notes
I was born in Galway, Ireland, in 1979 and moved to Vancouver, B.C. with my parents shortly after that. I started to learn to play the violin when I was six ( I really wanted to play the guitar ) and trained classically until I was twelve. When I was fifteen I'd had enough. I put the fiddle away, grew my hair, picked up a guitar and for the next ten years I got into Nirvana, Eagles of Death Metal, Soundgarden, Kyuss, Tool and their ilk. ( You know how it goes). Now I sing in a rock band that's called 'The Next Hundred Years'.
In the summer of 2003 I went to see my dad in Regina, Saskatchewan. While I was there, I suggested to him that we do a gig together. He upped the ante by suggesting that not only should we do a gig together but we should record it live. So we picked out some of our favorite tunes, a few songs, brought in Brendan, our saw player, and for three weeks got down to business.
We think the work paid off, but you judge for yourself.

Recorded live at the Bardo Cafe, Regina, Saskatchewan, Aug. 2003
It may be of interest; the album ' The Boy From Ireland ', ( available also on cdbaby - see the 'UZ2' link on the sidebar ) is a recording I did ( again with my dad ) in Blue Wave Studios in Vancouver in 1981 when I was 9 yrs old.
Also, the saw being played on ' Musical Priest ' is 3 feet in lenght. You can see pictures of it, and Brendan Schick playing it, by clicking on the ' Musical Priest ' link from this page.
