Live From The Union Chapel - Damien Rice

9 - Damien Rice

-DAMIEN RICE 9- Following the phenomenal success of his first album 0 in 2002, Damien Rice astounded us yet again in 2006 with his follow up album 9 . Having waited four years for this album to appear seemed like a lifetime and in a way I was in trepidation, fearing it couldn t possibly live up his breathtakingly beautiful album 0 . Damien Rice is an Irish folk singer from County Kildare, Ireland. His poetical lyrics and troubadour style have earned him his own unique niche in the music world. After only one album he is already a force to be reckoned with, with his dedication and commitment to his music, he is considered a lyrical genius, and a poet of our time.- ...

O - Damien Rice

The first time I heard anything about Damien Rice was when a colleague of mine appeared in work listening to this album. I am always open to new bands and new sounds, so after hearing him raving about this album for a day or so I decided I needed to check it out for myself.

A little research tells me that he released his debut single, The Blowers Daughter in 2002 and this is the Irish singer songwriters debut album which followed soon after. Rice writes from the heart,a style reminiscent of David Gray in recent times, but carrying on a thread that weaves back in time to Jeff Buckley, ...
