BIOGRAPHY
Recorded and produced over the last year partially in his home studio, partially in Sun Studios with additional production by Gareth Mannix, Finds is Niall’s first solo project. Playing many of the instruments on these new tracks himself, Niall has honed a distinctive style; a hushed confidence of melody and groove, inside disco, rock and sometimes even folk. Not afraid to admit where his inspiration comes from, he says it’s everything from love, loss, and the history of life. You’ll find street scenes in one song, ancient maps in another.
Niall’s songs come across as honest explorations of everyday feelings without the smaltz. He hits a characteristic groove in each song, which just continues on through, hooking you in. Together, the songs leave an impression of subtlety, individualism and toe-tapping rhythm, with lyrics that creep on up and get you thinking.
Finds, Niall’s forthcoming album, will be released on Friday March 18th 2009.
