Album Notes

Songs From A Yellow Chair is Brendan Devereux's latest collection of self-penned songs. It is a quality mix of original acoustic songs and music that straddles the Atlantic Ocean.

Brendan was born in Finglas West, Dublin, Ireland.
For the past twenty years he has worked as an Educational Welfare Officer - before that he studied Philosophy and Sociology at Trinity College Dublin.

Brendan started writing songs in earnest in the early 1990's.
In 1993 won the Killarney Folk Festival Song Competition.
Brendan's first album Copper Alley followed in 1996.
Since then he has continued to write original songs of true quality and perform them in intimate settings.
Songs From A Yellow Chair will establish Brendan as a significant force as a singer/songwriter.


"We're REALLY picky about what goes on the front page. We get about
75 new albums a DAY coming in here now, (about 30,000 total), and
yours is one of the best I've ever heard."
Derek Sivers, President Cdbaby.

I've had this CD over one month and can't get enough of it

The lyrics are poignant and express a knowledge and heartfelt senitivity to much of the human experience- the voice carrying the lyrics sounds sincere and is  pleasing to the ear-guitar playing superb as well as the back up- JB

Sitting in a pub in Dublin with Brendan. It was one of my life's memories that I will cherish forever.

Jeese, where do great musicians hide?  I am so glad to have discovered this CD. His songs remind me of how safe I felt with my dad around.

But any way you look at it, any fan of folk music should give this one a whirl.
author: Tamara Turner, CD Baby
                            
He very well might be Ireland's James Taylor or David Wilcox. This is an outstanding modern, adult folk album with an Irish heart and a wild, wistful spirit as vast and raw as the hills of Connemara. From goosebumpy ballads to upbeat, jangly and witty numbers, slightly touched by folk blues, his approach is one with an accessibility of coffeehouse singer/songwriters yet those with country music in their veins will also find plenty to cozy up to (there's the faintest hint of Willie Nelson in a few spots). But any way you look at it, any fan of folk music should give this one a whirl.
