I have to admit I am a real fan of bands but I also like many solo performers. Here is a nice variety of some of my favorites. I think you will enjoy them also.

UPDATE: Adding this to the Music Friday category even though it predated Music Fridays and wasn’t posted on a Friday so people surfing that category for music won’t miss this post.

Eamon Ireland

Eamon Ireland is folk singer from Limerick, Ireland. His soft voice and superior story telling techniques make his songs unforgettable. They stir the soul and sooth it at the same time. There is a magical quality to them that few other songwriters can bring to their music. A digital version of his album Our Love Is Gold can be purchased through his ReverbNation store here Listen to a sample below.


Mick Flannery

I have been a fan of Mick’s for some time now. He is from County Cork, Ireland but has also played in the US. He won the U.S. Songwriting Competition in Nashville, Tennessee and they know a little something about great songwriting in Nashville so you don’t have to take my word for it. Mick’s songs have a gravely sound and an earthy realism to them that touch a nerve with his listeners. Mick’s music is available through ITunes


Gareth Brannigan

We have featured Gareth here before but since he has recently released his second EP, Say it Anyway, I thought it was time to showcase him again. Gareth is from County Antrim in Northern Ireland. He is a young singer/songwriter but his songs are more mature than you would expect from someone his age. There is a very acoustic feel to his music and his lyrics speak to the listener in a very personal way. His new EP is not yet on cdbaby but I will include a link to the first one Walk With Me

Gareth Brannigan: Walk With Me


Following Bob

Following Bob is the stage name of Norwegian rock/pop singer Vegar Nesset. Vegar studied music at The Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. He has performed in several stage shows and has performed in a few tribute bands and has written songs for other acts.


Marty Logue

Marty Logue is a talented singer/songwriter from Derry in Northern Ireland. He also has an acoustic rock style music. His debut album As Good a Time as Any was produced by Paul Casey, who is also a very talented singer/songwriter. I couldn’t find Marty at ReverbNation but you can hear samples of his music at his myspace page http://www.myspace.com/martylogue It is well worth the trip over to myspace to hear him. He is very good. His album is available at cdbaby.
