About Me

Semi-professional musician & producer, working out of a very small studio in Kent.I work on all kinds of music, both solo and in collabaration with various talented folk, in a pretty wide range of genres.Most of my solo stuff tends to fall into the "downtempo acoustic/chilled" category.I'm always looking to collaborate with other musicians and producers - I reckon there's always a danger of disappearing up yer own backside when you try to do everything yourself.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 01/12/2005
Band Website: http://michaelohara.co.uk
Band Members: For the tracks on this page, basically me, plus:- Andy Organ at Lo-Tek , who produced my two recent tracks "Searching For Truth" and "Nothing Back";- my brother Arthur, who played slide guitar and sang backing vocals on those two tracks;- my good friend Craig (guitarist in Little Fish Big Pond ) who wrote the lyrics for "Running In the Rain";- the talented Doon , who did such a great job singing the vocals on that track;- Genesis Elijah and his label Broken Souls, who provided the acapella for the "Jah Bless" remix.
Influences: Loads. I listen to tons of stuff that inspires me - classical, rock, pop, acoustic stuff, hip-hop, electronica - if it moves me in any way, I like it.
Sounds Like: I never know how to answer this question. I guess if you like stuff like Zero 7, Turin Brakes, Elbow, Doves, Custom Blue, Gomez and other "downtempo" artists who combine acoustic guitars & vocal harmonies with samples, breaks & synths, then you'll probably like what I do...
Type of Label: Major
