THE TEMPER FROM HELL FOLK BAND

About Me

The first time I ever wanted to write a song was when i heard Factories trains and Houses By Damien Dempsey. I loved the idea of writing about my Experiences and what i saw around me. Damo Dempsey was the perfect tutor, He was and still is One of the main Influence Behind my Songwriting. I love to write Tunes about My Friends and Everyday experiences Good and Bad. I love Protest Music and Music That has an Edge to it. I Would Rate Stefan Murphy As One of The Best Writers Of Lyrics I Have ever Heard. This Fella Doesnt Get enough Credit Whatsoever. Since First hearing his Songs 2 Years Ago They Continue to Inspire Me Daily. There is No one In The world Who Loves Tunes as Much as This Man.I Use The Shitty Things That Happen Day in Day Out in This World, To Keep The Fire In My Belly and i Take It All in and Turn Them into Tunes. It is the only Language I Know.My Favourite Song is Love Will Tear Us Apart My Second Favourite Song is Colony My Third Favourite is Johnny Thunders By The Mighty Stef My Fourth Favourite is Proud to be a nobody from co Louth by Jinx Lennon.
