Behind every good campaign, is a good song. A song that captivates and encompasses the very essence of its campaign. Caint is here to help and encourage the speaking of irish and we challenge every musician in Ireland to write a song that helps us spread the word of this campaign.
The song must have at least a line, verse or chorus sung in Irish. All attempts can be emailed to paul@caintcampaign.com. All attempts will be shown here at www.caintcampaign.com. This site is receiving alot of traffic and we hope this will be encouragement to the young bands and musicians of Ireland (or anywhere else for that matter). We will help promote any musician who helps promote the Caint Campaign
Write a song that Ireland can rejoice too. From everyone on the Caint team - goodluck!
A fantastic song written for the Caint campaign that really grabs the excitement and buzz of the campaign. Like myself, Mr Gary Dunne is helping this cause for free and in his own time, I hope other's out there will help us now create an inspiring video to accompany this great song. Gary is currently getting the final mix on the track done.
Below are a few ideas that Gary has used for videos already.
Could we get people to video themselves wearing Caint t-shirts like Gary did for his track 'Simple Truth' which you can check out here
OR, and even better, would someone out there be able to create something animated like this. Maybe highlighting inspiring facts and quotes relating to the language.
