Thread Name: Help: Richie Kavanagh
Subject: Richie Kavanagh
Aha! I see we have some new Irishmen, or at least new to me, on board. I'm looking for some info on the Irish singer Richie Kavanagh, whom I brought up in an earlier thread.

Fer instance. Is he a guitarist? How popular is he across the pond in Ireland? I know he is a very funny man in his lyrics, and maybe not pure folk, but the production of his music is superb on the recordings, lots of fine musicianship and harmony vocals. Does he play with a steady band or solo? And how in the world does he sing two parts, at different times of course, in concert.

His 'Johnny Fagan' voice is really quite good in my opinion, I laugh just hearing it come in on a song. So clever.

Anyway, I've been provided with some info from the lovely Quincy here on the 'cat, and was hoping to discover some more from other sources.

Any help over there ladies and gents?

Thank You and "Aon Focal Eile"
