NEW YEAR NEW ALBUM!

It’s all go here

As well as getting back to a hectic live schedule of shows around Ireland (with European tours being planned for later in 2022) I’m recording a new album!

Making the most of limitations I’ve been embracing all things lo-fi and recording away on my Tascam Porta02 four track cassette portastudio, in conjunction with my ailing, creaking desktop PC.
It has given these new recordings a new found focus and also a warmth, intimacy and freedom.

Ian McTigue has been providing show-stopping bodhran, percussion and drums and Kevin Meehan has contributed stunning whistle playing to a recording of Fare Thee Well Enniskillen that is going to explode out of your speakers and take you over!

I can’t wait for you all to hear these new recordings.
