Who is it?
Home Stage is honoured to present a leading figure in Irish traditional music, the grammy nominated guitarist, producer, and songwriter, John Doyle. His fruitful career delving into the world of folk, Celtic and Bluegrass has seen him work alongside the likes of Liz Carroll, Eileen Ivers, Karan Casey, Solas, Mary Black, Joan Baez, and Mary Chapin Carpenter, to name a few.
What does he do?
John seamlessly blends an exquisite and technically formidable guitar style with a unique ability for storytelling to create a performance so powerful the audience is left entranced in its grasp. His talent has awarded him a reputation as one of the greatest Irish traditional guitarists of his time.
Not only performing as a soloist, but John is also a highly sought-after session musician, touring as guitarist for Mary Chapin Carpenter, Eileen Ivers, Tim O’Brien, Linda Thompson, Kate Rusby, Cathie Ryan and many more.
What's his story?
Son of folksinger Sean Doyle, Dublin-born John began life as a professional musician at the age of 16 with his stint in the folk band The Chanting House, alongside Susan McKeown. Following this, he united with Seamus Egan, John Williams, Karan Casey and Winifred Horan to form the Grammy-nominated band, Solas. Described as one of the most popular and influential Celtic bands to have emerged from the United States, Solas hosted sell-out national and international tours, appeared frequently on television and received 3 NAIRD awards.
Since Solas, John has continued to make waves on the folk scene with an array of different achievements. This includes acting as musical director for Joan Baez, composing for theatre and film, appearing regularly on radio and television, performing for former U.S. president Barack Obama, the entire U.S. Congress, current president Joe Biden and former Taoiseach Brian Cowen and receiving a Grammy nomination for "Best Traditional World Album" for ‘Double Play’ by John Doyle and Liz Carroll.
Tune in to witness the entrancing music of this artist as we discuss his views on folk music and performance. Streamed online on Tuesday 5th October from 8pm, and available on YouTube and Facebook immediately after airing.
