Carried By Waves at Cork Opera House

The sound of CARRIED BY WAVES has been described by critics as "sublime, beautifully crafted, euphoric, lush, astral, dreamy, textured, layered, engrossing, uplifting, gorgeous, organic-electronic pop music".
It is an Irish based, audio/visual project and the product of a life long obsession with an eclectic range of musical influences. The music itself is a
collage of layered, ethereal guitars, synths and vocals, fused with complex drum rhythms, and hypnotic catchy bass loops.

Last year was a busy one for CARRIED BY WAVES, and one marked by progress. A debut show in January 2011 was closely followed by a performance as part of Ireland's 'First Music Contact' tour, and in August he was among the acts chosen to play at the 'Hard Working Class Heroes' festival in Dublin (2011 & 2012). This run of shows was topped off in September of the same year by a slot at the internationally acclaimed music festival 'The Electric Picnic' in Co. Laois. These performances gained critical acclaim with the likes of leading Irish magazine 'Hot
Press', as well as various online blogs such as 'Entertainment.ie', 'Drop-D', and 'We Are Noise' among others, and led to an artist profile segment on prominent Dublin radio station 'Phantom FM'. In addition, various Carried By Waves tracks received regular national airplay on Dan Hegarty's '2FM' show 'The Alternative'. The year was rounded off by a live recording session at 2FM for the same show.
