Roesy
Roesy, who hails from Birr, Co Offaly, has had music coursing through his veins since his early years. From singing along to his father’s records, Roesy moved on to writing lyrics which soon turned into songs once he taught himself to play guitar. Roesy appeared in the first Other Voices TV series on RTE. He was nominated for Best New Irish Act in the 2004 Meteor Music Awards and listed in the Best Trad/ Folk section of the Annual Hot Press Awards 2005.
His song ‘Potosi Mine’ was included in the ‘Diamond Mountain Session Presents’ compilation CD, also featuring Sinead O’Connor, Steve Earle, Natalie Merchant and Sharon Shannon. Roesy, filled with stunning vocals and uplifting songs will soothe the soul and warm the heart.
