It's been a really hectic week this week. The initial episodes for season 8 of Glor Tire were being recorded in The Quays, here in Galway city. I've been shooting the production stills for a few years now and this year had an even more hectic schedule due to changes in how the programs are recorded. There's 9 new contestants, along with a new presenter, Aoife Ní Thuairisg. On the band front, there's 2 new bands to the show also, Nathan Carter and Thomas Maguire. Old favourites like Mike Denver and Louise Morrisey feature too. I'll be blogging photos from the show as the relevant episode is aired.Here's a preview of this years contestants.
