- A big welcome back to Liam Ó Maonlaí & Peter O’Toole, who made their first appearance on Dutch music show "2 Meter Sessies" back in 1993, as part of the popular Irish rock group Hothouse Flowers. Signed by Bono of U2 in the mid 80's, Hothouse Flowers rose to international success with their record "People", that went to number 1 in the Irish charts and number 2 in the UK. It became the most successful debut album in Irish history. After two more albums and extensive touring, the group separated in 1994. Since getting back together in 1998, the band members have been sporadically issuing new songs and touring, but also pursuing solo careers. Together with "2 Meter Sessies" host Jan Douwe Kroeske, Liam Ó Maonlaí & Peter O’Toole looked back at their 1993 session, and talked about the Irish music scene of then and now. The played 3 songs: 'Forgiven' (of the Hothouse Flowers debut record "People"), their well known cover of 'I Can See Clearly Now' and a beautiful new song called 'Three Sisters'.
Filmend on December 8, 2019, in Electric Monkey Studio in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

About 2 Meter Sessions
====================
Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world.
Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993).
The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zeeland band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands.

What a gem! My friend found this session. I especially appreciate it, having seen the band very recently in Leeds, Yorkshire, and was there blessed with a relaxed conversation with Liam before they played. So much honest heart.
Saw you guys late 90's now in my sixties, miss you so much 😘

So sweet to hear you again guys .... "Three sisters" a new song from a new album ? I hope one day you come in France for a gig it will be so great ... Thanks again for all you do !! I discover you when your first single, "Don't Go", was played in the interval between contestants and the scoring in the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest. Such a ling time ...

Bonjour Laurent, Je vois que Three Sisters est disponible sur iTunes 👍...salutations de Montréal ✌🏼
Sur le nouvel album et la présente version...
Hothouse Flowers should sell out every independent rock club in The World. Lets say we start in Boston// And do a Northeast Run! Spring 2022 Geoff Payson is right !
Another comment from me... I wonder why the interviewer didn't name Delores O'Riordan from The Cranberries, but only called her the singer from The Cranberries, 2 or 3 times. I hoped that Liam would fill in the gap as he did know her.
I actually know Peter O' Tool
He told me once that he knows that you know him.
