New Year Greetings…

Hope you had a fantastic Christmas with loved ones and wishing you all a very happy, safe and prosperous 2016!!!

2015 was an amazing year, which included the release of my EP ‘Roll The Dice’, a PPI Award Nomination, A Stellar Award Nomination for ‘Best Irish Singer’, a viral video (check out Clisare) , visiting all my pals at radio, making my debut on TV3’s Midday Show, performing on numerous other TV shows with the wonderful Clive Barnes & my brother John, touring the country extensively, ‘Day Is Done’ (taken from the EP) peaking at no 8 in the Irish Airplay Chart, two of my singles making it to no 1 in the iTunes Chart, two European Tours and so much more…..I loved every second of it and couldn’t have done any of it without your support and a team of amazingly talented people.

Check out some highlights below.
