About Me

The Citizen are a Cork based band who are fast becoming as one of Cork’s most promising bands and have been attracting much attention within the music industry. 'The Citizen' strike a beautiful balance between artistic credibility and commercial potential. Having acquired a large and loyal following, ‘The Citizen’ have just released their much anticipated debut E.P. ‘Paper Hearts’ and will be promoting it at various venues around the country. Following the release of the ‘Paper Hearts’ E.P., the band were placed in the last twelve of Murphy’s Live 2007. The most outstanding musical feature of this group is the stark vocal interaction between lead singer and guitarist John O Connor and vocalist Lisa Walshe. This, paired with the musical talents of Killian Taylor on bass guitar and Greg Aherne on drums gives ‘The Citizen’ its unique sound. With their pop melodies, folk sensibility and rock edge ‘The Citizen’ have been captivating audiences and are recognised as a very cohesive act.
