I toured with Moya Brennan (Clannad) for seven years as her keyboard player, appearing on several albums and performing across most of Europe, Canada and the USA with some incredible musicians. My compositions have featured on award winning major productions around the world including Broadway, London, Tokyo and Ireland as well as TV, film and commercial work. My debut instrumental album, Sharp & Flat was released in 2012 to widespread critical acclaim (lucky me!). My career has given me extensive experience performing, recording, producing and working at the highest level in the industry, so I can help you make the most of your time here at Frequency.

I designed the studio with Carl Freslov at Amadeus Acoustic Solutions who have built studios all over the UK and Europe. They are simply the best in the business and i'm lucky to have coaxed them over to construct their first studio in Ireland. I wanted a versatile, sound proof-space to compose and to record in natural light. They delivered way beyond the brief achieving a sound transmission reduction of at least 55dB ensuring no more than very low ambient transmission at 5m
