David Geraghty

Bell X1's David Geraghty released his debut solo album Kill Your Darlings in 2007, to huge critical and fan acclaim. No stranger to the scene David had been quietly collecting an expansive and diverse collection of songs. His solo work has a flavour all of its own in the mix as well as taking influences from his band mates.

Encompassing smoky club jazz, twee power pop, and college radio Americana. The mesmerizing mix calls to mind the work of Jeff Buckley and Nick Drake at times, and childhood idols David Bowie and Bruce Springsteen at others.

The album was nominated for a Choice Music Prize for Irish Album of the Year and in both Best Irish Album and Best Irish Male in the Meteor Ireland Music Awards. September 2009 will see Geraghty return with his second solo offering The Victory Dance, engineered & co-produced by Greg French (U2, Van Morrison, Brian Eno and Placebo). David Geraghty will be showcasing tracks from The Victory Dance at Electric Picnic.

"David Geraghty has created an album full of heart and soul with a delicate layer of hope. Coupled with his velvety husky voice, Kill All Your Darlings is a little gem" - www.analoguemagazine.com
