Paul Hourican's musical palette eloquently spans the spectrum from boldly convincing rock anthems that have been a likened to the likes of U2, The Doors, Coldplay and T-Rex to delicately heartfelt, magnificently crafted tunes the music world has compared to those of Damien Rice (whom Hourican has supported), Van Morrison, Ryan Adams, and David Gray. The critics have unanimously proclaimed that Hourican is indeed that rare artist who posses such natural talent he can pull off the rock, folk, and even pop genres wholeheartedly and with undeniable conviction. 2008 saw the release of Hourican's debut album 'Let The Enemy In', released on March 7th in Ireland through Hourican's own record label Hurricane Records and with exclusive distribution from Warner Music Ireland. It has been described by critics as 'unapologetically confident...exceptional' and 'Indestructible...as superb a debut as we've had', and has very much established Hourican as a musical force to be reckoned with. Hailing from Dublin, on the album as on stage, Hourican is joined by some of Ireland’s finest musicians including legendary guitarist Conor Brady (The Blades, The Corrs, Jerry Fish), bassist Shane Fitzsimons (Damien Rice, Paddy Casey), drummer Steve Hogan (Hal, The Carnival Saloon) and keyboardist Derek Cronin (Sinead O'Connor). With live performances promising authoritative, emotionally arresting, honest and soulful delivery of, as of yet, untouched gems, and every throaty syllable surrendering to and serving the song, not just the singer, Hourican is one not to be missed!
