Background
From a small town in Co.Offaly
emerged a singer songwriter with a difference. From an early age this young man showed great interest and potential in music, showing talents for playing guitar, bass, flute and percussion. As time passed he became
more diversified and experimental in his playing and style. As nature
would have it he became more creative with each passing year and soon he
was writing his own music and lyrics. Many early songs emerged as he
progressed from the bedroom to centre stage and public appearances became
a regular occurence in his local area. He moved to Paris and spent 3 years
living in the french capital soaking up the culture and language. On
returning to Ireland he moved to Dublin with the aim of gaining further
recognition, which brings us here today for the unveiling of something
new, diverse, exciting, energetic, passionate... ladies and gentlemen we
are here to present the music of Wayne Brennan! |

Style
A self taught player who has a
progressive and energetic style of guitar playing. From early learning he progressed in areas of thrash metal, then came the era of grunge music.
However, he more or less abandoned his electric guitar for the acoustic guitar, feeling that he could understand more the clear undistorted
calming sounds of the clean acoustic guitar. Artists such as Hendrix, Knopfler, Clapton opened his eyes to potential methods and he became
fascinated with the unlimited well of creativity in finding one's own style of playing. Today we can hear influences of flamenco, blues,
blue-grass, reggae, country, rock and pop in his songs.We encourage you to listen to the sample of "And I Love" or "Green Green Grass" if you like uptempo
feel good love songs or if you would prefer a more mellow tune then listen to "Moving Me" and you are sure to be moved yourself! This piece should
certainly make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end! There is no more I can say at this point, except don't come this far without
sampling a track or two!!
Enjoy... |
