A dagger enshrined
You persuade me to thank you in kind

With heart on the line
Make haste the time
The knife or the poison
Whichever the crime

But with grand design
And life on a dime,
You persuade me to thank you in kind

Sydney video installation

Roisin is featured in Jasmin Tarasin’s video installation Live, which can currently be watched at Sydney's Town Hall as part of the Sydney Festival.

According to this review the movie is very intimate. Shot in black-and-white, Roisin can be seen performing in front of a plain white background.

Xmas greeting

7 Hills preview

Here is an exclusive preview of 7 Hills, a song Roisin recorded with Tony Christie for his upcoming album Now's The Time:

I really like that Roisin sounds quite bluesy on this song. What do you think?

Tony Christie's album will be released on 14 January 2011.

One million hits

Earlier today this blog received its millionth hit. When I started this page on 07/07/07 I never expected this landmark would be reached just 3 years down the line.

Thanks to all Roisin devotees for your visits and support!

Roisin works with The Bullitts

My favourite Roisin news is music news, so I am pleased that for a second day in row I have some for you.

It has been announced that Roisin has worked with the mysterious new act The Bullitts. The results of this collaboration will appear on the act's debut album, which is entitled They Die By Dawn and will be released next year.

However, we may hear the song before as the band will release a series of downloadable 'FlixTapes', a unique take on the mix tape as it features famous artists reinterpreting classic TV theme tunes and film soundtracks. A couple have already been released and can be downloaded for free.

Visit http://thebullitts.com/ to view the first two FlixTapes.

In the summer we got news that Roisin recorded a duet with Tony Christie for his new album.

I can now reveal that the album will be titled Now's The Time and will be released on 7 February next year. The songs will have a soulful sound, going back to Christie's musical roots.
