Declan O’Rourke
With very special guest
support Ari Hest
In a beautiful setting, accompanied
by cello and violin, this is Declan’s
preferred stage line up. The show
will have all the flavour of an orchestra without taking away from the subtle
intricacies of Declan’s unique voice, guitar work and wonderful songs.
Declan O’Rourke used to be one of Ireland’s best kept secrets, but following
rave reviews for his début album Since Kyabram, his international fan base is
growing and an enviable collection of eminent devotees include Paul Weller,
Snow Patrol and Kate Rusby which continues to grow, based on the simplicity
of Declan’s great songs and unique voice. Declan’s lyrics touch on all aspects
of the individual; his songs focus on the centre of everyday emotions and
his voice irresistibly draws the listener in. He has an understated charm and
quick-wittedness that make him highly endearing live, and equally at home
playing to one person as he is to thousands.
Tickets: €30.50
