BRIAN HORGAN

Singer-songwriter Brian Horgan hails from Enniscorthy, the town of Colm Tobin, Vinegar Hill, Eileen Grey and Annie Jameson (mother to the inventor of the radio; Marconi) the River Slaney and the 10th Century historic Norman castle.

Brian’s debut album ‘Start Again’ is rooted in the place where he grew up. He’s taught English in Europe, worked as the Development Director in Dublin’s Abbey Theatre and has been involved in Music/Theatre/Arts all around the globe. He is also CX Director at the CX Academy and owner of Horgan Consultancy.

He’s home again, for now. Not quite starting again but taking a step back and reflecting. Releasing the album he always thought he could, and should. His songwriting and music are instinctive and well-received, with people asking if he had anything on record?

Brian’s passion is to sing, to write, to perform something unique. Something all his own. Personal, most certainly, but also connective and relatable. The thoughts and the sometimes travails of a lived experience. His listeners are in his songs.

Brian’s played live with his band in sold-out shows at The Sugar Club, No. 10 Ormond Quay, Smock Alley, Bewleys Café Theatre and The Abbey Theatre. Also in New York City as an invited guest performer of the New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA).

He’s no ‘Small Voice’, he isn’t a balladeer in the corner of your local. Not your typical ‘Singer/Songwriter’ in the typical fashion. (Much as we all love that…) There’s a bit more to Brian Horgan. He’s taken this long to create ‘Start Again’, thought a great deal about it. He’s where it has led him and we’re invited along.

Brian Horgan says, “It is all simply a journey of love and experience even (or especially) in its difficult moments”.
