  • About the Author

    Paul Brady, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist is one of Ireland’s most enduringly popular artists. Born in Belfast and raised in Strabane, Northern Ireland, on the border with the Irish Republic, he was interested in a wide variety of music from an early age. Brady joined the Irish ballad group, The Johnstons, with whom he recorded seven albums. Renowned as one of Ireland’s best interpreters of traditional songs, Brady continues to push out the boundaries not only of his own talent but of Irish contemporary music in the new millennium.

    Reviews

    ‘A troubadour, an honest man, fearless and true, an inspiration to anyone who would like to be a storyteller… And all that’s without trying to describe the way he sings and plays, that’s beyond me…’
    *Eric Clapton*

    ‘Paul Brady is strong stuff ….more real and more honest than most people would even try for ….a genuine voice speaking from the heart but with a brain still attached …I love his work and always have.’
    *David Crosby*

    ‘Few can write, sing and play with more gorgeous melody, virtuosity and soulful lyrics than Paul Brady. He’s written some of the most powerful and beloved songs I sing and will always be one of my favorite artists.’
    *Bonnie Raitt*
