Belfast Singer & Songwriter
Padraig Lalor

Reviews

"Padraig Lalor is set to become one of the foremost folk singer/songwriters of his generation". Alison O' Riordan Irish Post

"All the songs reveal Lalor’s gift as a storyteller, with intriguing lyrics woven around instantly appealing melodies that stick in the mind after just one hearing". Pat Kehoe Irish Music Forever

"All are amazing stories put into song by Padraig Lalor and his band. I found this album and its content very moving". Peter Massey Green Man Review

"Lalor's band combines the foundation of rock with the tradition of folk music and his songs are literate but direct: sometimes dramatic - "Molly Brown" for example - and sometimes melancholy as with "Close your eyes" on which Lowri Evans takes the lead". R2

His solo material has a familiar feel to it. Songs like Two Pennies and Rinty Monaghan are the kind of songs you'll swear you've heard before.

It's not that they are 'like' anything else and they are not overly derivative but they are very much rooted in a folk tradition while also managing to exude a freshness that appeals".
