April/May/June 2013

Hello everyone I hope all is well out there for you all.

I have some shows coming up soon and will fill you in with the latest ramblings below

As some of you know my re-release of 'Trip To Dingle' made it Album of the Week in Ireland on Charlie McGettigan's Arts Hour Program, It also was featured on Radio National's 'The Daily Planet' with host and great musician Lucky Oceans. Turns out Lucky and myself have haunted some of the same places along the south west and west coasts of Ireland.

Thank you Lucky for the Airplay!

You Can also still purchase my music direct from me here if you like or itunes and CD Baby.

And remember My Friends Ben Jordan and Greg Humphreys would love to visit Australia for a tour, not by any means at the same time but that wouldn't hurt either I'm sure.  Please email me if you like to try and organise something for them or you can contact them below.

Here is Ben and here is Greg

I met Ben and Greg in Prague a couple years and and really liked the music they were playing.
I met so many great new friends and musicians on that trip, I hope to return.

Coal Seam Gas!
My Friends have written a anti Fracking song, I am happy to be involved with this and be apart of this great movement.
Our Friend Andrew Mitch set up his little camera and we recorded it live on the Balcony and it came out pretty good for a live take. I like the kids holding the signs :)  .
have a look here

I had the privilege of being able to see The Waterboys perform twice on their first ever visit to Australia, Wow! What a live band. One of the best live acts I've seen. I saw them in Brisbane doing one of their 'standard' shows and in Sydney performimg their 'Mr Yeats' Show. With flute and Vocal by no other than Local girl Sarah Calderwood! Rock on Sarah.

I was also very blessed and was able to see the amazing Paul Brady , What a songwriter and performer! Thanks for coming way down under Mr Brady, And thanks to Troubadour Touring for getting me in the door. I'm spoilt so I am.

A Special Hello to my Europe/UK friends,
Hope to share the stage with you all again some time soon.
