Gerry O'Beirne
Gerry O'Beirne is a renowned singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist (6 and 12 string guitar, tiple, and ukulele, slide guitar among others), born in Ennis, County Clare, along Ireland's music-rich west coast. Gerry grew up in Ireland and in Ghana in West Africa, and has since lived in England, California, and Mexico. Gerry's own compositions blend the passion found in traditional music with the freshness of contemporary song.

Many of his songs have been embraced by the contemporary folk community. Maura O'Connell recorded Half Moon Bay, Western Highway, Shades of Gloria, and The Isle of Malachy. Mary Black recorded The Holy Ground as a title track and Andy Irvine recorded it with Patrick Street. Cathie Ryan recorded Shades of Gloria and The Lights of San Francisco. Muireann Nic Amhloaibh has recorded Western Highway and The Isle Of Malachy on her album daybreak: fainne an lae.

Gerry has toured the globe as a solo artist and with the Sharon Shannon Band, Patrick Street, Midnight Well, Andy M. Stewart, Kevin Burke, Andy Irvine, and the Waterboys. He has performed at the White House, opened for the Grateful Dead, and played electric guitar with Marianne Faithfull. He composed and recorded the score to River of Dreams, an artistic response to the River Shannon commissioned by the Irish Department of Arts and Heritage, and he has written music for film and theater.

Gerry has appeared on Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion. His performance of Western Highway was chosen as an audio highlight on A Prairie Home Companion's website: Gerry O'Beirne on Prairie Home Companion.

As a producer, Gerry has a large number of albums to his credit, including Promenade by Kevin Burke and Michael O'Dhomhnaill (winner of the Grand Prix Du Disque at Montreux), Irish Times by Patrick Street, Man in the Moon and Donegal Rain by Andy M. Stewart, First Foooting by Anam, The Connaughtman's Rambles by Martin O'Conner, Up Close by Kevin Burke, Lifting the Veil and Sacred Space by Fiona Joyce, To Anyone At All by Clandestine, Fine Small Storm by Jen Hamel, The Willow by E. J. Jones, Silver Hook Tango by Australian singer-songwriter Kavisha Mazella, When Two Lovers Meet by Sarah McQuaid and most recently Lumina by Irish piper, low whistle player, and composer Eoin Duignan, which was hailed "a stunning achievement" by Hot Press, Ireland's foremost music magazine.

Gerry's first solo album, Half Moon Bay, featured his own songs and instrumental compositions. Half Moon Bay was citied as one of the 12 best releases of the year by Performing Songwriter magazine and was chosen as one of Folkworld's Top Ten Albums of the year. He has now released his second album The Bog Bodies And Other Stories: Music For Guitar, which was named CD of the Month on the radio show Echoes.

Gerry has toured recently in Holland, Australia, New Zealand and the USA, performed solo at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC, and has taught musical composition from visual art at Swananoa Music Camp. He is currently at work on an album with fiddler Rosie Shipley.
