To any bands/ artists looking to add me as a friend, sorry, but I was getting so many band requests I had to block them. If you think I'd be interested in the music you make, feel free to message me and I'll add you if I like what I hear. Sorry to be awkward, but I've only so much time in my day to listen to you all.....



Meantime, the bio etc....

Kevin Brett is a Singer/Songwriter from Galway who has been writing songs since the tender age of 14, and performing them regularly since the year 2000. In this time he was based in Dublin, Maynooth, Kingston-Upon-Thames, Galway and now finds himself in Athenry.

Along with songwriting Kevin has also composed a few scores for short films, music for modern dance pieces and recently started composing short pieces for a classical guitar ensemble in Athenry.

Fatherhood has meant Kevin is not performing as frequently at the moment but he does still pop up here and there so keep an eye on the site!

Mark Dignam will be traveling to his native Ireland in February, for what truly will be a couple of those great memorable evenings. These gigs will be worth traveling for, that I can guarantee.

Thursday Feb. 5th, 7pm Vicar Street Dublin, Ireland with The Swell Season and friends. The gig is a benefit for people with intellectual disabilities and is likely to feature some memorable one-off collaborations.

Sunday Feb. 8th, 8pm Whelans, Dublin, Ireland. This is Mark's headline gig and he will be joined by some very special guests. This is Mark's old stomping ground, and might well be a nostalgia fest...

Thanks for the kind comment. Sorry for the delay, but I've been putting the final touches on the debut record. It's up now on itunes and amazon (amiestreet, rhapsody, etc.) There are 2 sides: Sink and Fall. "Sink" is more pop and electronic; "Fall" is more punk and country. We appreciate all your support. Have a happy MWU year
