This is Kieran Halpin playing ...

... at the Star Folk Club in Glasgow. As ever with Kieran it was a case of man, guitar and music battling with each other like a mini world war - a real ‘used in anger’ performance. Kieran has a harsh, gravelly voice and a powerful delivery. He is the only singer I know who can make a love song sound like he hates the world - a superb songwriter and a great guy. Brilliant night.
