About Donnacha Toomey
Donnacha Toomey released his debut album "Carnival of Colours" in 2009. The album received much interest for its "judiciously crafted songs" and musicianship and was widely acclaimed in both Irish and International press. It quickly became a regular feature on well established RTE and BBC radio shows as well as a number of US folk stations.
"Carnival of Colours"-"Dappled jazz inflections, razor sharp melody, delightfully intricate guitar & trumpet set this collection apart from it's attention seeking peers"
THE IRISH TIMES
Toomey's second album "Level Crossing" has just been completed and is due for release in April 2012. His first single "Duty Free" has already been released. This will be closely followed by a second single "Head in the Clouds" in early February.
In 2005 Donnacha released "Reasons" a collection of songs which serves as an introduction to his rootsy acoustic guitar driven songs.
"Reasons"-"Thoughtful, intelligent songs-finely arranged & tastefully produced. Superb musicianship..I want to hear more"
