Born and raised in Lurgan Co Armagh i've been playing music most of my life. Started playing guitar when i was about 13 years old and loved listening and playing irish traditional/folk music. Learned to play and sing by going to local music sessions every weekend. Soon started playing gigs solo and also with groups around home and eventually went to america in the late ninties, got work playing in pubs and clubs around the midwest of the U.S. so started to tour around quite a bit. Its a great feeling knowing that you can get up on stage each night and get the real buzz of performing for an audience.
In the past few years been i've mostly been playing gigs with Mike Wallace (limerick) and Sean Conway (clare) in the USA and have been spending a lot of my time concentrating on writing my own material. My major influences would be Paul Brady, Luka Bloom, the great Luke Kelly, Andy Irvine to name a few. I love listening to great singer/songwriters singing good songs, no matter what type of music it is........ ya cant beat it.
I'm back home in Ireland and loving it being home for a while, playing sessions and catching up with old and new friends,great stuff.Cheers Darren
