"You don't sound like anyone else," said Danny Thompson - renowned bass player for Nick Drake and Joe Strummer - about English musician Conil.

The GRAMMY-winning engineer for Tom Waits and Elvis Costello, Tchad Blake said: "Strange Part of the Country is an awesome album! I still listen to it."

Fleetwood Mac legend Peter Green liked Conil's music so much he stopped by Conil’s house to record with him. They recorded a version of Conil's homage to the jazz greats "Round Midnight". 

Strange Part of the Country never conformed to any current trends and has remained timeless. Now, people are discovering this album and it is becoming an all-time favourite. 

When the album was released in the UK, it received some amazing press. Britain's biggest selling music monthly Q magazine gave it: "Four stars - Q Recommends". Blues Matters magazine wrote: "One of the most original artists out there". In the next issue, Blues Matters put him on the front cover.

Conil left London after Strange Part of the Country was released and has spent the last ten years living in the United States and Europe - including New Orleans, New York City, and Berlin.

Brian Colhoun, aka “The Lion Colhoun” is an experienced musician and performer from Dublin. He cut his performance teeth in Asia with The Big Brass Balls band in the early 2000s and refined his songwriting and craft in Paris over a four year period performing all the while around the Parisian Irish Pub scene. Famous for “walking on the bar” during performances, he puts as much energy as he can into each show. Since returning from Paris to Dublin he has been writing and releasing music steadily while also performing.

His songs cover the themes of love, loss, regret, heartbreak, loneliness and sorrow delivered over melodic waves that hide the same themes. His well received single “Leaving with Our Friends” is a favourite among grassroots songwriters in Ireland.

Jimmy Behan is an Irish musician working with acoustic and electronic sounds, via computer processing, modular synthesis, field recordings and DIY electronics.
