‘Last Saturday at 10pm Mersk played a full one hour live set on Clonakilty’s Clonline radio station.  It was my first time collaborating with the noise collective although I have known of them for at least ten years.  There are many members in Mersk but the founding member is James O’Gorman.  Last Saturday it was James O’Gorman, Dan Guiney, Helio Leon (vocals), Rory O’Brien and myself representing them to the West Cork massive!.  I also managed to use my David Staaling microphone again, it’s turning out to be my favorite new device.  It really captures all the tiny acoustic sounds that I love so much.’  -Claire Guerin, 21st of June 2016
