Operation Sea Saw
Listen to their song 'Ariel'
Operation Sea Saw came to life in June 1999. They started off experimenting with just keyboards and effects units, and then incorporated acoustic, electric and bass guitars. By May 2000, they had a CD and released it themselves under the title "11/2" (the track featured here is the opening track on the album). The CD is home to over forty minutes of very dreamy music on it, and people seem to listen to it when they are stoned or going to bed. One thing for sure it's not really disco material. It's now 2002 and they have just finished making a video (as you can see, they are not ones to be rushed) and plan another soon. More music too.
Operation Sea Saw are:
Dawn Copley: Born in England, brought up in Australia, and has lived on Irish
shores since 1993. She is the founding member of Operation Sea Saw and plays all
the keyboards. She now works in Dublin as a carer. (On an interesting musical note,
her Father wrote the famous song "I fought the Law but the Law won" while in prison
in England in the 60s. He sold the rights to it and never received the recognition
he deserved).
Raymond Beggan: Born and lives in Dublin. He is the guitarist and producer
of Operation Sea Saw. He has worked with a number of Dublin based musicians, and
produced the well received Pete Courtney album "One of these Kids" in 2001. He has
also made several music videos and is due to release an album of his own songs later
in 2002.
