Tanya Louise

This week I had the pleasure of sitting in the studio chatting to local singer songwriter Tanya Louise. It was one of those days where I was feeling lazy and relaxed and Tanya was laid back and relaxed herself so the interview turned into more of a chat then your typical music interview.  She brought into the studio some copies of her new CD "Better in Twos" All tracks on the CD were written and recorded by Tanya and she plays acoustic guitar on it. Tanya Louise was born in Cork City, Ireland and at 18 years of age her composure and song writing style is that of a more mature writer, She has an elegance and innocence in her writing that also contains a steely reserve and adds great depth to each of the songs. .  From Tanya's early childhood she showed a love and passion for music.



Tanya covers many styles of song from old Irish ballads, Jazz, rock classics and modern day hits. Tanya also has a lovely range of original music. Tanya is in constant demand. Her unique guitar skills and sweet melodic voice captivates her audiences at every venue. Her influences are varied with a long list of name including Nirvana, Charlie Winston, Furey's, Dubliners, Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, Tom Petty, The Pogue's. The list goes on and on.

Tanya can be seen playing in one of Corks premier music venues The LV bar so keep an eye out for her in the local press for details on her gigs.  Currently Tanya is running a Wed night showcase where she along with other great musical guest will entertain the audience at the LV in a unique styled, fun night, filled with great music.
