About Me

I wanted to say something cool here! Some clever little comment to remember me by and set me apart from all the thousands of other acousticky/singer/songwriter dudes out there. Something you'll appreciate, maybe even connect with, so that you'll acknowledge all this and NEVER LEAVE!!!!..............But I can't think of anything... for now at least. ('cept that I was born in Cork City. I'm 28. I live in Dublin and I can sing and play guitar at the same time.) More songs and gigs are on the way. And if you wanna know anything else about me, just ask!! I'm not famous or anything. I will reply!!

Band Members: None. Yet! It's all solo acoustic stuff for the time being. I'd rather be in a band! Then maybe I'd get some motivation and actually start finishing some songs.. (Anyone think they could add to these tunes give me a shout!)The Good Friday Demos were recorded by Julio, Dara and Chris at Elektra Studios, Temple Bar back in 2008. I've uploaded the raw acoustic demos from those sessions for this webpage. They consist mainly of songs I've had for years and was just too lazy to finish...All songs mixed by Chris Prior.A firm handshake to all involved..
