I grew up in Dublin, Ireland, in a very musical household (my father being a violin teacher!) moved to maynooth to become the much loved stereotypical arts student (studying music . . . and beer!) for two years.
It was there that I first performed at the NUIM singer songwriter night hosted by Paddy Curley (thank you bren!). It was at this s/s that I met many talented musicians such as Kevin and Ebby Brett , Catherine Ferris and Anthony Kelly. Moved down to Galway for a year to write music and busk for a living! performing regularly at the Monroes and Warwick singer songwriter nights hosted by Kevin Brett.
During this time I also performed at Scribblers wine bar/cafe both as a solo act and in a jazz duo with Ebby Brett. I then moved to Sydney where I played regularly in venues such as The Vic on the Park, Kellys on King and The Marquee and i also recorded my album full of lots of luverly sad and depressing musics while eating pie.
Then back in galway I helped to set up and run People In The Moon Records Ltd. with the afore-mentioned Brett brothers and gigged around Galway in places such as De Burgos, Richardsons, the Rowing Club, the Cellar, the RoisÃn Dubh, and BK's Wine Bar. I also played in the Boom Boom Room in Dublin!
Every so often, I was also lucky enough to support Cuckoo Savante. They're a fantastic band, do check them out if you see them playing around Galway.
After spending seven months in Bilbao in Vizcaya Euskel Herria (Spain) recording with a flamenco rap/folk/fusion band and performing in various folk groups i am now living in Barcelona Catalunya (Spain) working on an album and playing gigs!
