Kevin Glavin

Kevin Glavin Interview Friday 21st Oct 2011

Today I had the pleasure of chatting with 21 year old singer/songwriter Kevin Glavin from Cork. Kevin who has been singing and writing since the age of 17 would be known for being the recent winner of Corks got talent 2010. With influences which can be heard heavily in both his style of writing and playing, from the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Neil Young and Tom Waits Kevin is on the right track. So it was with great expectations I started talking to Kevin about his music.

Eva Porter 2011

Eva Porter interview Friday Oct 14th 2011

Well after a long spell I decided it was time to invite Eva back into the studio once again to see how she is getting on since we last spoke.First and foremost I must stress I am a big Eva Porter fan, so this report may be biased but hey its my blog. now the wonderful Eva Porter for those that might not know is a very talented singer songwriter from Carrigtwohill in County Cork. What made this lady so special in the first instance was her desire to write some songs, record an album, sing on it and release it to the world. Nothing special in that you may say well you would be wrong, the reason it was so significant is simple, She had never sang in public, she had never recorded before, and in the music world she had left it a lot later then many other singer songwriters to start her musical journey.
