"Lovely, lyrical, spiritual, a joy to listen to"
~ Howard Zinn
“When Fionn played "Waterside" live in the studio for our radio show, he left everyone in the room breathless. His voice is incredibly pure and always soulful. An amazing performer, songwriter, and recording artist.”
~ Mark Sutton, NPR Producer
'We've heard few recent debuts as bold and provocative as Fionn O Lochlainn's Spawn of the Beast. Not only does he demonstrate a knack for observant songwriting, but he's an impressive guitarist and musters a vocal range that stretches from dry witticisms to power-crooning worthy of Jeff Buckley. The biggest surprises come in a drone-based cover of Black Sabbath's "War Pigs" (complete with rustic uilleann pipes) and two transformed Frank Zappa tunes, "I Am the Slime" and "Dumb All Over." Elsewhere, Ó Lochlainn cuts to the bone with the stark "Blues for America."
~ Time Out NYC
"magic writing, magic playing, magic album"

"The up-and-coming Irish singer-songwriter Fionn Ó Lochlainn plays a hard-rocking guitar..."
