Gavin Moore

Gavin Moore interview 20th Sept 2010.

Born into what is arguably Ireland’s most famous music family, Gavin Moore, who spoke with Shane Supple this week on Youghal radio, respects the influences of his uncles Christy Moore and Luka Bloom, but musically, this singer songwriter is most definitely his own man. Gavin started playing guitar when he was 16 and in turn started singing at the same time accompanying himself as he learned new songs. Like most people he then progressed to writing his own songs, and then some years ago he attended Coláiste Stiofáin Naofa in Cork where he further honed his songwriting skills.
