Damien began his musical career as early as 1985, busking in and around London..playing in underground tube stations, in Baker street, only one among many. He came back to dublin in 1986 and began to write the odd song now and again, he also began busking around Dublin and doing gigs, playing with noted people such as Mathew Devoureux and Shane from the Pale, Ronan O Snodaigh[Kila] and Mic Christopher[The Mary Janes] Glen Hansard[Frames] Greg Pearl[ Conspracy],even teaching his good friend Paddy Casey a few chords on guitar, all these people wer no strangers to his household in the center of the city. He quit the music just as all of these bands where just getting their first start.... to settle down with his Girl Judy.........during this time they had two daughters,Leah and Anne and this was the reason the music took second place. In 1996, Damien began writing again except this time songs by the dozen, he has penned songs, [A good day to die] a doomsday scenario about a frightning war were soldiers drop down like flies. [Tango one] about the rogue gangster Martin Cahill........ all of which had their first official debut on local radio with none other than ex-Pale mandolin player Shane on [North East accsess radio] Damien is currently doing three gigs every week, in the International, the Halfpenny Bridge, and the Gubu bar as well as starting work on a new album. He has not been Officially signed yet, but with the quality of music that he is currently writing, their is bound to be a demand for it. He may be on the sidelines at the moment but watch this space........ ?
