Dublin born artist Cathal O'Briain enjoys writing original contemporary Irish Ballads and recreating old but familiar loved melodies. He sings and plays fingerstyle acoustic guitar, drawing upon aspects of human nature and history in his original songs and modernised covers of older ballads.

His upcoming album 'The 40 Foot' is a body of work from his collaboration with the legendary Producer Peter Eades who has worked with some of Ireland’s top acts such as Clannad, The Chieftains, Thin Lizzy, The Dubliners, Moving Hearts and De Danann. It features the accomplished pianist and singer Matthew Lalor on the track 'Dunbrody' and Brian O'Reilly (Jump the Gun) providing backing vocals on the track 'All I'm Needin'.

Album Release Date: Monday 01 December 2025
