???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????(????)???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????EP??????????????????????????????????”????????????????”?????????????????? - Eejit Records
Alumnus of the Orchestra of Northern Ireland,, [McCauley] may not have the same lineage as your average chart topper, but with its crashing cymbals, brutishly beaten out piano lines and anthemic chorus', its destined to end up in precisely the same place. - Hot Press
The name may be unwieldy but mcCauley's music as shown by three Eps is emotionally straight to the heart. prof elements do battle with synth led pop economy and lighters aloft euphoria. It might all seem to tricksy to engage with were it not for McCauley's melodic ability: infectious tunes, impossible to dislodge - The Sunday Times

Bio
RAMS Pocket Radio is the alias of Northern Irish performer Peter McCauley. A multi-instrumentalist, RAMS takes inspiration from sources as varied as Beethoven and brutalist architecture to construct smart pop songs with a sharp progressive twist. His debut album Béton - French for concrete is a solid statement built on several years writing, performing and growing.
RAMS Pocket Radio has recently enjoyed supporting Foy Vance on his autumn 2013 U.S. tour. Prior to this, RAMS Pocket Radio has toured Europe, UK and Ireland with bands like Snow Patrol, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly, Foy Vance, and Darwin Deez. RAMS has also supported Matchbox Twenty, Marina and the Diamonds and The Lemonheads. He has self-released 3 EPs, received playlisting on Radio 1 and Irish radio 2FM and Cool FM, and has performed at a variety of festivals including Glastonbury, Electric Picnic, and Gampel, Rockin Park, and Nijmegen.
