Barry Tierney is a multi-international award winning singer and songwriter from Kinsale, in south Ireland. He is from a prestigious musical family on his mother’s side which includes several professors of music and Vincent Dowling, the late artistic director of The Abbey Theatre as well as a paternal connection to Finbar Wright the internationally renowned tenor.  Barry’s unique singing voice and writing style are distinctly Irish and have gained him fans at home and abroad. 
Barry has been presented songwriting awards by such names as Robin Gibbs of The Bee Gees and Bob Geldof of the Boomtown Rats as well as Jimmy Deenihan, the Irish Minister of Arts at the time, after winning the IMRO sponsored Sean McCarthy writing festival award. Barry topped the Irish iTunes Charts in 2014 with his critically acclaimed album Hotel Alamar which led to him signing a lifetime publishing deal with Universal Music Berlin. Barry has toured Russia, UK, Germany and the US and has toured 6 months a year since 2014 although appearing very little in Ireland. 

Barry’s new single “Colours on Canvas” will be released on the 7th of February and available for pre-download on iTunes from the 2nd of February. This song is an obscure look at Cork culture, history and politics. 

In the summer of 2022 Barry will be releasing his second studio album.
