Ruarri Joseph, Mark O’Reilly, Geva Alon
Ruarri Joseph, the indie-folk sensation, often likened to Tom Waits, Cat Stevens and even Dylan, will be releasing his much anticipated new album ‘Brother’. His latest offering showcases his subtlety in a way not heard before. His rich baritone voice floating right out of the speakers and into your soul, the lyrics possessing a wisdom that wouldn’t seem out of place next to Johnny Cash or Joni Mitchell, there’s no doubt that this is a performer set to be around for years to come.
“One of our best songwriters and lyricists” – The Times
“As wise as a 70 year old Johnny Cash” – NME
“Genius…a breath of the freshest air” – Observer
“Like a modern Cat Stevens” – Paolo Nutini
“Stunning” – Claudia Winkleman, BBC Radio2

‘My Friend Marx’ is Marc O’Reilly’s debut album; it’s already created a stir in his native Ireland. We think Marc is destined to ride the new wave of Irish international breakthrough artists in the acoustic genre. Marc is now touring his album, which is scheduled for UK release on August 6th.
‘A stunning set of tunes’– R2 Magazine
‘Sensational, Irish music has a new star’ – Roots & Fusion
Marc’s sound is inspired folk ‘n’ blues with African percussive rhythms. It’s right there between old American folk-blues & The Black keys ~ Andy McKee & Tom Waits. As a live performer he already has an intense and spellbinding reputation, as a songwriter he stands out as unique and moving talent and as a voice he is both urgent and persuasive in the same breath. At the end of it all Marc is a contender.

“Absolutely Brilliant” – Bob Harris BBC Radio 2
“Energetic, Charismatic and soulful” – Time Out
“Alon’s voice has a timeless, ageless quality, a soothing tuneful tenor voice – the kind that nobody bothers with anymore. ‘Get Closer’ is haunting and brooding, yet simmers with an intensity and wild energy”. – Americana Uk
“We’re hooked. After a gentle dreamy start, it drifts into something more powerful, from Neil Young to REM.” – Music week
“Alon resonant voice ranges from rich Tom Rush baritone (‘Here Comes The Tune’) to Neil Young falsetto (‘The Wind Whispers’)” – Uncut magazine
“Geva Alon, the Singer/Songwriter from Israel creates impressive atmospheres with his guitar and convinces with his voice” – Guitar magazine
