Gemma Hayes performed a concert at Google’s headquarters in Dublin last week (14th Jan 2010) as part of their Musicians@Google series. During the half-hour set she played:

10:22 Ae Fond Kiss
13:08 Waiting For You
18:28 Shock To The System
24:01 Back Of My Hand
30:24 Oliver
34:00 Cloudbursting
38:33 Happy/Sad

Below you’ll find the YouTube video embedded. You can use the times above to skip straight to the new tunes if you wish. The Kate Bush cover of Cloudbursting (which Gemma gave away as a free mp3 download over Xmas) is really wonderful.

Here’s the blurb taken from the YouTube page:
