Bio / Background
Brendan O'Loughlin moved to America in 1986 to expand his career as an Irish entertainer. Performing not only Irish, but popular, country and folk music in restaurants and clubs throughout the U.S. and Canada. His musical style is new, his musical experience is not. Brendan was born in Limerick City, Ireland. He reached his teenage years during the high point of the Irish showband era. He joined the showband circuit and played with a string of popular Irish showbands and excelled on vocals, bass and rhythm guitars. Brendan came into his own right as a songwriter in August 1993 and has been writing about his experiences ever since.
New CD Between Two Shores is now Available.
This compilation includes sixteen original songs, all written performed and produced by Brendan. Special thanks and appreciation to some prominent studio musicians. Bob Henke, (Dr. Hook / Glen Campbell) Guitars, Music & Vocal Arrangements. Ron Rutowski, (Glen Campbell) Fiddle, Banjo, Mandolin.
↓ more ↓Jonathan Yudkin (Kathy Mattea) Guitars, Mandolin, Nashville Production, and Ron Livingston Keyboards/ Piano.
This is an eclectic slice of Celtic music--a potpourri of flute, whistle, guitar, fiddle, pipes, drums and vocals, "Cry for Unity," with a touch of electric guitar, is a slow-paced plea for an end to the sectarian violence in Northern Ireland. "Gallant Band" praises the patriots who made it possible for Ireland to become a free nation, while a la similarly states it is time for all to experience peace, freedom and liberty. "Step Together" is an expatriate's remembrance of the small things that go a long way in forming community in rural Ireland while "I Want to Come Back" portrays the importance of and need to hold on to memories. "Here Comes the Night" continues the theme of the warmth of distant but pleasant memories. The fiddle and percussion-backed "Life of the Party," jauntily detailing a road trip through the west of Ireland, has a catchy, pleasing rhythm. Nashville sounding "Bonfires," fueled by harmonica backing, with percussion and electric guitar touches, solidly captures the revelry of a 'fest in May' party.
