About Aodán Coyne
Aodán Coyne is an Irish singer-songwriter who has created his own modern acoustic sound.
““A singer capable of joining the ranks of the great Irish vocalists” – Folk World
Before beginning his solo career, Coyne made a name for himself as the guitarist and vocalist for the international touring Traditional Irish band Socks in the Frying Pan.
He first picked up a guitar at the age of 14 in his home town of Ennis, Co. Clare where he grew up listening to Jeff Buckley, John Martyn and Nick Drake. His Father’s collection of folk records helped instil a love for The Beatles, Steely Dan and Bob Dylan. He heard Eric Clapton’s “Unplugged ” album and this greatly inspired Coyne to focus more on acoustic music.
Having tackled dyslexia in his youth he honed a unique song writing style, in part to combat the stigma. He began crafting his own music throughout his teens which is rooted in folk and Trad. This was aided by a rich family tradition of playing Irish music.
In 2015, he toured Germany, and his debut solo effort, “If We Only Knew”, was released in Ireland later that year, with an American release following in early 2016.
“What might very well be the best CD release of the year” – Irish American News
“We could not recommend this CD more highly to you” – Live Ireland
Aodán has been writing his most recent album “Gaps Between Stars” on the outskirts of Ennis overlooking the lake of Ballyalla. A move Aodán himself refers to as “Just to get off the grid and write new music”. His current album sees him deal with broader issues than previous work including themes of implicit bias, depression, inequality and a sense of mortality.
He has a clear love for live performance where he now incorporates alternate guitar tunings, subtle effects and percussion. With his strong, warm vocals and a gift for building hooky folk songs his music is rich and refined.
“The album is beautifully and precisely prepared” – Bill Margeson
“This album will become a sought-after classic. Highly recommended.” – Atlantic weekly
