Mick writes all of his own music and lyrics. His original concept album, “Evening Trainâ€, boasts eleven tracks telling the story of a week in the lives of two brothers, and it has been reviewed as containing “astute and sophisticated lyrics†and “strong, imaginative melodiesâ€.
Mick is the first Irish musician to win awards in the prestigious U.S. International Songwriting Competition – “The Tender†won First Prize in the “Lyrics Only†category; “In the Gutter†took First Place in the “Folk/Singer-Songwriter†category (Judges included Tom Waits, Loretta Lynn, Sonny Rollins, John Scofield, Macy Gray and others).
Okay, so that’s a little history on Mick Flannery. As to the future, Mick's just signed a major label deal with EMI Ireland and will begin recording his new material soon enough. As to the personal side of Mick, well, we’re still not gonna’ tell you what he likes to eat and drink, his favorite color, or things like that. We’ll keep it all a secret (just for now). But we will say this – he’s very talented, very nice and very cute. :o
“Astute and sophisticated lyrics, strong imaginative melodies, consummate musicianship on both piano and guitar, and a voice that somehow manages to sound long experienced in the ways of the world.â€
