The latest name to emerge on the country music scene in Ireland may not be as unfamiliar as you imagine. When we mention Aidy Quinn that name certainly is new, however when we mention Aidy Quinn son of the ‘Queen of Country Music’ Philomena Begley that’s a different matter.
Aidy hails from Galbally in Co. Tyrone and has been reared on country music since he was born. He is son of Philomena Begley and Tom Quinn, who were both members of the great Old Cross Bandshow and Rambling Men from where Philomena went on to greater heights in music throughout the world.
Already Aidy has a 14-track album to his credit, having recorded it a year ago to help gain a little profile locally before he would set out on the circuit to front his new band. The album, very aptly titled ‘Born and Bred on Country Music’ received very good reviews from presenters and producers on local radio.
The word is now out about Irelands newest singing sensation and the future looks bright for Tyrone’s Aidy Quinn. His enthusiasm to front his own band was built by listening to Merle Haggard, George Jones, Porter Wagoner, Waylon Jennings and Brad Paisley along with Irish artists including Mick Flavin and of course his mum Philomena Begley.
Aidy Quinn’s six piece band includes Kevin Hurson on lead guitar, Emmett Kane on bass, while on keyboards and fiddle we’ve got Plunkett McGartland, ‘Wishy’ Quinn plays steel and rhythm guitar and to complete the line-up we’ve got Chris Napier on Drums. Most of the members will themselves also double on vocals to compliment Aidan’s lively programme with some rock ‘n roll and a sprinkling of middle of road and party music.
Purple Heather Promotions, Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh who now handles Aidy’s affairs are planning to release a series of singles to help profile this new talent. A new album will also be released in a few months that will hopefully set Aidy Quinn on the bigger music circuit throughout Ireland, The UK and further afield.

Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence, and don't skip ahead. I've learned.... That life is like a roll of toilet paper.... The closer it gets to the end, the faster it goes.
I've learned.... That we should be glad God doesn't give us everything we ask for.
I've learned.... That money DOES NOT buy class!! I've learned...that it's those small daily happenings that make life so spectacular.
I've learned... That under everyone's hard shell is someone who wants to be appreciated and loved.
I've learned.... That the Lord didn't do it all in one day What makes me think I can? I've learned.... That to ignore the facts does not change the facts.
I've learned.... That the less time I have to work, the more things I get done.
To all of you.... Make sure you read all the way down to the last sentence.
