Hi I'm a folk musician and producer from Ireland playing and singing traditional folk as well as my own originals that blend folk and electronic elements. Inspired by diverse sources and my time living in different places.    Cheers!

I am of this Earth.  "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age."
-Lovecraft

I recover ruins memories from fragments of metropolitan inputs through the eye of "Fragile", the link between all my art works. Fragile is a little iron man, I bring me with me all the time, everywhere I go, since 2005. Ideally he represent a survivor of the earthquake-seaquacke that in 1908 destroyed completelly the city of Messina, my city, causing 120.000 people death: the most tragic natural catastrophe of all time in Europe. 
So I try to transform and assemble these ruins in an ideal, ancestral world, a place in the middle between the desire to escape and the need of isolation.
