  • Bio

    .... .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. Moses Moorhouse and the Dinosaur Palace met at the end of 2008 through the BCFE music performance course in Dublin and formed out of a similar taste and a mutual respect for the art of Rock . The band first appear to be a rock outfit with giant hair and beards of Mountain men looking for mountain women, but Moses's original voice with the band's heavily original sound show that there is little point judging this book of rockin' out by its cover..... Moses Moorhouse, a singer/songwriter from the village of Gowran Co. Kilkenny, began writing songs when he was a wee lad. He earned local kudos, and quickly established himself as an artist playing gigs around Kilkenny town, learning his art, and gaining a reputation as an entertainer, a story teller, and a woeful dirty joke smith. With lyrical subject matter ranging from the absurd to the heartfelt, his quirky style of song writing is witty, and honest. His guitar playing is exclusively finger picked, and intricate. As for Moorhouse’ vocal style, with chocolate use of his falsetto, has been said to of gotten him laid twice… so far...On bass guitar is Jody LeRock, hailing from Rathfarnam, Dublin. He joined the Dinosaur Palace in October of 2008, and since then has been providing catchy, solid bass lines for the band. Drawing on influences from funk, indie, and soul music, LeRock adds a groove to the sound which brings it straight into the modern market. Currently his other projects include ‘Mar Mar sings‘, so he's lucky enough to actually be in the two best bands ever. When not playing bass, Jody plays Synth in the Band, adding an electro element to some of their songs. Jody once stormed the stage at a blink 182 gig and can cook a fantastic Beef Bourguignon while riding his new Polo of which he is very happy with... He's named her Greg. ..Duties of the electrical guitar variety are handled by Jon Barrett of Kildare. Having played in many rock outfits as a nipper, J.B played gigs around Leinster for the early years of his life, and completed a philosophy degree (for reasons still unreasoned), until meeting the D.P and joining at the beginning of 2009. His clean strat sound compliments nicely the finger style of Moorhouse. His Dreads are, by far, the sweetest dreads in Kildare town. But don't let the sweet ass dreads and pure metal head fool you, this man has more soul than a fish market! He is also a percussion player in Dublin acoustic trio ‘Bel Canto. ..The latest member in the D.P is Pat "Fluff" Byrne on drums. This giant beast of raw talent and imagination joined the band in September of 2009 and has been a major part of the bands ever developing sound. From the small town of Borris, Co. Carlow, Pat has been playing drums since he was 12 and is a tremendous player. Both he and Moses have known each other since they were chaps. Pat does not believe the name ,"Fluff" will catch on... But Moses thinks differently. ..Moses Moorhouse have played a wide range of gigs around the country such as "The Village", "Whelans", "The Pheonix" "Cleeres Kilkenny" and "The Button Factory" to name a few. An E.P will be released within the year. Audio/Video/Pictures@ www.myspace.com/mosesmoorhous .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .......... ..
