Music of Modern life in an aged Folk/Americana sound.
O´Reilly studied Music Technology and Sonic Art at Queen’s Belfast Sonic Art Research Centre which has seen many standout acts pass through its doors. During his time there, he honed his craft, and now continues to do so on the London live scene. Previous Releases - ´Young O’Reilly´, ‘Australia´ and ‘Easy’ - received a number of glowing reviews. He is hoping to bring something truly brilliant and unique with his fourth release, ‘The Frontier Three.’ The narrative album explores mid 1800s America, when modernity pushed West and the foundation of the US was formed. The stories tell of the trouble and strife faced, with vocals hitting like a bullet, guitar riffs that bite like a rattlesnake and drumming that kicks like a mule. ‘The Frontier Three’ stems from a childhood spent watching way too much American television, books given to EJ by his grandfather and a fascination with the Wild West. The release date for the album will be in early 2020.
