Years ago, when times were simpler and we had time to regularly see multiple friends and have parties and go to them, two of the great hosts were Emer and David Singleton.
David had a great line in Beatles and Bob Dylan songs; he knew every damn one of them by heart and assumed I did too. I didn’t, of course. I’ve a terrible memory. Inevitably, though, I ended up doing the harmonies and by default actually learned a few songs. We even sang at a wedding!

Now, a new generation has emerged and David and Emer’s sons are artists in their own right. One of them, Chris Singleton, is a highly-praised solo recording artist who writes his own material, and is downloadable from iTunes. You can sample - and buy - his album Twisted City, here. If you like his sound and you’re in Dublin, go along and hear him at Crawdaddy’s in Harcourt Street on Wednesday 18th April @20.30. Should be a good night.
