I have been playing gigs as always, nowadays it s 2-3 a week on top of 12 hour days in the business! Tiresome but satisfying in so many ways. You can catch me lately in Dudley s of Thomas Street most Tuesdays from 8pm and Delany s of Knocklyon on Thursdays from 9:30pm. Outside of that I haven t done any recording, but aim to remedy that some day soon and bite off a few more of the 400 songs I…
Between making new material and the pandemic I took a long break from Music. For the pandemic years I stopped playing because without performance the relationship I had with music held no foundational point of reference.

I took some time off from recording but am getting back to it again now. The fourth album is coming to a close, some of it is older songs that I finally finished, the others are newer ones. I also have a few ideas for an acoustic album which is probably the most representative of my music because most of the time I m playing it s just me and a guitar. I ll post more when I have it!
Dave Fanning is Ireland s best known music critic, his breadth and depth of knowledge of pop music is unrivalled, he s been at the top of his game forever, so it was a huge deal for me to go on his show. He played Blacksheep and we had a fun time chatting about all manner of things. It was really great to meet Cathy Davey too who is a fascinating person and great musician.

Super pleased to announce that my 3rd studio album Blacksheep has been released on iTunes and Spotify!
Watch this on a mobile or tablet in fullscreen mode to get the best idea of what it s about. The idea is that your device is part of the show. We shot this in fast and slow frames to give the idea of a person having a bad day and how it can seem that time is dragging for you while the world speeds by.
Delighted that the new video for Cracked Up got a mention in The Sun! You can see the video on their page or check it out on the video section of this site.
This is an acoustic song that strays into the Rap genre, it s about addiction and loving somebody even when they go down a path you don t understand or accept.
Answer: The new album! It s getting down to the final stages of the new album so will hopefully have something by the end of June to give you all a taster of!
