“A hundred thousand welcomes !” … as we say in Ireland when welcoming someone.

I already said it for 2018 but 2019 was a brilliant year for me and was probably the most interesting year I have had professionaly so far with a great mix of interesting shows and the chance to play with lots of different and talented musicians, both well known and not.

Some were my music heros, like Paul Brady, Luka Bloom and Johnny Logan, others well respected individuals like Irelands President, Michael D. Higgins. Through my escalating work with the Irish Embassy here in Germany and with the Irish Food Board, Bord Bia, plus my annual “Irish Night” Hamburger Hafenkonzert St. Patricks Day show with NDR 90,3 in Hamburg, I have never felt more Irish and more proud to be so.

Long indeed may it continue !
