The Remedy Club - Our Background
We are a husband and wife Americana/Roots duo from Ireland. We have been performing and writing together since we met nearly 15 years ago!! Since meeting we have toured around Ireland, Germany, France, UK, playing many festivals including Electric Picnic, Longitude, Westport, Beauvais Festival, Paris, Millport Festival, Scotland, Other Voices. and showcased at the Americana Festival UK in January 2018. We released 'Lovers, Legends and Lost Causes' last October, 2017 and are now working on our 2nd release which we hope to record in March, 2019 in Nashville and release in the summer of 2019.

What we've been doing since the release of our last album
Since the release of our album, 'Lovers, Legends and Lost Causes' in October 2017, we have been busy writing lots of new material in between tours, festivals, and raising a toddler! We are now finally ready to record our new album and are very excited to be working with 5 time grammy award winning producer Ray Kennedy in Nashville. Ray, who has been a great supporter of our music, is on board to produce, mix and master the album in Nashville. He has just finished working with Steve Earle and has worked with Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams, Sheryl Crow, Willie Nelson and many other award winning musical legends so we know we'll be in good hands!
How you can help
The music industry has radically changed in recent times and is very much a collaborative venture now where friends & fans are funding albums more in place of record companies. This means that you can help to keep independent music alive by simply pre-ordering the album or availing of one of the many rewards available such as private concerts or lessons in songwriting and guitar.
Your money will go towards paying for recording, mixing, mastering, musician fees and duplication of cds. We'll be keeping you updated on our journey from Wexford to Nashville.
Thank you
Thank you so much in advance for your support and for being a part of this wonderful adventure. We have a collection of songs that we're very proud of and we feel they deserve to be given an opportunity of being recorded to the highest standard possible. We cannot wait for you to hear them and to share this experience with you every step along the way.
Lots of Love & appreciation, Aileen & K.j. x

Nashville album update
Dear friends,
Thank you all so much for helping us make this next album. We were blown away by your generosity and support and honestly could not have done any of it without you. You should have received an email from us through mailchimp with the info below. If not please contact us on theremedyclub@gmail.com.
We wanted to keep you up to date on the progress of the album and our time in Nashville. Working with our dream producer, 5 time Grammy award winner Ray Kennedy, was an incredible experience and we are truly grateful to all of you who helped make it happen! We immediately established a great working relationship with Ray and got the entire album recorded in 7 days. What a treat it was to have such an incredible array of vintage guitars and microphones to choose from including a '61 Gibson Les Paul, which previously belonged to John Fogarty from Creadance Cleerwater Revival and last played by Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top. Ray put together a stellar cast of musicians including Lex Price on bass (Neko Case, KD Lang) and Lynn Williams on drums (The Wallflowers, Delbert McClinton). We were very fortunate also to work with world renowned multi-instrumentalist Rory Hoffman.
We have received all of the mixes now are over the moon with how everything has turned out and cannot wait to share these songs with you. We do want to take our time in releasing these songs, however. As independent artists the amount of work involved in making an album and releasing it can be quite overwhelming. We have learned from past mistakes so we are taking our time with this one and hoping to release one or two singles this year and the album in 2020.
Thank you all so much for your patience and again for your incredible support, which means so much to us both. We will be in touch with you individually to honour your reward and will keep you posted on everything. In the meantime we hope to see you at one of the gigs we have coming up (see website for details). http://www.theremedclub.ie/gigs
Love,

62% funded
Hi everyone,
We are now 62% funded thanks to YOU! Seriously,we cannot express how grateful we are to each and every one of you who has pledged to support this album. To work with such an incredible and prestigious producer like Ray in a top studio in Nashville is amazing. He had Ringo Starr, Rodney Crowell, Billy Gibbons (ZZ TOP), Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle in the studio only recently. We would be so delighted (and much relieved) to get to 80% by next Friday if at all possible so please keep on sharing (and huge thanks to those who have already been so kind to do so) and spreading the word to anyone you think might be interested in what we are doing. There are guitar and songwriting lessons, private gigs, an option to get a cover song recorded with a personal message and of course our top prize of 'undying gratitude love and devotion forever and ever' for a mere 2k.
Thank you so much, Aileen & Kj xx
30% funded thanks to our 53 funders!!
We would just like to thank each and every one of you for supporting our new album. Your support means everything to us! We have been working hard on the new songs and liaising with producer Ray Kennedy in Nashville to ensure we are ready to go in March. We are expecting to release the album in the summer and will be keeping you posted along the way.
We would really appreciate if you could please keep spreading the word as we have only 31 days left to raise €7,000 and cannot do it without your help.
Sincere thanks to you all,
Aileen & Kj
