I am so so sorry for my extremely late blog post. Things have been so hectic of late I’m finding it difficult to keep up with myself, but I’m back now 🙂
So the last I spoke with you, John & I were just about to fly out to Slovakia to play some shows. Well we only had the most wonderful time playing, meeting up with old friends and making some new. We’re so excited about returning in 2016 for our European tour. Check out some of the photos below.

When we arrived back, Clive Barnes & I played the beautiful Courthouse Tinahely Co Wicklow and had a fantastic night. Then it was onto Cork to see all our friends at RTE1’s Today Show where we performed ‘White Christmas’. It really helped put us in the Christmas Spirit. We also recorded a surprise performance of my latest single ‘You’re Not Here’ which will air on a future show. Check out a couple of photos below.
