About / Biography

Originally from Dublin, I spend most of my time in Manchester and Montanchez (Spain). I play regularly at venues and events across Europe.

My live performances feature a mix of original songs along with powerful renditions of Classic Blues, Folk and Americana through songs such as ‘Strange Fruit’ (Nina Simone/ Billie Holliday) ‘Vigilante Man’ (Woody Guthrie) ‘Me and The Devil’ (Robert Johnson) and ‘The Ballad of Billy The Kid’, played on Acoustic Guitar, Harmonica, Weissenborn, Dobro and Mandolin. I also play with other musicians so three and four piece band gigs are also possible.
