Influences
Influenced?...Occasionally and only by the best. The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Chrissie Hynde, Dolly Parton, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Eva Cassidy, Cat Stevens, Jeff Buckley, Genesis, ACDC... and from this point on it gets more bizarre, more eclectic and possibly more confusing for even me to understand! Gloriously fascinated with the classic writers Gershwin, Cole Porter, Kander & Ebb and especially the very clever Stephen Sondheim and Elvis Costello. Then there's all the rest...although none of this is in any particular order - Elvis, The Beatles, Doris Day & Rod Steward for his writing rather than tight trews!
For Dublin born singer songwriter, Viv Youell, the release of her debut album Firelogic was all about passion and dedication - to the songs, to herself and to the story.

Thanks Viv, that's very kind. I wish I had the talent to write like you do. We must find you a nice friendly studio so you can do some more recordings!
Let's have some more gigs from you in 2009 (you're far too talented to hide your light under the proverbial bushel). Very best wishes to young maestro Richard as well!
Hi Viv Spooky indeed! From the first time I heard Loftholdingswood I was hooked by Cathal's voice and music - Microdisney were one of my favourite bands of that era and I've followed the splinter groups ever since Thank you for such a timely reminder... Cheers Neil
