Description

Barry O'Brien is a Dublin based solo artist who's debut EP "Spark" is a soulful blend of past and present Powerpop and Rock influences. It also contains the beautiful acoustic ballad "Sisters in the Sky"which recalls the melancholic feel of both Nick Drake and Elliot Smith. The song was also used in a recent short film by Director/ Writer Patrick Thornton, called "Monster" in which Barry had a cameo role.

Born and raised in Dublin, he was brought up with the influence of his big brothers' record collection. He was inspired to take up guitar at the age of twelve and played with various bands until he attended Ballyfermot Music College.

Eventually forming the band "Peyote" he enjoyed success on the Irish gig circuit. When Peyote went their separate ways, Barry took a different route by taking up singing and immersing himself in the craft of songwriting.

Playing at various clubs around the city to develop his songs, he bought himself a 4-track recorder and formed his own band consisting of members from Mundy, Pugwash, Halite and Las Vegas Basement. Barry continues to tour and record for his forthcoming debut album.
