Sunday 3rd April was my first solo Dublin show of 2016, and it was a cracker!  The mighty Jonathan of Ernesto’s Cafe in Rathmines very kindly gave over his cafe to me last night for the gig.  Tickets sold out last weekend and the night was a huge success!  My friend James Cramer joined me for one of the songs we co-wrote together and the amazing, slightly ragged (his own words), Glen Hansard jumped up and ‘sang for the flag’.   Check out the photos and setlist below!
