Rory Faithfield is a story-telling singer-songwriter who embodies the lyricism of his Irish heritage, the raw passion of his early Punk band days in Sydney and the clear-eyed sensibilities of life on the coast of Western Australia.
Veteran Australian Music Journalist, Bruce Elder, stated, "His songs are wistful, romantic, deeply felt, beautifully crafted and sung with a voice that pours sincerity and emotion over every line and note".
Rory is currently based in Dublin and working on the songs for his sixth - yet to be titled - album.

A Galway native, Kevin Connolly cut his teeth in the alt-country band El Diablo before releasing ‘Monsters’, the first collection of his own songs, under the name Herm. Ireland’s leading alternative music magazine (Hot Press) and radio station (Phantom FM) included it in their top ten Irish albums of the year and reviewers drew favourable comparisons with artists such as Beck, The Eels and Tom Waits.

The single ‘Year of the Horse’, a duet featuring Nina Hynes, received an honourable mention in the International Song Competition, whose judges include Tom Waits, Ray Davies and Robert Smith. The video for the single ‘Heads’ was nominated for an Irish Music Television Award.
