Galway singer-songwriter Sean Tyrrell offers folk music that "belongs firmly in the here and now, his respect for roots cohabiting thrillingly with a willingness to stretch, invent and experiment." (Liam Mackey) Tyrrell's acclaimed voice contains seductive sweetness and an authoritative rasp. Ultimately though, both voice and lyrics defy easy classification other than the only one that really matters: this man's got soul. His performances blend athletic instrumental workouts with poetic songs of love and loss and war and peace. Whether Tyrrell is performing his own material, revisiting Irish classics, or setting Yeats' words to music, his touch is assured and more than occasionally heart stopping.
