Synopsis

Album Description
Platinum selling artist Damien Dempsey is from Donaghmede on Dublin's Northside. Damien?s earliest musical influences were the post-pub singsongs that his parents used to have at their home when he was a toddler. Today his unique sound reflects the influence of traditional Sean-Nós, as well as his musical heroes: Bob Marley and Elvis Presley. Produced by John Reynolds (Sinead O?Connor, John Spillane, Hothouse Flowers), Shots entered the Irish album charts at Number 1 and achieved platinum status in December 2005. In February 2006 Damien won the Meteor Award for the Best Irish Male category.

"I got this CD right after visiting Ireland... and I was so thrilled to listen to something that captured Ireland better than just the Irish Pub songs... Not that I do not like them, but this is just another WONDERFUL take on Ireland, not as hard as the punk sound, but definitely more in the rock area than the pub songs..."
