The episode which features Dublin's Sweet Jane & Kilkenny's RSAG both making a song in a mere 12 hours in Sun Studios is the first in an eight part series which sees the aforementioned compete along with Dirty Epics (pictured), Sickboy, Infomatics, Noise Control, Majella Murphy & Hoarsebox for the title of Sony Ericsson Artist of the Year.

Not only did the first episode feature the bands in question, but the Sunday Tribune's Una Mullally, Phantom FM's Sinister Pete & our own Niall Stokes helped presenter Dez Ryan set the scene for the whole competition.

The repeat of the first episode is on RTE 2 Saturday night/Sunday morning at 00.45, or you can catch it at any time on the RTÉ player.
