   About Gary Dunne - New Single ’Hollywood"

New Single 'Hollywood" hits Irish Radio Stations

Having created quite a buzz on Myspace, 'Hollywood' has been chosen as the new single from the album. Please help us out by letting your favourite shows know that you want to hear it!

Here's the artwork

Simple Truth release date!

We're very excited! Gary's new album Simple Truth is out.

You can order a limited edition signed copy of the album for £9.99 (inc p+p). Click Add to cart below to buy securely through paypal.

"Simple Truth is one of my favourites of the year so far. A mixture of rocky, upbeat numbers and slower tracks; its heartfelt emotion, choppy beats and melodies catchier than the common cold made an instant connection with me"
THE IRISH WORLD

"Achingly beautiful and irresistible. Twelve songs with something to say about the world we live, and die, in. Now ain't that something ****"
HOT PRESS

"The guitar-propelled music journeys down as many mean streets as the clever word play, and the diversity on tracks like Hurt by Love and Vacuum show off the album's many strengths"
THE STAR

"A brutally honest songwriter and a clutch of deeply personal songs. Dunne has fearlessly chosen a deceptively simple format for the complex matter of self-revelation"
IRISH TIMES

"...catchy tunes as well as meaningful lyrics, an ideal combination...His eclectic musical taste shines throughout, form funky rhythms straight out of the Stevie Wonder songbook to lyrics that recall musical poets such as Neil Young and Thom Yorke"
STATE MAGAZINE

Recorded in East London through 2007, the new album features live favourites such as Dangerous and The Captain, as well as ten more folk pop gems!

Tracklisting
1 Hurt by Love 2 Simple Truth 3 Vacuum 4 Beginning of the End 5 Most People 6 Dangerous 7 Guess I Called 8 The Captain 9 If You Don't Want Me 10 Job 11 Hollywood 12 Sick + Tired

The Simple Truth video is here!

Here's the result - Thank you!



New UK and Irish Live Dates added

As well as the hometown launch night in Portlaoise on Apr 11 and various other headline shows, Gary will be back on the road with old friends Nizlopi (www.nizlopi.com) in late Apr. They are touring to promote their fabulous new album Make it Happen, released on Mar 31.

See above for show details.

Join our team?

We've got a fast-growing bunch of lovely people who have signed up to help with the promotion of the new album and Gary's music in general. Involvement varies from suggesting PR ideas right though to helping out with emails and online promotion.

Mama Shamone – THESE GUYS AREN’T PLAYING LIVE (except one acoustic) EXCEPT AT GLASTO FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR!
http://www.myspace.com/mamashamone
“Put Mama Shamone on at any venue and they are likely to take the roof off, this was one of the best live shows I’ve seen in years - certainly one of the best in London. In my opinion these guys are destined for greatness, it felt like I was witnessing history being shaped-something was just so right about what they were doing up there.” Vibe Bar

Here's something you would appreciate!

Amma’s Words of Wisdom for Artists and Musicians

Q: Amma, being an artist, a musician, I would like to know what my attitude toward my profession should be and how to express more and more of my musical talents?

A: Art is God's beauty manifested in the form of music, painting, dance and so forth. It is one of the easiest ways to realize one's inherent divinity. There are many saints who found God through music. So, you are specially blessed to be a musician. In regards to your attitude towards your profession, be a beginner, a child in front of God, in front of the divine. This will enable you to tap into the infinite possibilities of your mind. And this, in turn, will help you manifest more and more of your musical talents in a much deeper way.



Q: But Amma, how to be a child, a beginner?

A: Just be accepting and recognizing your ignorance, you automatically become a beginner.



Q: I understand that, but I am not completely ignorant. I am a trained musician.



A: How much training do you have?

Q: I studied music for six years and have been a performing artist for the last 14 years.



A: How big is space?

Q: (sounding a little puzzled) I don't understand your question.



A: (smiling) You don't understand the question because you don't understand space, isn't it so?

Q: (shrugging his shoulders) Maybe.


A: Maybe?

Q: But what is the connection between my question and Your asking, "How big is space?"

A: There is a connection. Pure music is as big as space. It is God. it is pure knowledge. it is the secret of allowing the pure sound of the universe to flow through you. You cannot learn music in 20 years. You may have been singing for the last 20 years, but to truly understand music means to realize music as your own Self. In order to realize music as your Self, you need to allow music to completely possess you. For more music to occupy
