  63 - Aidan Jones Shares the 'Overkill' Deluxe EP

  Jun 25, 202627 min

  Edinburgh's Aidan Jones is the latest in the Léim Thart hotseat! I've been playing his music non-stop for over a year now and felt like we needed to sit down and talk through his EP 'Overkill' which has just received a deluxe release in time for the summer. Originally released in December, the EP tells a full story as a time capsule, and racked up over 100,000 streams independently. The deluxe release has 2 new songs; 'Dog years' for his late best friend Charlie, and a new ending to the story with 'You & i', which I've been listening to on repeat. With his first gigs already underway, I'm really excited to see what's to come. Watch this episode on YouTube HERE Follow Ruairí Egan / Léim Thart HERE 'Overkill' is out now where you listen to music. - 'Overkill' Deluxe Tracklist 1. Kiss 2. Mine 3. Isn't he pretty 4. Boyfriend 5. Butterflies 6. Overkill 7. Dog years 8. You & i

  <p>It's been a great decade of music and community from Kildare's No. 1 inter-racial Hip-Hop duo, Tebi Rex. Since forming in Maynooth University, the pair have cultivated a community of loyal listeners who have all grown up together, sold out shows all over the place, and probably played your Fresher's Ball while they're at it.</p><p><br></p><p>This is their 3rd time coming onto Léim Thart, having previously chatted about their first 2 albums in 2019 and 2021.
