About Me


I'm a singer-songwriter type and I try to fill my tunes with interesting lyrics, catchy hooks and layers of harmony. I played my first solo acoustic show in July 2006 in Radio City, Dublin. Having been in a band for a couple of years, this was an interesting change, the buzz was class, and I decided to keep at it. I released my first all-acoustic EP in December 2007 on Half Shell Records . I haven't any solid plans yet, but hopefully there'll be an album with a few more instruments on there some time within the next decade.
I'm also in a couple of bands. I sing and play guitar in a post-hardcore band called The Prestige. We don't have a MySpace yet. I play guitar in a hardcore band called Real Talk! too. We're on one of those vague indefinite hiatus type things. Check us out though. I also run a site called Moshspace.com which is a forum catering for the local Dublin scene where you can find out about bands, upcoming local shows and stuff like that. You should do just that, because local music is fantastic right now.
