Malachi
Cush official website: MALACHIMAD.COM and http://www.malachicush-weddingmusic.net/
I was born in Donaghmore in Co. Tyrone on 23 September, 1980. I grew up steeped in Irish folk and country music, my mother's cousin being Philomena Begley, queen of country music in Ireland. I was singing and performing from an early age. On leaving school I trained to be a gas fitter but my first love was always singing and performing.
In 2002 I was selected from thousands of applicants to take part in the BBC Fame Academy production. I joined eleven other young talented performers and songwriters in the quest to win the coveted prize of a recording contract.
On leaving the academy, I was rewarded with a recording contract with Mercury/Universal and was the first student to release an album. Entitled 'Malachi' it went on to sell over 100,000 copies and reached number seventeen in the UK album chart earning a silver disc.
My self-penned single 'Just say you love me' held the number one spot in the Easy listening chart in Thailand resulting in a showcase visit to Bangkok in November 2003.
In November 2005 I changed record labels and released an album, Celtic Heartbeat.
Since then I have been working on new material and presenting radio shows. An album of mostly self penned tracks called New Day was released on the Premier Music label in NOVEMBER 2007 to coincide with a Northern Ireland tour. Recently I have returned to the traditional music I grew up singing and have recorded a new album TIMELESS TRADITIONS which will be released in Feb 2009.
