I live in Bangor, Northern Ireland, a seaside town where I was born and raised. I play gigs on Fridays and Sundays in the local bars - the Jamaica Inn and the Rabbit Rooms respectively. I cover mix of oldies from Johnny Cash to Johnny Rotten.

I like playing pool, drinking Guinness, going to gigs, eating spicy food, and designing stuff on my Macbook. My favourite bands are Bob Dylan, Pearl Jam, Kula Shaker and NOFX. Folk Dope is the title of my 2018 full length album available on mint green vinyl pressed by Feedbands. All songs are original compositions.

Emét (Emmét McGonagle) is an indie-folk musician hailing from the North of Ireland and based in Calgary, Alberta. With influences ranging from Leonard Cohen and Hozier to Phoebe Bridgers, the Derry native released their musical debut “JJ Johnston” in the depths of the coronavirus pandemic.

Follow-up singles “I Am a Bomb Technician (If You See Me Running Try to Keep Up)” and “Thran” would later be released as part of Emét’s debut EP Cheers & All the Best, the title track of which was hailed by KEXP’s Kennady Quille as “fabulous”. With support from a 13-minute short film comprising all four tracks on Cheers & All the Best, the EP was described by Chordblossom as “certainly something to write home about”.

Since the EP’s release in March 2021, Emét has moved to Calgary Alberta where they released “Hate To See It” - the first song to be released from their debut album Carlin’s Farm. Detailing the daily routine of a keyboard warrior, the single gained attention from Irish News and Out Magazine, with Pride Media Inc CEO and editorial director Diane Anderson-Minshall hailing Emét as a "bourgeoning LGBTQ star".

Carlin’s Farm (set for release on April 8th, 2022 with distribution by AntiFragile Music) was recorded in Belfast’s Half Bap Recording Studios by No Oil Paintings percussionist George Sloan, with accompaniment from Buí bassist Rónán McQuillan.

Emét (he/they) is pronounced Em-it.

Native to the rugged landscapes of Cornwall in the United Kingdom, Liam Jordan is an alt-rock artist who began his musical journey at a young age in school bands and later went solo, penning some of his first original material. After many years of playing regular venue residencies and in folk clubs around the UK, Jordan set out to work on his first major release and self-titled debut album. 

The release of the record in 2018 saw it's lead single ' Tap at My Window' get featured in Richer Unsigned's 'Best of 2018' playlist in association with Q Magazine. Shortly after playing Manchester Folk Festival, Jordan joined a roster of great Americana and folk artists, including Stephen Fearing (Blackie & The Rodeo Kings), Kyshona Armstrong and Lynn Hansen, with independant label Fish Records. 

 Fusing folk, country, gospel, rock with strong subject matter and powerful and emotive production, the album nods a respectful head to songwriting greats such as Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Neil Young. 

"Liam Jordan’s debut album not only nails his colours to the mast as a certified talent, but just might be the first rung on his ascent to greatness. With a voice that sits between Jeff Tweedy and Jason Isbell, and with his own narrative framed in what would now be firmly coined as the landscape of Americana, it’s a rewarding debut. One to check out and keep a close eye on." - Matt Owens (Noah And The Whale)

" A great new voice in Americana and folk music" - Tom Russell

"A true and moving songwriter" - Martin Furey

death by sherbet, a moniker for the indie loopster synonymous in the public consciousness with convergent strata of aural sugar, a melodic lattice supported by compellingly hideous drum synths and little regard for cultural boundaries.
